NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3

Welcome in to my inaugural version of NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3! This article is scheduled to be roughly 2-3 times a week for now, and we’ll discuss game environments, totals, pace and other fun stuff to help set the lineups. We have a five game slate where 1-2 games really stand out but let’s not ignore the other three!

Nuggets vs Thunder, O/U of 218

Thunder -6

Pace – Nuggets -29th, Thunder 21st

Nuggets – Out – Will Barton, Gary Harris Questionable – Jamal Murray

I wouldn’t be banking on Murray here as he’s “very questionable”. At best, he might be limited so he seems like an easy avoid. That does leave us with some value plays in Monte Morris and Michael Porter Jr., but they didn’t endear themselves to anyone the first go around.

Both players were under 30 minutes and Porter battled foul trouble throughout the game. With Aaron Holiday the same price as Morris, the only argument to be made is ownership and I’d rather eat the chalk. Morris only had a 0.94 DKPM without the missing pieces and barely cleared a 21% usage rate.

Porter is a little cheaper but even in the same scenario, he was at a 1.08 DKPM. If he managed 32 DK points he would return value but it’s not a good matchup via FantasyPros DvP. The Thunder were in the top 10 against either forward position.

Nikola Jokic laid an egg the first game with under 40 DK points and draws a mediocre matchup. I think the most disappointing part was just 16 shot attempts for a team that was missing so much scoring. If paying up for center, I’d much rather Joel Embiid today.

Players to Consider in Cash – None

Players to Consider in GPP – Jokic, Porter, Morris

Thunder – No injuries

It can be a little difficult to get the right Thunder player on the right night. In the first game inside the bubble, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander paced the team with just under 40 DK. That’s not the 6x mark we look for at a minimum and the Thunder seasonal stats illustrate why it’s tough to pick just one.

The quartet of Chris Paul, SGA, Dennis Schroder and Danilo Gallinari all have usage rates between 23.3% and 27.2%. Schroder has the most usage but that’s with him coming off the bench. No player averages more than Pauls 1.17 DKPM, which generally caps them. The Nuggets allow the 10th highs 3 point frequency, so you could try to get Gallo in the right spot I suppose.

Players To Consider in Cash – None

Players to Consider in GPP – SGA, Gallo, CP3, Schroder

Takeaway – The first game we take about in NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3 is not that great. Both of these teams are in the bottom 10 in pace and top 10 in points allowed on the year. Denver is a good bit weaker so you could try to play some Thunder, but I’m not over the moon about any pricing here. It’s most likely a fade for me.

Pacers vs Wizards, O/U of 227.5

Pacers – 7.5

Pace – Pacers 23rd, Wizards 5th

Pacers – Out – Domantas Sabonis, Jeremy Lamb Questionable – Victor Oladipo, Malcolm Brogdon

Indy is very shorthanded, having only played nine players in the first game and now they will almost certainly be without Dipo as well. He’s sitting out one of their back to back games and he played 32 minutes Saturday, so the math seems simple here. Brogdon missed the Sunday walkthrough so we’re assuming he is out as well.

That could mean we’ll see about an eight man rotation for the Pacers against the team that gives up the second-most points in the league. Yes, please. The main two targets for everyone likely will be TJ Warren off a 53 real point game and Aaron Holiday. I certainly won’t talk you out of those at all and I think they could be cash staples.

One player that might not get the attention he should is Myles Turner. Listen, he’s been mostly irrelevant for DFS through this season but Washington gets hammered by centers with the second-most DK points given up per game. Turner also averages 1.25 DKPM and over two blocks a game (sixth-most) and the Wizards drive as a team about 46 times a game. He could be a monster especially on FD where blocks are three points.

Don’t forget about T.J. McConnell and Doug McDermott for value in GPP either. The usage was nothing special for either, not above 18.5% but McConnell averaged over 1.00 DKPM and McDermott checked in at 0.82. If Dougie McBuckets gets hot from the field, he could smash value.

Players to Consider in cash – Warren, Aaron Holiday, Myles Turner

Players to Consider in GPP – McDermott, McConnell

Wizards – None

Well, the Wizards don’t have any new injuries. They are without some of their best players but they have been since they entered the bubble. I am curious to see if they limit anyone on a back to back like a Thomas Bryant or a Rui Hachimura, but that’s a guess at best right now.

Hachimura finally came down to a price where you could at least look at him but he’s not of a major interest to me still. Another player that I have no real interest in chasing after a 50 burger is Troy Brown Jr. He had such an outlier game with rebounds and assists that it seems silly to think anything close happens again.

My favorite target from the Wizards remains Ish Smith, who has played about 28 minutes both games and cleared 30 DK points in both games. This shouldn’t be a huge surprise with Smith owning a 26.8% usage rate and a 1.12 DKPM in the Wizards situation.

Players To Consider in Cash – Smith, Bryant if he’s not limited

Players To Consider in GPP – Brown, Rui

Takeaways – The Pacers should pick up steam as chalk and to me are the good version of chalk. I think Warren and A. Holiday end up as some of the highest owned players on the slate and totally get it. Turner is super interesting to me as well. If game stacking, I’m really just focused on running it back with Ish and Bryant. This could easily be the highest scoring game on the day.

Grizzlies vs Pelicans, O/U of 236.5

Pelicans -4.5

Pace – Grizzlies 7th, Pelicans 3rd

Grizzlies – Out – Justice Winslow

Memphis walks into this game healthy and this is the main even of the slate. Both teams need this game badly in the race for the 8 seed, it’s the highest O/U on the day by almost 10 points and both teams play at a high pace. I find myself agreeing with Brian and his awesome Picks and Pivots today (as usual). The main trio here for me is Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Dillon Brooks.

Morant has been excellent so far, coming close to 50 DK points in both bubble games. With his price just not moving, I pretty much just want to lock in his 26.4% usage rate and 1.13 DKPM. Despite Jrue Holiday on the other side, New Orleans gave up the eighth-most DK points to PG’s this season.

JJJ is never a comfortable cash play with his foul issues, but this seems like a good exception spot. He’s played 35 and 43 minutes (OT game) so far and has managed to not foul out. These games are right in his wheel house and he’s right behind Morant with a 24.2% usage rate. If you MME, it’s never a bad idea to have Brandon Clarke shares if Jackson fouls.

