Uriah Wesson 
Ah, playoff basketball how I love you. The end of the season can be a nightmare so I am personally ecstatic to know who will be playing and having the tightened rotations so that we can better project the winning plays for you. We have everything you need to help you find success no matter the scenario including our NBA Projection Model, Cheat Sheet, Discord, Youtube, @WinDailySports on Twitter, and Reddit . Yes folks, we have a Reddit page. Let’s dig in, have some fun, and make some cash with Win Daily Sports NBA Playoff Breakdown 5.30.
Since we are looking at small slates from here on out we’ll be keeping the list smaller than usual. Be sure to fill in the gaps with our projection model and discord. I’ll have my core posted about an hour prior to lock. I am also going to go against our normal procedures and put some value guys in here to fill things out so you can play with builds early.
***this is by no means all encompassing, there are plenty of other strong plays but honestly what kind on analyst would I be if I just gave you all of the high priced guys. We all know who they are. These are just the guys that I happen to prefer. If you have a gut feeling and they are not on this list, please go for it. I want to see you win, I do not care if it is with a play I do not recommend so long as you win. I will celebrate you victory all the same.
Win Daily Sports NBA Playoff Breakdown 5.30
Point Guards:
Luka Doncic, Mavericks, $11,100
I should not need to explain this. We have been hammering this concept for the entire season. You play primary ball handlers against the Clippers. Period.
Derrick Rose, Knick, $6,000:
This man must have access to the fountain of youth. He’s bee playing 39 minutes a night and he has taken 21 shots in each of the last two. I was firmly under the impression that Julius Randle would be taking over these games but he has been more than happy to facilitate and play defense while letting Rose lead the teams offense and it has bore fruit. 32.75, 37.75, and 47.5 DK points in the last three games and his usage is sitting at around 26% in each of these last three. It is not just points either, he has also been giving us around 5 assists and five rebounds in each of these games as well. His knees are shot, I know. But I think this man just wants to win and he will deal with the physical toll in the offseason. I am very much pulling for this guy from a personal perspective. Just a few years ago he was written off completely and yet here is is dominating on a team that none of us thought would be here at the beginning of the season.
Reggie Jackson, Clippers, $4,400:
Reggie Jackson is shooting the ball? Welcome to playoff NBA. He’s played 30 and 34 minutes in the last two games and has taken 12 shots in each and giving you a few peripherals in the process. His ceiling is 28 DK in my opinion but we are not living in the world where you have to score 380 points just to win a contests. As of right now 302 point is winning the single entry I’m playing tonight. You have to think differently this time of year. If you tell me a guy will score 15-18 points, and get 3 or 4 rebounds and assists and maybe a steal or two for $4,400. Easy value play for me tonight.
Shooting Guards:
Paul George, Clippers, $8,600:
I can not believe I am doing this but the data says that I have to recommend “Playoff P”. He has been playing well and quite honestly there isn’t anyone out there on Dallas that can guard him. The Mavericks are tailor made for PG13 to dominate. Who’s gonna guard him? The answer is nobody and besides Kawhi they have no other shooters.

Small Forwards:
Kevin Durant, Nets, $9,900:
The conspiracy theorist in me felt like Durant’s injury during the season was never as bad as what we were made to believe and they were keeping him rested and ready to take over when the playoffs started and his game right now is making me feel more and more right about this. He is the clear #1 in this big three. In the three games against Boston he has led the team in usage, total points, rebounds and steals. Boston has no answer for him and he is $600 cheaper than Harden.
Romeo Langford, Celtics, $3,300:
When Williams went down you would have thought that Luke Kornet was going to get all of the minutes left behind. No, not even close. Romeo Langford played 27 minutes in game three. While he did not look great he gave you 16 points at a $3,000 price tag and I do not expect people to go in this direction. I think people will automatically lock in Kornet do to the position v position swap but Boston won game three and there is no way they are going to change away from something that works at this crucial stage. Right now this is a gut play but I have a really good feeling that Boston is going to choose to go a little smaller and opt for more shooting. Pure gut feel but I really think he’s gonna get another 30 minutes and near min price. You don’t get chances like this often in playoff NBA. Take advantage folks.
Power Forwards:
Jayson Tatum, Celtics, $9,800:
We already know the Celtics are without Jaelyn Brown and know Kemba is a true game time decision with a knee issue and Robert Williams is doubtful. I do not know how many of you play basketball or have played but you need that leg drive for your jump shot so even if Kemba plays I do not see him being effective so it’s all on Tatum’s shoulders. He had some duds this series but the situation dictates that you have to play him tonight and he seems to right the ship with a massive 50 real point performance. With no Brown, Williams, and Walker on the court Tatum has a massive 38% usage rate over the last four weeks and I am expecting 30 shots as his minimum tonight.
Kawhi Leonard, Clippers, $9,200:
He is Kawhi, it is the playoffs, and the Mavs can not play defense. I do not need to say anything else. Moving on
Centers:
Tristan Thompson, Celtics, $5,200:
Brooklyn still can’t guard the glass and Triston Thompson has already had two double double’s in this series and he sees a huge 4.9% usage bump and about 10 more DK points without Williams, Brown, and Walker on the court.
Deandre Ayton, Suns, $6,700:
Criminality undervalued still. He should be 7.2K. I have no good reason for this but Ayton is the only big I have seen that has been able to get around all of these giant men that the Lakers have. I have no good answer for it but I’m going to ride the hot hand. You give me a mid priced center that can drop 40+DK and the Lakers and I’m jumping all over this one. He looks like a lock for 20-10 with CP3’s elite ability as a floor general. The fact that he is injured actually increases the opportunities for Ayton as Paul has taken a step back from scoring and his using his elite level passing and intelligence
