TOP GUARDS


Scotty Pippen Jr (Vanderbilt) vs. UF ($9.4K DK/8.4K FD)

Pippen comes into the game averaging 20.2 points per contest. He’s on pace to finish with an average of 20 points or more for the second consecutive season and, barring a cold streak in the final week, would be the first SEC player to accomplish the feat since 1994-95 (LSU’s Ronnie Henderson). The Gators do not offer much resistance and with the way Pippen is playing (35% usage and 26.8 PPG last five), he is the top overall guard on the slate.

 

Kennedy Chandler (Tennessee) @UGA ($7.5K DK)

Due to Pippen’s high price tag, Chandler may end up the highest-owned pay-up at guard tonight. The freshman point guard was just named SEC Freshman of the Week for the second time this season after averaging 18 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists last week against Mizzou and Auburn. He has grown leaps and bounds over the season and had his best game as a Vol vs. Mizzou with 23 points on career-high's in shooting percentage (75%, 9-12) and rebounds (8).  It gets even better tonight against a Georgia defense that has all but given up on the season with one win in the last 18 games.

 

Tyree Appleby (Florida) @VAND ($6.0K DK/7.1K FD)

The Gators' tourney bubble isn’t burst yet. A win against Georgia on Saturday helped the cause and they need to win at least one of the next two games. Appleby, along with teammate Philandrous Fleming Jr, played a huge role in the Georgia game with 16 points and seven assists (35 DKFP) – and his price has pretty much remained the same all season. A repeat of his earlier game against Vandy where he had 30 DKFP isn’t out of the question tonight for the Gator guard with a 24% shot and 29.2% assist rate.

TOP GUARD VALUE

 

TyTy Washington (Kentucky) vs. MISS ($4.8K DK/5.7K FD)

DK misprice here. Washington was a surprise return from injury on Saturday and played 35 minutes (20.3 DKFP), and DK has failed to re-adjust his salary. His salary even dipped a few hundred dollars less than it was on Saturday and he gets a good matchup with Ole Miss. He will be a popular choice for cash games, but do not overthink this one and just play the heralded recruit.

 

Umoja Gibson (Oklahoma) vs. WVU ($5.0K DK/4.6K FD)

North Texas transfer Gibson has averaged 7.8 points in the last five games after producing a season-high 30 points in the Sooners' big upset win over Texas. He has been up and down but the key is his minutes – 43, 30, 34 ad 38 over his last four games. When you play 30+ minutes with a usage and shot rate over 20% and are priced at only $5K you are in play – especially at home.

TOP FORWARDS

 

Oscar Tshiebwe (Kentucky) vs. MISS ($10.5K DK/9.0K FD)

When does the price become too high on Oscar? We are getting near fade levels at $10.5K, but it’s still such a risk when the guy is having 65 DKFP days as he did on Saturday against Arkansas (30 points/18 rebounds). Big O hasn’t had under a dozen rebounds in a game since December. Plus, he's scoring points more than ever to go with the unbelievable 55.2% combined rebound rate – so this is still a “fade at your own risk” play. 

 

EJ Liddell (Ohio State) vs. NEB ($8.6K DK)

Liddell is coming off his second-worst scoring game of the season with just 11 points against Maryland on Sunday. Due to the poor showing, DK has kept his price under $9K which makes him the top point-per-dollar play of the slate. This is a national Player of the Year candidate who is facing a bad, but fast, Cornhusker squad ranked 343rd in offensive rebounding (21%), 292nd in defensive rebounding (31.0%), and 249th in 2-PT% allowed (51.4%). This all adds up to a smash spot for a player that is averaging 19 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 38 DKFP over his last 10 games.

 

John Hugley (Pittsburgh) vs. DUKE ($7K DK/7.1K FD)

Not many people nationally realize how good John Hugley has been for Pitt. The Panthers are +21.9 points per 100 possessions better with Hugley on the court. He has “elite” written all over him and has become much more of a safer play as the season winds down- averaging 32+ DKFP a game and 16 points/8 rebounds over his last five. With two 50 burgers on his resume and two games over 47 DKFP, this season Hugley has an enormous ceiling as the alpha of the Pitt offense.

TOP FORWARD VALUE

 

Jalen Hill (Oklahoma) vs. WVU ($5.7K DK/5.1K FD)

Oklahoma is coming off a huge Bedlam win, which stopped a four-game losing streak. One bright spot of this streak has been the play of Hill, who has been over 22 DKFP in four of his last five games with the one dud coming against an elite Texas Tech defense. He is now playing a West Virginia team that is 347th in defensive rebounding (43.0%), which means plenty of second shots for Sooner big men. Value is lacking at forward tonight, so taking a chance on Hill may not be a bad call.

 

Moussa Diabate (Michigan) vs. MSU ($5.0K DK/4.7K FD)

Diabate is Dickinson-lite and not a bad consolation as a pivot for the expensive center. He had one of his best games of the season in the previous matchup vs. Michigan State last month, scoring 11 points with nine rebounds (29 DKFP). He has some foul issues (4.6 FC/40), but that is baked into the cheap price. The 12.2% offensive rebound rate will allow for second shots and a solid chance to hit 4-5X.
