Tuesday NBA DFS Schedule
LA Clippers at Dallas, 8:30 PM Eastern
Clippers at a Glance: 4th in scoring (116.2), 14th in scoring defense (109.2), 5th in offensive rating (112.9), 7th in defensive rating (106.6), 7th in pace (102.6).
Stud: PF Kawhi Leonard ($16,500/FD). Dud: PF Montrezl Harrell ($12,000/FD). Sleeper: C Ivica Zubac ($8500/FD).
Obviously, the Clippers anchor is Leonard, who has scored at least 60 FDP in three of his last five games. Leonard is also averaging 36 points per game over the past five contests. The rebounding numbers for Harrell have tailed off a bit since his strong start, but he is averaging better than 20 points per game this month. Zubac has shown flashes of his upside. This feels like the type of game where his value will be off the charts.
Mavericks at a Glance: 3rd in scoring (116.7), 13th in scoring (109.4), 1st in offensive rating (117.5), 17th in defensive rating (110.1), 22nd in pace (98.6).
Stud: PG Luka Doncic ($17,500/FD). Dud: PF Kristaps Porzingis ($12,500/FD). Sleeper: C Dwight Powell ($10,000/FD).
Doncic. Period. End of story. I cannot see him with fewer than 60 FDP tonight, especially since the Mavs had Monday off. Porzingis is a GTD, yet the Mavericks are insisting he will play. The rust will be there, and the matchup against Harrell makes it likely he falls into the 25-30 FDP range. Like his Clippers counterpart, Powell is in position to be a DFS show stealer tonight. I think the scoring will be there, yet if Powell can get 8-10 rebounds, he will fall into the 32-35 FDP side of things.