Lastly for me, Brooks might be the butt of the jokes after his performance yesterday but this is a good bounce back spot. He somehow is second on the team in usage rate at 25.1% and he’s shown he’s not afraid to shoot. He’s hoisted 36 shots in two games and can get hot in a hurry.

The one player I’m undecided on is Jonas Valanciunas. He’s 10th in points in the paint per game but New Orleans actually gives up the sixth-fewest points in the paint in the NBA. If JoVal can keep up, he could be a sneaky target but he could also have a tough time.

Players to Consider in Cash – Morant, JJJ, Brooks

Players to Consider in GPP – JoVal, Clarke

Pelicans – None

One of the biggest keys of the slate as of this writing is Zion Williamson. He could be off the minutes restriction and I’m all in if so because he is ticked about not playing. If the Pelicans want that 8 seed, they’ll let him play. Zion could still be limited to 15 minutes or so, and then we’re back to the rest of the Pelicans main trio.

When Zion is off the floor, all three of Jrue Holiday, Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball are over 1.00 DKPM. Ingram and Holiday have the bulk of the usage at 28.1% and 26.1% respectively. The prices for these players certainly aren’t cheap but they’re going against the team that gives up the 10th most points in the league. The fact that Lonzo and Jrue have been quiet could lead to some depressed ownership as well.

You can make an argument for JJ Redick in GPP since he can obviously shoot the lights out and the Grizzlies give up the sixth-most three point attempts on the year. On a slate without a lot of obvious value, you could do worse.

Players to Consider in Cash – Ingram, Holiday, Ball (Zion if he’s full go is my first choice)

Players to Consider in GPP – Redick

Takeaways – This game is the crown jewel of NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3. If you don’t have three or four pieces of this game in cash, I think you’ll be far behind the field. The two main Pacers and this game is the safest cash build on the day.

Spurs vs Sixers, O/U of 227.5

Sixers -7.5

Pace – Spurs 15th, Sixers 19th

Spurs – None

If you’ve played DFS for any amount of time, you know Spurs coach Gregg Popovich can be a pain on back to backs. They still could get into the playoffs so I’m not sure if he pulls anything, just be ready to adjust if he does.

I really find myself not that interested in the Spurs today. I suppose you can still play Lonnie Walker Jr. and I suspect his 25 minutes yesterday were a soft limit to play some today. We don’t have a lot of value and he can pay off if he shoots well.

Past that, it’s a tough sell. The Sixers give up the seventh-fewest points in the league and Dejounte Murray could see some Ben Simmons. He’s another candidate for lower minutes today. DeMar DeRozan is far too expensive for my tastes and Jacob Poeltl has a very high chance of foul trouble against Embiid.

Players to Consider in Cash – None

Players to Consider in GPP – Walker, Murray

Sixers – None

A loss to the shorthanded Pacers was not what the Sixers were looking for to start the bubble. Their prices have shot up and that’s making them tough to get behind, at least on DK.

Embiid was an absolute terror against the Pacers and went for over 80 DK points. He would be my primary target and I wonder if he goes lower owned if people spend in the Memphis game. San Antonio was average to good in the paint for points and rebounds, but that was with LaMarcus Aldridge and it’s Biid. He’s going to eat Poeltl as long as this game stays close, which it will because it’s the Sixers.

Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris aren’t really on my radar that much. Harris is a little more scoring dependent than I care for over $8,000 (he scored 30 real points and barely hit 45 DK the first game) while Simmons will likely be capped by Embiid. Al Horford isn’t remotely in consideration in a bench role at $7,500.

Players to Consider in Cash – Embiid

Players to Consider in GPP – Simmons, Harris

Takeaway – This game doesn’t do much for me outside of Embiid. The pace is mediocre at best and the Sixers are generally good defensively when it’s not TJ Warren. This seems like a quality fade.

Lakers vs Jazz, O/U of 217

Lakers -6

Lakers – Questionable – LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Kyle Kuzma

There’s no expectations that anyone misses this games so let’s assume the Lakers are full go. There’s really only four players that I’m looking at in this tilt.

Both LeBron and AD are good at basketball, #Analysis. They both are over 1.40 DKMP and over a 29% usage, with Bron leading in both categories. If you subscribe to Rudy Gobert at least being a pain for AD, that could certainly lead you to just play LeBron and I would agree. I doubt either one comes in very high owned, which makes them interesting in GPP especially.

On the value side, we can look at Dion Waiters and Kyle Kuzma. Waiter has played about 22 minutes in both games and scored over 20 DK points, which is acceptable for his price and he has the ability to score in bunches. It’s kind of the same for Kuzma, who has looked really good in the bubble and has averaged about 30 minutes with his 0.87 DKPM.

Players To Consider in Cash – LeBron, AD

Players To Consider in GPP – Waiter, Kuzma ( I can see Waiters in cash at $3,200 on DK)

Jazz – Out – Bojan Bogdanovic

On the flip side of this game, there’s really not much. Donovan Mitchell is coming off a terrible game with under 20 DK and this matchup isn’t going to help. Shooting guards have scored the sixth-fewest real points against the Lakers and the third-fewest DK points. That’s a pretty easy no thank you in my mind.

Likewise, Rudy Gobert draws about the toughest matchup he could on paper. The Lakers are the best team in the NBA as far as points and rebounds given up in the paint. Considering Gobert is fourth in paint touches and does all his work there, I have virtually no interest.

Even the secondary pieces like Mike Conley and Jordan Clarkson seem a little pricey for their potential against the team that gave up the second-fewest real points all season.

Players to Consider in Cash – None

Players to Consider in GPP – Mitchell, Clarkson just for scoring ability.

Takeaway – This is pretty clearly the “worst” game for NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3. Both of these teams are inside the top 10 in points given up and and defensive rating. The best argument to be made is an ownership play in MME.

MKF Pick for 8/3

We’re going for the More or Less 5x and we’ll stick with the juiciest game on the slate, Grizzlies vs Pelicans. Let’s get to the cherry on top for NBA Games to Target for Monday 8/3.

I’m going over on all three of these. For starters, Morant has cleared that mark in both games so far. Ingram has only cleared it in one but he’s going to have so many scoring opportunities that he should approach 30 real points. Finally, Jrue is going to be on the court for nearly 40 minutes and racks up stats all over the board, including steals.

