Key Injuries/Stats
D'Angelo Russell - O >> Anthony Edwards & Malik Beasley get usage bumps with Russell off the floor
OG Anunoby - O >> Norman Powell will continue to start and is a fantastic price point tonight against the Wizards
Kevin Durant - O >> Kyrie Irving and James Harden both have usage rates over 30% with KD off the floor. Bruce Brown and Jeff Green seem to benefit with KD out.
Paul George - O >> Kawhi Leonard in a great spot against Minnesota. Marcus Morris has been playing 25+ minutes of late and is cheap.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - O >> Thunder have 9 active players tonight. Hamidou Diallo gets the usage bump here.
Jrue Holiday - O >> Bryn Forbes started in his absence the other night. Both Giannis and Middleton average 1.6 FP/Min with Jrue off the floor. Donte DiVincenzo averages 1.0 FP/Min with him out.
Lauri Markkanen - O >> Thad Young continues to be productive and we see Patrick Williams along with Denzel Valentine be solid value options.
Devonte' Graham - O >> LaMelo Ball has 50+ FP in two of the last three games. Miles Bridges has double-doubles in two of the last three games as well.
De'Andre Hunter - O >> Danilo Gallinari saw 25 minutes the other night. Has 20+ FP in two of the last three games.
Brandon Clarke - O >> Got 30+ minutes out of Jonas Valanciunas the other night and should play 30+ minutes again in a great spot.
Theo Maledon - O >> Same as SGA above.
Gary Harris - O >> Will Barton playing 32-35 minutes a night right now. Michael Porter Jr is getting the minutes but production has not been there just yet.
De'Anthony Melton - O >> His absence creates more minutes for Ja Morant who we saw play 36 minutes the other night and has as great spot.
Chris Paul - Q >> IF he is ruled out, along with Jae Crowder who is also Q then Devin Booker is a must play and E'Twaun Moore is a great value option.
Anthony Davis - Q >> LBJ becomes one of the top plays of the slate if AD is out. Kyle Kuzma gets a bump even if he does not start. Dennis Schroder also an elite option.
Patrick Beverley - Q >> If OUT we give a nice bump to Reggie Jackson
Jae Crowder - Q >> Good for E'Twaun Moore if ruled out.
Alex Caruso - Q >> Better for Schroder if he is ruled out as it takes away a backup guard option.
