NBA DFS 2/6 — PG

Coby White, CHI (vs. NO) – DK $3,800

We’ve got alot of higher-priced guys in the Fearless Five this week, so I’m starting offwith a value play who’s been known to have massive upside when the opportunity presentsitself. Kris Dunn is out (sprained MCL) for tonight’s tilt with New Orleans andTomas Satoransky is playing with an ankle injury, so we could see biggerminutes (25+) from White in a plus matchup at home. If you can afford LonzoBall, he’s a solid play at $6,900, and we could always pivot to Bryn Forbes – aSpurs guard who benefits from an excellent matchup with the Blazers.

Pivot/Stack: Bryn Forbes/Lonzo Ball

NBA DFS 2/6 — SG

Zach Lavine, CHI (vs. NO) – DK $8,400

There aren’t too many healthy scorers available for the Bulls, andLavine is the kind of guy who could go for 40+ real-life points and 60+ DKpoints in a matchup like this. Spending down to C.J. McCollum make sense if you’relooking to attack the Spurs, and it makes sense to get some exposure to Josh Hartin NO-CHI game stacks. James Harden is $12,400 on DK, and while he’s always athreat to go off, the matchup is a tougher one, so I’ll be fading him save fora few wild lineups and HOU-LAL game stacks in multi-entry.

Pivot/Stack: C.J. McCollum/Josh Hart

NBA DFS 2/6 — SF

LeBron James, LAL (vs. HOU) – DK $10,400

If you can afford LBJ tonight,he could be worth it – considering the Rockets yield decent fantasy points todistributors and versatile forwards. Anthony Davis is currently probable (andjust $9,700) with his typical shoulder soreness, and this may be a rareopportunity where you could roster both. Still – keep any eye on the injurynews leading up to lock and strongly consider King James regardless of AD’sstatus. If for some reason AD can’t go or is limited, then we can play both Jamesand Kyle Kuzma.

Pivot/Stack: Aaron Gordon/Kyle Kuzma

NBA DFS 2/6 — PF

Zion Williamson, NO (@ CHI) – DK $7,700

The price on Zion has risen,but this is by far the best spot he’s had in his young pro career to dominatefrom a DFS perspective. The Bulls are going to have massive problems containingthe rookie, who is nursing a minor toe injury that shouldn’t keep him fromregistering a double-double and filling up the stat sheet. Julius Randle shouldbe considered a high-upside, low-owned GPPs option as well in this price range andstacking the NO-CHI game provides an opportunity to roster Thaddeus Young – who’sin a great spot with so many Bulls PFs injured.

Pivot/Stack: Julius Randle/Thaddeus Young

NBA DFS 2/6 — C

Brook Lopez, MIL (vs. PHI) – DK $5,200

Lopez has been postingdecent numbers lately despite a horrible shooting percentage (1-for-15 from 3PTrange in his last three games), and if he gets 30 minutes and can knock down acouple of bombs, he’s a solid bet to make 7x value in a game where the Sixersare going to do everything they can to stop Giannis. It’s a tough matchup onpaper, which is why I love him for GPPs where he could see low ownership. LMA(eligible at PF/C/F/UTIL) vs. his old team the Blazers makes for an interestingpivot given his cheap price and putrid output against the Lakers Tuesday night.

Pivot/Stack: LaMarcus Aldridge/Joel Embiid
