Point Guards

NAMETeam# GamesAnalysis
Russell WestbrookOKC4Westbrook keeps the top spot with the full slate of games and as always expect top rebounding and assist dishing along with scoring in the 20's (at least) each game. 
Damian LillardPOR4Lillard is the priority in the Blazers offense and because they get inconsistent offense from their frontcourt, Lillard gets by far the most shots, time with the ball and he'll help with assists. 
Kyrie IrvingBOS4Expect balanced scoring assists and steals. Irving's shot selection has matured over the years and he'll keep his shooting percentages consistent and continue being Boston's top shooting option. 
Kemba WalkerCHA4Walker will continue to be the top option for the Hornets and most of their offense will come from their backcourt and Nicolas Batum is not fully healthy. 
Lonzo BallLAL4Ball returns to the rankings with a full slate of games and I caution all of you not to get too fixated on his shooting percentage and focus more on the fact that he provides points, boards and assists.
Dennis SchroderATL4Schroder has some of his weapons back up front so we should see an increase in assists in the coming weeks and as always he's the Hawks top scoring weapon. 
Chris PaulHOU3Paul's usage will go up a bit because James Harden is playing in pain. Expect him to have more time with the ball this week and he should see more shot opportunities. 
Goran DragicMIA4Dragic will continue to force the ball in the lane with Hassan Whiteside still sidelined. He should be producing more scoring, but has been seeing the extra defender. Always expect assists and steals. 
Kris DunnCHI4Dunn improves each week and has had the ball in his hands more because Lauri Markkanen has been hurting and with Nikola Mirotic in the mix, his assists should increase and is always a steals threat.
Kyle LowryTOR3Lowry continues to be a priority scorer with the Raptors and they will need to continue to produce most of the offense out of the backcourt due to injuries up front. 
John WallWSH3Wall will continue building his speed back up and all of his numbers including playing time should improve this week. Expect scoring, boards, assists and steals. 
Ricky RubioUT4Rubio has been shooting poorly over the last few weeks and if he drives the lane more, he'll see more success. We can normally rely on him for dimes, but that has also been a struggle for him. 
Austin RiversLAC4Recovering from a Concussion but should be active for his entire slate this week. 
Dennis Smith Jr.DAL4Dealing with a Hip injury, but could play his entire slate of games this week. 
J.J. BareaDAL4Even if Smith Jr. plays, Barea has been one of the most effective weapons off the bench for the Mavs. He finds a way to get in the lane and score and helps with boards, assists and steals. 
Jeff TeagueMIN3Teague has been playing a lot more offense on the ball and we've seen him go into isolation mode to try to get to the basket and draw contact. He's always reliable for assists. 
Eric BledsoeMIL3Bledsoe continues making the case to be the Bucks second scoring weapon and we can expect consistency with assists and steals. 
Spencer DinwiddieBKN 3Dinwiddie continues benefitting from D'Angelo Russell being out and is logging a ton of minutes and slashes to the basket a ton and is able to create open shots and dish assists. 
Darren CollisonIND3Collison continues being a good scoring weapon especially from beyond the arc. He does a good job feeding the Pacers slashers inside.
Rajon RondoNO3

Rondo as always can be relied on for boards, assists and steals and we should view scoring as an added bonus. He has two of the best big-men in the World to feed inside. 

Shooting Guards

NAMETeam# GamesAnalysis
James HardenHOU3Risky keeping him at the top of the rankings without a full slate and is dealing with Knee soreness, but if the Rockets are knowingly letting him play through pain, we should expect full production.
Klay ThompsonGSW4Thompson will coninue being the Warriors second scoring weapon with Stephen Curry out and even with Draymond Green hurting, Thompson will pick up even more shots. 
CJ McCollumPOR4McCollum can always be relied on to score, but that seems to be all he brings to the table as we never know what we're going to get in terms of boards and dimes. 
Lou WilliamsLAC4With Danilo Gallinari hurting and Blake Griffin out, Williams has become the top shooting option for the Clippers and we can expect frequent 20-point games. 
Victor OladipoIND3Oladipo continues his amazing season and has been helpful with not only lethal shooting from the arc, but he'll get long rebounds as well.
Gary HarrisDEN4Harris continues to put his Shoulder injury behind him as he looks fully healthy and you see a lot more confidence when he shoots the ball. He'll continue being the second scoring option. 
Donovan MitchellUT4Mitchell continues to impress and his drive to the basket improves each game. Mitchell can shoot from mid and long-range, but clearly prefers attacking and drawing contact. 
Kentavious Caldwell-PopeLAL4KCP can be relied on for elbow shooting and long rebounding and Lonzo Ball's shooting issues put the ball in KCP's hands and he'll help with steals on the defensive end. 
JJ RedickPHI4Redick is normally just a scorer, but lately he's been grabbing more long rebounds and even feeding the cutter more rather than just looking to create a shot with the ball.
Kent BazemoreATL4Bazemore will continue being the Hawks second shooter and he'll score most of his points from right inside the arc, but has been attacking the rim a bit more and will help w/ second chance scoring. 
Jaylen BrownBOS4Brown has stuck more to his jumper this season, but has the ability to attack. He'll help with defensive stats and is good at reading screens and will make an impact with steals. 
Justin HolidayCHI4Holiday is doing just enough to be relevant and he'll need to be more motivated than ever because Zach LaVine is due back in a month and Holiday will lose shots once he returns. 
Jeremy LambCHA4Batum just doesn't look 100 percent and Lamb will continue to be utilized off the bench and not only can he score in volume, but he'll also help with assists and steals.
Nicolas BatumCHA4Batum is getting the job done on the glass and even hitting the cutter inside, but his shot looks off. His shooting motion isn't consistent thus consistent scoring will be hard to come by. 
DeMar DeRozanTOR3DeRozan has been playing more like the Raptors second scoring option than sharing the top responsibility with Kyle Lowry. We can always expect boards and steals. 
Khris MiddletonMIL3Middleton is in a battle to keep his shots consistent and is starting to move towards the basket inside the key to be more involved. If he stays at the arc, he'll lose more shots to Bledsoe. 
Bradley BealWSH3Beal's usage will go down just a little bit with Wall getting back into the swing of things, but as long as he continues cutting to the basket, he'll get fed on the run. 
Dion WaitersMIA4Waiters will provide mainly scoring, but he'll help a bit with long rebounding and steals and with Whiteside and James Johnson hurt, more offense will have to come from the backcourt. 
Jrue HolidayNO3Holiday's assists will take a hit while he's at the SG position, but he can focus his game more on being a top shooting weapon and he'll attack the lane down the middle with the ball. 
Tyreke EvansMEM3Evans has done an excellent job filling in for Mike Conley and while Conley is out, expect him to dish a good amout of assists and he'll also grab boards, steals and will score. 