Cash Game NBA Breakdown For 8.3

Good Morning Win Daily family! It’s hot and heavy across the board for MLB and NBA. Last night our score totals where massive due to guys like Thomas Bryant and Troy Brown Jr. going off for between 10-12x their price value on Draftkings! We have some pretty fun contests to look at on this five-game slate including a 237.5 implied total that we can choose from for our cash game plays so let us get into my FanDuel/Draftkings Cash Game NBA Breakdown For 8.3

Guards:

Ja Morant, Grizzlies, 7.3K (DK)/7.5K (FD):

Let us start on that 237 total game with Ja Morant on for the Grizzlies. Both teams like to push the pace and there is not an ounce of defense to be found anywhere in this game. He’s seen 37 and 41 minutes respectively in his first two games back scoring 47.25 and 48.25 DK points through a combination of scoring and peripheral stats. No reason to think he won’t continue the trend.

Ish Smith, Wizards, 4.7K(DK)/5.4K(FD)

His price has bumped up a bit but they still haven’t adjusted fully to the role Ish plays on the Wizards now. He’s seeing minutes in the high 20’s while being well over 20% usage when he’s on the floor since the NBA’s return. People may be shy about his one but it’s a 227 total and the Pacers are still without Domantas Sabonis, Victor Oladipo, and a limited Malcolm Brogdon.

Jordan Clarkson, Jazz, 4.9K(DK)/4.7K(FD):

I admittedly fell into the Clarkson trap the other night where his price wasn’t adjusted and he laid a dud. I should have known better as OKC plays tough defense against guards with a paced down tempo. Lakers are good defensively but that’s more tilted towards their interior defense and Clarkson takes around 40 percent of his shots from three-point range negating a lot of that. Plus I am a little bit of a sucker on this particular revenge narrative.

Dillon Brooks, Grizzlies, 5.1K(DK)/5.1K(FD)

Did I mention the Memphis/New Orleans game had a 237 total? Of course I did. Shooting guard is the thinnest of the positions today so Dillon falls right into my cash game radar. He was pouring in shot attempts (20) against the Spurs the other night, they just were not falling which spells disaster for a scoring dependent player like Brooks. He rarely goes “off” staying around 30 DK points but he’s largely been safe, avoiding the complete duds that kill your cash lineup.

Forwards:

T.J. Warren , Pacers, 7.4K(DK)/6.7K(FD)

Looking at his gawdy numbers he posted (67 on Fanduel) this can look like you’re chasing his last outing but at this point Warren is the primary offensive option for Indiana. As I said earlier we are without Sabonis and Brodgon is severly limited essentially forcing Warren into this role against a Wizards team who would have a hard time defending a 13 year old and under AAU summer league team. Do I think he will drop 53, no. Do I think he COULD post another big night, absolutely.

Jaren Jackson Jr, Grizzlies, 6.2K(DK)/6.4K(FD):

It looks like Memphis fianlly stopped screwing around with JJJ’s minutes since the return the NBA action playing 35 and 43 minutes respectivly where he was ping ponging between 15 and 30 minutes prior to the shutdown. Combine that with a 22 percent usage rate and a soft Pelicans defense and you have all the makings of a fantasic evening.

Kyle Kuzma, Lakers, 4.4K(DK)/4.5K(FD):

If you want to pay all the way up for guys like Ben Simmons, or Lebron James you will need to find some guys for salary relief and I like the way they appear to be getting Kuzma involved in for the playoff push. He has seen his minutes go from the low 20’s prior to the shutdown to 28 and 32 in his last two since returning while sitting around 20 percent on his usage rate with a mixture of scoring and ancillary stats. He is another guy like Brooks today that probably won’t win you your contest but he will give you a nice solid floor with a little upside for you cash games.

Brandon Ingram, Pelicans, 8.1K(DK)/7.4K(FD)

I’m not really on the Pelicans for cash today due to them having so many options who can take over a game any given night but of the group I like Ingram the most. Zion doesn’t look right yet, Jrue Holliday, and Lonzo Ball feel overpriced and J.J. Redick is too scoring dependant to recommend as more than a punt play for cash. Ingram is the only guy who looks appropriately priced and even a little low on Fanduel. I can not reasonbly recommend the Grizzlies to the extent that I am without running it back with at least one piece and Ingram is my guy for that.

Centers:

Joel Embiid, 76’ers, 10.3K(DK)/9.7K(FD)

He is so freaking expensive now, but when you think about it it makes sense. Who’s going to stop him under the glass tonight against the Spurs?Jakob Poeltl? Nope LaMarcus Aldridge? Out. Drew Eubanks? Ok, now you are just being silly. When Embiid is healthy he is the most dominant rim presence in the NBA and I have a strong feeling that this is going to be the Embiid experience yet again tonight. You could possibly go center/center on DK tonight and do well but I don’t know how you fade him and Fanduel tonight.

Steven Adams, Thunder, 5.4K(DK)/6.4(FD)

I am inclined to avoid putting another center in this article but if you must have a lower priced guy Adams is my choice, mainly as a second option on Draftkings for the Utility spot. He hangs around in the high 20’s/low 30’s in terms of minutes most night and he was sporting a healthy 24% usage rate in his only game since the return. He can get in foul trouble occasionally but Nikola Jokic also has a habit of getting really lazy under the rim due and hang out around the 3-point line and chunk shots.

My Fade of the Day:

Thomas Bryant, Wizards:

He’s looked good since the season reboot but be careul with Bryant tonight. prior to the reboot he wasonly seeing mid-teens minutes. In two games back he has seen 34 and then 37 minutes last night. I don’t trust him just yet to get heavy minutes on a second half of a back to back. He’s going to be popular but I recommend you stay away tonight and see how he is utilized.

Isaiah’s Protocol for the NBA DFS slate is researched using DraftKings (DK) pricing. The players are good across the industry with some slight adjustments to salaries on the various sites. I like to advise all my readers to join the staff at WinDaily, in our Discord chat rooms, as we discuss some of the important news of the day and break down some of these intriguing plays even further.

Mostof the players I recommend are best used together for cash gamepurposes. These players are also decent considerations for guaranteedprize pool (GPP) games when used individually with other contrariantype players.

TheStud

Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11000) When I first glanced at this NBA DFS slate, Giannis was the first player I immediately clicked on. While there is a chance the Bucks MVP may be limited today due to the fact that they basically have nothing to play for, I simply can’t ignore the upside. The Rockets basically have no defense nor do they roster any big men. This was evident in their first game when they let Kristaps Porzingas go off for 70 DraftKings fantasy points (DKFPTS). The “Greek Freak” dwarfs this Rocket team and posted a triple-double in the first meeting between these two teams. He scores nearly 2 DKFPTS per minute and has a usage at almost 40%. For me, this is a no brainer. Plug Giannis into the PF spot, and then start your roster builds. It’s that simple.

TheCore

I’m going to insert a disclaimer on this NBA DFS slate right off the bat. I absolutely LOVE the Memphis Grizzlies today. Favored by 4 ½ over a Spurs team that has limited players available and an inferior defense, Memphis has an implied team total (ITT) at 119.5 which is 6.6 points higher than their season average. Most of the Grizzlies are also under priced in my opinion, making them an absolute necessity in roster building today.

JaMorant ($7300) The Kings guards just went off on this Spur team and Iexpect the favored rookie of the year to make a statement here. Jalooks like he’s been keeping busy during the break building muscleand cardio. He has a 28% usage rate against a Spur team that ranks28th in (DVA) which is a rank given to the opponent whenfacing this player’s archetype.

Jaren Jackson Jr. ($5200) I can’t for the life of me figure out why DraftKings hasn’t fixed his pricing. Oh well. Jackson just went off on Portland to the tune of 45 DKFPTS in 45 minutes. Lonnie Walker will have no answer for this power forward and I expect Jaren to crush value again. Jackson does have a tendency to commit fouls, but with Memphis all in on grabbing a playoff spot they will need him to watch his step.

Caris LeVert ($7800) Grabbing some Nets vs. this porous Wizard team is a great idea on this NBA DFS slate, and Caris is now the go to guy in Brooklyn. He just put 30 DKFPTS on Orlando is what I considered to be a poor performance against a slow paced solid defense. Washington is the virtual opposite. I expect LeVert to go north of his average 37 DKFPTS in this game.

TheValue

WhileI expect the masses to flock to Lonnie Walker, Daniel House, and ZachCollins, Let me point out some others I’m considering.

ThomasBryant ($4800) It’s been a long standing DFS opportunity to targetCenters against Brooklyn. I believe Bryant is the guy in Washingtonand flying under the radar in this one.

JarrettAllen ($5600) Someone not named LaVert is going to have to step upfor Brooklyn and I can see Allen being the guy now that DeAndreJordan is not in his way to maximizing his minutes.

Ish Smith ($3800) Look I get there’s a bit of a struggle in the Washington backcourt between him and Napier, but Ish played 27 minutes against Phoenix and dropped almost 32 DKFPTS. At $3800 you can’t really ask for anything better than that on this NBA DFS slate.

BrandonClarke ($4200) More of a fade for me, but I’m penciling him in hereanyway. Clarke will look to be extremely chalky after dropping almost40 DKFPTS on Portland. Big man Valanciunas and the above namedJackson were both in foul trouble in that one. While I see the youngtalented Clarke playing multiple positions off the bench and gettingmore minutes than he did pre-break, I’m tempering my expectationstoday on the chalk play.

There are a ton of players to like on this NBA DFS slate today. I simply don’t have the time to write all of them up. I highly encourage all readers to join myself, and the rest of the WinDaily team in the Discord chat rooms as we break down and discuss our favorite plays. Thank you for reading my content and feel free to leave a comment, or leave me a message on Twitter @IsaiahsProtocol.

GOODLUCK AND HAVE FUN

NBA GPP Picks 8/2

In this article I will be breaking down NBA GPP Picks 8/2. I will inform you with at least one player per position that strikes my interest and If I am interested in a player on only one site, I will be site specific. I will be using DraftKings pricing for this article.

We have a six game NBA slate to dissect today with two of the fastest paced teams squaring off Milwuakee (1) vs. Houston (3), not to mention six of the league’s top ten fastest paced teams on the slate. No lack of high-priced studs on this slate, we also have several salary relief options to help you reach the studs on this slate. Be sure to join myself and the rest of the WinDaily staff in the Discord chat rooms as we further evaluate this slate and keep you up to date on any news that may come in before lock.

NBA GPPPicks 8/1

PG

Ish Smith– ($3,800)

Washingtonis short handed and without their best player Bradley Beal, so this team has aton of usage that must be absorbed. Smith takes up a good chunk of that as he see’sa 27.5% usage rate, that’s a 7.5% bump from when Beal is on the floor. Brooklynhas allowed the sixth most fantasy points to point guards this season andranking as the tenth fastest team. The usage and this matchup should provide Smithwith same high upside at his current price tag.

SG

Caris LeVert– ($7,800)

With Primaryball handlers Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie ruled out, LeVert has massiveusage numbers at 33.5%. Holding that kind of usage, it is clear that LeVert isgoing to dominate this teams ball handling duties. He also is in a favorablematchup against Washington who has given up the seventh most fantasy points toshooting guards and ranks the sixth fastest paced team in the NBA this season.

SF

KhrisMiddleton – ($7,800)

Eric Bledsoewill be absent from this game and Middleton is the biggest beneficiary when Bledsoeis inactive. Middleton has the largest usage increase on the team at 4.5%,putting his total usage at 31% without Bledsoe. This is an amazing matchup aswell as Houston has given up the eight most fantasy points to small forwardsthis season and rank as the third fastest team in the league. With Bledsoe outof the picture and given the matchup Middleton could have a fantasticperformance.

PF

Jaren JacksonJr. – ($5,200)

Jackson willbe facing a Spurs team with a depleted front court and will likely matchup withRudy Gay or Rookie Keldon Johnson. Those two are not outstanding defenders andJackson would have the size advantage regardless of which player defends him.Memphis players are also receiving extended minutes as they are trying to makea playoff push which led to Jackson seeing 43 minutes last game although it didgo to overtime. The Spurs had given up the 11th most fantasy pointsto power forwards this season and that’s with Aldridge and Lyles playing, thisshould be a matchup for Jaren Jackson to feast in.

C

Jakob Poeltl– ($4,000)

Without TreyLyles and Lamarcus Aldridge the Spurs are short handed in the front court. Thisleaves Poeltl to handle a majority of these minutes as he saw 32 minutes in thegame against Sacramento. Seeing 30 minutes in just 3 games this season, lastgame was his lowest fantasy point total of those games and he still scored 27fantasy points at just $4,000. He should be able to hit value here without onissue as the Grizzlies are also the seventh fastest team in the NBA.

That will concludeNBA GPP Picks 8/1 six game slate. Again, we have a ton of players that are notwith their respective teams for injury purposes or covid concerns. DraftKingshasn’t adjusted the prices yet for these teams such as Washington and SanAntonio, this will allow you to pay for two studs again if you choose to gothat route. You will want to make sure you get exposure to Milwuakee vs. Houstoneven though a lot of these players are high priced the total is currently at243. Thank you for reading my content and hopefully you make this Sunday aprofitable one.

NBA GPP Picks 8/1

In this article I will be breaking down NBA GPP Picks 8/1. I will inform you with at least one player per position that strikes my interest and If I am interested in a player on only one site, I will be site specific. I will be using DraftKings pricing for this article.

Basketball is finally back, and we get to finish the season in Florida! We’ve got a five-game slate on our hands, that has some injury news we’re going to want to follow. Jamal Murray, Victor Oladipo, and Malcolm Brogdon are all questionable, these are high usage players so you’re going to want to pay attention to this news. Make sure you don’t forget to join myself and the rest of the WinDaily staff in the discord chat rooms, we will process this news as we receive it and breakdown the slate even further.

NBA GPPPicks 8/1

PG

JrueHoliday – ($8,200)

The Pelicansvs. Clippers game is the highest total of the day at 227. Holiday has seen atleast 36 minutes in eight of the last nine games the Pelicans have played. PaulGeorge and Kawhi just held Lebron to only 16 points and just 6-19 from thefield. The Clipper forward duo will likely slow Brandon Ingram and Zion to somedegree, leaving Holiday to carry the offense.

SG

JordanClarkson – ($3,900)

This wont bea flashy matchup here, but this price and Bojan Bogdanovic out its difficult tofind a scenario where Clarkson busts. We’re talking about a player at $3,900that has a 27% usage rate without Bogdanovic on the floor, and that’s second onthe team behind only Donovan Mitchell. If he is going to exceed 30 minutes ofplaying time without Bogdanovic you should strongly consider selecting Clarksonas his price wont stay here for long.

SF

PaulGeorge – ($7,900)

Odds arethat George is going to be heavily owned, but for good reason as he is facingthe second fastest paced team in the NBA. With Lou Williams and MontrezlHarrell out Paul George see’s a massive usage rate of 33%, add that to the paceof this game and the Pelicans have allowed the fourth most raw points as a teamthis season. Paul George and Kawhi are both excellent plays from this game asKawhi also has a usage rate above 33% with Williams and Harrell absent.

PF

MichaelPorter Jr – ($3,000)

Gary Harrisand Will Barton have already been ruled out for this game, and Jamal Murray isquestionable. The only other player for Denver to take minutes from Porter atsmall forward is Torey Craig, but regardless Porter should see at the minimum20 minutes in this matchup with the Heat as received 20 minutes in the Nuggetsfinal scrimmage. Porter has a 21% usage rate with those two players off thefloor that should allow him to easily pay off his stone minimum price onDraftKings.

C

Myles Turner– ($6,200)

Turner willbe squaring off against Joel Embiid, which is typically a matchup that I avoid.Embiid has only played in one scrimmage to this point due to a calf injury andhe only saw 12 minutes in that scrimmage, so it’s very possible Embiid won’t receivehis usual minutes. More good news for Turner is that Domantas Sabonis hasalready been ruled out. Turner gains 7.8% in the usage department without Sabonisand accrues 12.55 more fantasy points per 36 minutes.

That will wrap it up for NBA GPP Picks 8/1 five game slate. I always appreciate you taking the time to read my content. Remember we have injury news to watch if either Malcolm Brogdon or Victor Oladipo sit out that allows TJ Warren to be in play along with other value plays from the Pacers. If Jamal Murray is out you will want to consider Monte Morris, Paul Millsap, and Nikola Jokic. Stay up to date with all the news by heading on over to the Discord chat rooms as myself and other WinDaily staff members will be breaking down the slate even further as we wait for injury announcements to trickle in. Best of luck!

NBA DFS is all about finding the best opportunities for guaranteed production with a high upside. Follow my stud and value plays and lock in the NBA DFS Picks of Destiny.

David Jones won 100K on FanDuel! Read about it here

IMPORTANT: NBA DFS is completely different than any other sport. Players get ruled out five minutes before games and you HAVE TO BE READY to pivot. I will update this article as close to lineup lock as possible with any big news, but play it safe and stay on top of the news yourself.

I refer to FanDuel pricing today.

3/7 NBA DFS Point Guard

  1. Trae Young ($9,800 FD) He sat out last night with flu like symptoms, but I think he gives it a go tonight. Aside from Lillard and Jokic, he has the highest upside on the slate and a superior matchup against the Grizzlies.
  2. Ja Morant ($6,900 FD) You play guards agains the Hawks no matter who it is. Don’t over think it. If you play him it’s not a bad idea to stack him with Trae (or Huerter if Trae is out).
  3. Jamal Murray ($6,500 FD) Play guards against the Cavs. He is too cheap. If you play Murray it’s not a bad idea to stack him with the other guard listed below hoping the game stays close.
  4. Colin Sexton ($6,700 FD) Sexton is getting a boat load of minutes with Garland on the sideline. His past four games he is averaging just under 40 minutes per match and he has scored over 40 FD points in three of the last five. The matchup against the Nuggest is not a positive one, but I if Drummond plays he should help neutralize the massive advantage the Nuggets would have in the paint and help keep this one respectable at home in Cleveland. I play guys who gets minutes, and Sexton certainly has that going for him again tonight.

Stephen Curry ($8,200 FD) He came in looking phenomenal on a minutes limit in his first game back against the Raptors. If his minutes limit is lifted to anywhere around 30 minutes (very possible) he jumps to the top of my point guard list. As I am writing this, we do not have that information yet. Keep an eye on the news.

Curry out: Add Jordan Poole

3/7 NBA DFS Shooting Guard

  1. Donovan Mitchell ($7,400 FD) He was off last night but should bounce back tonight against the Pistons. He has a solid floor with upside which is what you look for in NBA DFS.
  2. CJ McCollum ($7,700 FD) Still producing with Dame back and gets solid match against the Kings. It is a back to back but that doesn’t necessarily limit CJ;s minutes (might limit Dame a little more though).
  3. Kevin Huerter ($5,300 FD) Only want him if Trae is out.

Curry Out: Added Damion Lee

Punt: Dillion Brooks ($4,800 FD) Only because he is going against the Hawks

3/7 Small Forward

  1. Tobias Harris ($7,300 FD) I guess he will just never be priced appropriately. He is the focal point of this offense with Embiid and Simmons out. Easiest play on the board against Golden State.
  2. Andrew Wiggins ($7,800 FD) He is on a productive run lately scoring 40 FD points in the past four games. He goes against the depleted 76ers squad with their two best defensive precences on the sidelines. Pay up for the top two Small Forwards on the slate, going against each other and I doubt you regret it.
  3. Glenn Robinson ($3,700 FD) If starting, against his old team..

Punt: Cedi Osman ($4,000 FD) Only if Porter out, also like him less if Drummond plays.

3/7 NBA DFS Power Forward

  1. Al Horford ($6,500 FD) Way too cheap, even if Green is back, and on him most of the game. The Sixers are still without Embiid which gives him a huge boost. Lock him in.
  2. John Collins ($8,400 FD) Back to back games don’t affect him. If Trae is out he is a lock, if Trae is in I still want him against Memphis.
  3. Christian Wood ($7,900 FD)
  4. Larry Nance ($6,100 FD) ONLY if Drummond is out OR if listed as Starter.

Green OUT: Adding Eric Pascall

Note: I want a big man against the Blazers. They always hit (See Baynes last night) however Holmes may be back for the Kings which throws the minutes off for everyone. If Holmes sits this one out I will look to Nemanja Bjelica ($4,800 FD) heavily.

3/7 DFS Center

Top Two

  1. Jonas Valanciunas ($7,100 FD) Going against the Hawks, easy play.
  2. Green Out adding Marquis Chris ($6,200 FD) I will have 50% Chris and 50% Val

Other

  1. Nikola Jokic ($9,700 FD) I have a feeling he gets full run in this one which would give him the highest upside at the position.
  2. High Risk: Andre Drummond ($8,000 FD) He is a game time decision now.

David Jones won 100K on FanDuel! Read about it here

IMPORTANT: NBA DFS is completely different than any other sport. Players get ruled out five minutes before games and you HAVE TO BE READY to pivot. I will update this article as close to lineup lock as possible with any big news, but play it safe and stay on top of the news yourself.

I refer to FanDuel pricing today.

2/29 NBA DFS Point Guard

  1. Trae Young ($10,000 FD) At 10K, FanDuel is finally putting some respect on my favorite point guard in the leagues name. He has one of the highest ceilings at the position today (with Russel Westbrook) going against the Portland Trailblazers. Trae shoots better at home this season and routinely puts up 60 FD points. There is no reason he can not get close to that today. Him and Collins are going to run the show for the Hawks and it is wise to at least have one of them, if not both.
  2. Russel Westbrook ($10,300 FD) He is a touch below Trae today just because I trust the Celtics defense more than the Blazers. He is a triple double threat every time he gets on the floor and tonight is no different. I can see this one staying close and Westy getting his usual mid thirties minutes which can mean a lot of fantasy production. Note: This is a nationally televised game on ABC
  3. Ricky Rubio ($6,800 FD) We talk about it on the WinDaily discord channel. Rubio is a guy you keep playing when he is hot. He has always been one of the few “streaks” guys you can count on in the NBA. He is on a back to back, which gives me a little pause, but not enough to keep him off my teams at his price.
  4. Malcolm Brodgon ($5,900 FD) Too cheap for starting PG against the Cavs.

Note: If Lebron or Davis sits tonight people will gravitate to Rajon Rondo ($4,200 FD). He is cheap so it is a decent play I guess, but he is by no means a smash play. He is inconstant in both production and minutes. If you HAVE to punt a PG, it makes some sense, but smells like risky chalk to me. Alex Caruso ($3,700 FD) is cheaper and I have just as much faith in him. Note: Danny Green is doubtful tonight

High Risk Punt: Austin Rivers ($4,200 FD)

2/29 NBA DFS Shooting Guard

  1. CJ McCollum ($8,800 FD) If you do not have a Blazers guard on your team you are making a bad play. Lillard is still out and CJ has been feasting lately. The Atlanta Hawks are my favorite team to target and if CJ was priced at 10K I would still play him. The ONLY way you don’t have him on your team is if you take Gary Trent ($4,400 FD) instead and hope he gets hot. If I make 100 teams I would have CJ in 90 of them.
  2. James Harden ($11,200 FD) I only want him or Westy on my team. He should score the most points, but we have plenty of options at shooting guard today.
  3. DeMar DeRozan ($7,500 FD) LAM is out and DeRozan gets a significant usage bump when he isn’t on the floor.
  4. Marcus Smart ($6,200 FD) Underpriced. The Celtics are without Kemba Walker still and Smart gets James Harden defense, or lack thereof.
  5. Gary Trent ($4,400 FD) See CJ McCollum
  6. Damion Lee ($5,800 FD) Gets Devin Booker defense (it’s bad).
  7. Garrett Temple ($4,400 FD) ONLY if Levert is out. He has a bad matchup on the second night of a back to back, but will see a usage bump.

Punt: Avery Bradley ($3,600 FD) Danny Green is doubtful

2/29 Small Forward

  1. Jaylen Brown ($6,400 FD) Every one of my teams will have either Brown or Hayward. I think it is fine to have both against Houston with no Kemba Walker.
  2. Gordon Hayward ($6,100 FD)
  3. Andrew Wiggins ($7,300 FD) He is probable tonight
  4. Cam Reddish ($4,700 FD) I only want either Reddish or Hunter on my team, I do not want them together. Prefer Reddish against the Blazers, but he is $400 more than Hunter (listed below). If you need the salary, Hunter works too. Neither player is consistent and both have the same upside.
  5. De’Andre Hunter ($4,300 FD)
  6. Carmelo Anthony ($5,700 FD) Great matchup against the Hawks. People forget he was actually a Hawk for minute, but refused to put on the jersey. The narrative doesn’t matter to me, what matters is everyone take advantage of Atlanta and Melo’s production goes up with Lillard still sitting this one out.
  7. TJ Warren ($5,400 FD) There is a lot of value at SF. All these guys are virtually underpriced. If (big IF) somehow the Cavs can stay close Warren would get mid thirties minutes which would be terrific at the price. He has a floor of 25 and ceiling of 45. He is a classic GPP candidate.

Update: Gordon probable Sleeper: Danuel House ($3,900 FD) He played 39 minutes against the Celtics last time and put up 28.3 FD points. If Gordon is out for this one, AND House gets the start, he may be the best value on the board at SF.

Fade: Lebron James ($10,400 FD) He is GTD decision right now and on the front end of a B2B. The Lakers should destroy Memphis and not need their starts to get anywhere near to a full run here. If Davis were to sit, my opinion would change.

2/29 NBA DFS Power Forward

  1. Aaron Gordon ($8,000 FD) If it ain’t broke…He is also the cheapest of all PF’s I am highly considering and get to play against the Spurs who are without LAM.
  2. Jason Tatum ($9,200 FD) On a hot steak, going against the Houston Rockets depleted (though not dealing with injury) front court. He has taken over as the Celtics most reliable playmaker and is getting a usage bump with no Kemba. This is also a nationally televised game on ABC where he can try and bump his name up a little bit more in the MVP race.
  3. John Collins ($8,400 FD) You target the Portland Trailblazers with big men, especially if you have just ONE big man. I have been watching a lot of John Collins basketball and he is on fire right now.
  4. Bam Adebayo ($9,100 FD) Do you want a low owned Allstar with 50+ point potential in a great matchup against the Nets at low ownership? That all sounds pretty good right? Tonight’s your night with Bam.
  5. Domantas Sabonis ($8,500 FD) Another guy that will be lower owned than he should be. It looks like he had a dud (with 40 FD points btw) last game but he was in foul trouble. I would not be surprised at all to see him get mid 40s FD points today.

Punt: Draymond Green ($5,600 FD) Draymond after an ejection is something I wait for, the problem is the other power forwards to pay up for today are too elite. I would consider Green more on DraftKings.

Fade: Anthony Davis: See Lebron

2/29 DFS Center

  1. Hasaan Whiteside ($9,600 FD) Bigs against the Hawks works every night. The Blazers are relying on him more with Lillard out. He is in store for a big game.
  2. Marquese Chris ($6,000 FD) Will he bet the top scoring Center? Probably not. Is he the best value on a night where we need it? Yes. The former Sun is returning to Phoenix and should get around 30 minutes here. You want to target the Suns with big men. 40+FD points is not out of the question for him in this spot.
  3. Nikola Vucevic ($8,700 FD)
  4. Jakob Poeltl ($4,300 FD) You can play him ONLY if he starts, which is not a guarantee. You will have to watch the news on this one.
  5. Deandre Ayton ($9,000 FD) He is questionable to play right now, which will lower his ownership. If he play, he has just as much upside as Vuc.

NBA DFS 2/23 — PG

Lonzo Ball, NO (@ GSW) – DK $7,300

Ball is a consistent fantasy producer (talented distributor, improving scorer) with enormous upside in this matchup against the woeful Warriors. We don’t need to be quite as fearless with his solid floor, and the 7x upside is something I’ll take on a day where many of the spend-ups at PG are unavailable. Chris Paul is the obvious pivot in another smash matchup (the Spurs are 29th in the league defending distributor guards like Paul), and the veteran has been a late-game hammer with his insane fourth-quarter production this season. He’s stackable with Spurs PG Dejounte Murray, too. For NO-GSW stacks, Jordan Poole is an option minus DeAngelo Russell and Draymond Green – who are both out for Golden State.

Pivot/Stack: Chris Paul/Jordan Poole

NBA DFS 2/23 — SG

Zach Lavine, CHI (vs. WAS) – DK $9,100

Lavine was an unmitigated bust last night in a game against the Hornets where he should have smashed, so we’re making our fearless foray into the darkness of GPP-friendly recency bias and taking a stand on the high-flying scoring guard. The Wizards’ poor defense should allow Lavine an easy path to 50 DK points and 60-point upside. We can find a spot at G or UTIL for Bradley Beal in-game stacks and pivot to Andrew Wiggins – who’ll be saddled with more of a scoring role (along with value option Damion Lee) in the NO-GSW game. If you’re hell-bent on playing the chalky C.J. McCollum (he’s good chalk, but chalky nonetheless), that’s fine on DK, where Wiggins is SF-eligible.

Pivot/Value/Stack: Andrew Wiggins/Damion Lee/BradleyBeal

NBA DFS 2/23 — SF

Brandon Ingram, NO (@ GSW) – DK $6,900

Ingram still has enormous upside in this potent Pelicans offense and tonight’s matchup is a favorable one. Make sure you stay tuned for Sunday’s starters, as there may be some New Orleans players getting a rest (it’s a stacked team that probably doesn’t need its full complement of stars active to notch a win vs. the Warriors). I like Carmelo Anthony as an inexpensive pivot, as well as Josh Hart – a rebounding swingman with a motor who always seems to play big minutes for the Pels.

Pivot/Value:Carmelo Anthony/Josh Hart

NBA DFS 2/23 — PF

Eric Paschall, GSW (vs. NO) – DK $4,400

This is one of the WarriorsI want exposure to in GPPs. He’s got legitimate 10x upside when he assumes alead scoring role, something he’s always been comfortable with since his daysat Fordham – where he won A10 Rookie of the Year before his transfer to BigEast powerhouse Villanova. I might not play him alongside Andrew Wiggins, becauseI feel like one or the other will go off, but you might be able to go there inheavy stacks of that game. I’ll definitely have shares of Rui Hachimura, who’sbeen cleaning up for the Wizards and could do very well against a depleted Chicagofrontcourt, and the obvious PF stacking option for NO is Zion Williamson – butthat price is up to $8,500 and I prefer the discount and upside of Ingram (aslong as he’s not rested).

Pivots: Rui Hachimura/Zion Williamson

NBA DFS 2/23 — C

Hassan Whiteside, POR (vs. DET) – DK $9,700

Whiteside has played some impressive basketball on both ends of the floor lately, but the Blazers are lost without Damian Lillard, and it just hasn’t been enough. The Pistons could employ a rotation of defenders against him and this spot isn’t perfect – but he’s strictly a GPP play where his ownership shouldn’t be out of control. I think Steven Adams could get chalky because of the solid matchup and his latest DK explosion (56.75 points on 2/21 vs. DEN), but he’s the obvious safer pivot. Serge Ibaka should bounce back in a sneaky good matchup following a foul trouble game, so he’s another value play.

Pivot/Value: Steven Adams/Serge Ibaka

NBA DFS is all about finding the best opportunities for guaranteed production with a high upside. Follow my stud and value plays and lock in the NBA DFS Picks of Destiny.

David Jones won 100K on FanDuel! Read about it here

IMPORTANT: NBA DFS is completely different than any other sport. Players get ruled out five minutes before games and you HAVE TO BE READY to pivot. I will update this article as close to lineup lock as possible with any big news, but play it safe and stay on top of the news yourself.

I refer to FanDuel pricing today.

2/22 NBA DFS Point Guard

  1. OUT Luka Doncic ($10,000 FD) I will have a ton of this game. Career rivals Luka and Trae will be going back and forth all night at State Farm Arena and both have a high floor and very high ceiling. I think we see a classic shoot out in Atlanta and the two starting point guards are my favorite plays on the slate. The Vegas projected total is 240.5 and it is only a six point spread. When is the last time a point guard against the Hawks has not hit? I can’t remember one..
  2. Trae Young ($10,200 FD) If you put Luka and Trae in your lineup you are pretty much locking down 110+ on Fanduel. That is something I am very interested in. Even if the Hawks are down 20 points in the 4th qtr (which I don’t expect) Trae will get full run. Update: Luka out, still love Trae.
  3. Russel Westbrook ($10,300 FD)
  4. Added: Ben Simmons ($8,900 FD)
  5. Added: Goran Dragic ($4,900 FD) Pivot to Kendrick Nunn if you need salary
  6. Jalen Brunson or JJ Barea ($3,600 FD) Luka out and Curry doubtful. Love whoever starts
  7. Coby White ($4,500 FD) He gets 30 minutes a game now that Dunn is done for the season. He is way too cheap against the Suns.

Punt: Ryan Arcidiacono ($3,500 FD) Starting for Bulls with Hutchinson sitting out with injury.

Shaquille Harrison ($3,800 FD) If I have 100 teams, I might put him in five. He isn’t starting but is getting increased usage when on the court. He got 18 FD points in 18 minutes last game.

2/22 NBA DFS Shooting Guard

  1. Zach LaVine ($9,400 FD) He is expensive but has a terrific matchup against Devin Booker defense in what should be an high scoring affair. If the Bulls are hanging in this one it is because LaVine is putting on a show. It may be hard to fit him if you are paying up at PG, but if you spend down you can easily get Zach and his upside.
  2. OUT Jimmy Butler ($8,100 FD) Elite matchup in Miami for Butler, the only concern is a blowout against the Cavs. Narrative Bonus: They are retiring D Wade’s jersey tonight. IF you think this game gets away from the Cavs quick, you can pivot to
  3. Duncan Robinson big bump with no Butler
  4. Kevin Huerter ($4,500 FD) Too cheap in the highest scoring game of the night. He should see close to 40 minutes here.
  5. Delon Wright ($3,800 FD) Luka, Kristaps are out. Load up on cheap Mavs

Added: Donovan Mitchel ($6,900 FD) Get’s to go against James Harden D. I have him under Jimmy Butler.

2/22 Small Forward

  1. Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11,300 FD)
  2. Kelly Oubre ($6,000 FD) FanDuel seems to keep underpricing small forwards. KO goes against the 27th ranked Chicago defense against the position.
  3. Tobias Harris ($6,300 FD) FanDuel refuses to raise this guys price after he constantly crushes value. Keep riding it.
  4. Tim Hardaway ($5,600 FD) He is going to get 35 minutes against his former team, who happens to be the defenseless Atlanta Hawks. Sometimes he breaks our heart, but the upside is there tonight. UPDATE: Kristaps is out. Hardaway just shot up the board.
  5. Dorian Finney-Smith ($4,000 FD) No Kristaps. He is going to get 35 minutes here. No issue playing both Mavs SF’s
  6. Cam Reddish ($4,400 FD) He gets a minutes bump with Hunter and Bembry out this game. He is hit or miss usually, and will be getting a decent amount of Tim Hardaway defense (that’s a negative), but in a high scoring game he should be able to hold his own and get you 25+.
  7. Kevin Porter ($4,600 FD) Love is out tonight and Porter is coming off an ejection game (narrative). He is in a good spot.

Punt: Cedi Osman ($3,700 FD) No Kevin Love

Punt 2: Justin Jackson ($3,500 FD) He is going to be forced to play with so many Mavs sitting out.

2/22 NBA DFS Power Forward

  1. OUT Kristaps Porzingis ($9,000 FD) You play Power Forwards against the Hawks. I don’t care that he is coming off a B2B, not in this matchup. If he doesn’t get 45+ FD points here I would be surprised.
  2. Maxi Kleber ($3,500 FD) LOCK OF THE SEASON
  3. John Collins ($7,600 FD) He has had a few “down” games (if 35 FD points is considered “down”) but he is a key piece on this Hawks team. I do not care that Porzingis will be defending him half the time. Aaron Gordon and Vuc didn’t have any trouble with him last night. Again, this is going to be a high scoring game and I am heavily invested.
  4. Bam Adebayo ($9,100 FD) If somehow the Cavs are able to stay in this one Bam would likely be your highest scoring PF, however that is not what my game script is predicting. A blowout seems imminent here, BUT even if it is Bam will have already contributed mightily to that point total. The All-Star is good for an easy 40 tonight, duplicating what he did last game is a bit of a stretch though.
  5. Larry Nance ($5,900 FD) Kevin Love is sitting out, this is always a positive for Nance. I have some blowout concern.

Punts in order: Thad Young, PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford

2/22 DFS Center

  1. ADDED: Rudy Gobert ($8,200 FD) Going against PJ Tucker
  2. DeAndre Ayton ($9,000 FD) He is a gamete decision. Keep an eye on the news.
  3. Tristan Thompson ($5,000 FD)
  4. Dewayne Dedmon ($4,500 FD)
  5. Boban Marjanovic ($3,500 FD) I think they free Boban tonight.. There is no Kristaps, Powell or WCS. I don’t see how he wouldn’t get on the court. High risk, high reward.

OUT Note: Willie Cauley-Stein ($3,600 FD) ONLY IF Kristaps were to sit which is not expected.

Punt: Cristiano Da Silva Felicio