Small Forwards

NAMETeam# GamesAnalysis
Kevin DurantGSW4Durant takes the top spot with the full slate and an injured Stephen Curry and Draymond Green. Expect usage to continue to be very high. 
Paul GeorgeOKC4George continues calling for the ball at the key and utilizing his own isolation. He does a great job following up his shots and we can always expect boards, steals and blocks. 
Robert CovingtonPHI4Covington continues helping consistently in just about every category including three-point shooting. He can create his own long-range shot and find openings. Always expect scoring and boards. 
Will BartonDEN4Barton continues to be an excellent spark off the bench and his mid-range game has improved. Barton will slash inside and draw contact and grab boards and steals. 
Harrison BarnesDAL4Barnes continues being a priority scorer for the Mavs and it's hard to stop him once he slashes inside and he draws a lot of contact. Expect consistency in scoring, boards and steals. 
Brandon IngramLAL4Ingram continues to play essentially "Point Forward" and he'll produce a bit of everything including assists. Ingram is good on the run and will get steals on the defensive end. 
TJ WarrenPHX4Warren continues being the Suns top scoring option until more trades are made and he's done a good job stepping inside the arc to grab boards. 
Joe InglesUT4Ingles continues to be a good bailout option for the Jazz for both Ricky Rubio and Donovan Mitchell. He's a lethal outside shooter and when defenses collapse inside, he's left open. 
Taurean PrinceATL4Prince's mid-range game has been on lately as he normally just slashes to draw contact. Defenders are leaving him open and he's been doing a better job on the glass. 
Rodney HoodUT4Hood mainly stays at the arc to wait for his shot, but shuffles around the arc to find openings and will continue to get fed outside and he'll help with steals on defense. 
Rudy GaySAS4Gay will continue to play a good amount of minutes while the Spurs bring Kawhi Leonard back slowly and we can expect scoring, rebounding and blocks in the post. 
Denzel ValentineCHI4Valentine is in a similar situation to Justin Holiday with LaVine on his way back, but Valentine has been findign openings at the arc and is used as the Bulls main bailout option. 
Wesley MatthewsDAL4Matthews will continue getting shot opportunities. He's been trying to create from the arc, but should use his size more in the high post to look to draw contact. He'll grab a few boards. 
LeBron JamesCLE2James would certainly be higher in these rankings because of how amazing of an all-around producer he is, but he unfortuantely has the short slate this week. 
Jimmy ButlerMIN3Dealing with Back spasms and may have to miss a game this week. 
Otto Porter Jr.WSH3Dealing with a hip issue and may need to miss a game this week.
Kawhi LeonardSAS4Will be on minutes restriction for a bit and will likely sit out in back to back situations.
DeMarre CarrollBKN3Carroll has been effective on both sides of the ball and his long-range game has kept him involved in the Nets offense, and he has good slashing and rebounding ability. 
Trevor ArizaHOU3Ariza will always have a secure amount of minutes because of his shutdown perimeter defense. He's used as the main bailout option and can be relied on mainly for scoring and steals. 
Courtney LeeNY3Lee will continue to get a ton of shots with Tim Hardaway Jr out, but now with Kristaps Porzingis in and out of the lineup, he's become the top shooting option for the Knicks. 

Power Forwards

NAMETeam# GamesAnalysis
Ben SimmonsPHI4Simmons is another player whose shot needs improvement, but he does everything else at an extremely high level and with the full slate, he gets the top spot this week. 
Giannis AntetokounmpoMIL3We all know how deadly The Greek Freak is and how helpful he is with every category and how hard it is even for the best defenses to stop him in the lane. 
LaMarcus AldridgeSAS4Aldridge will continue being the priority scoring weapon as Leonard continues to recover and he's done a good job scoring from the arc and creating in the lane. His rebounding has been excellent. 
Anthony DavisNO3Davis moves down with the lack of full slate, but the good news is that he looks recovered (for now) from his Groin injury. He's been moving better on the court.
Carmelo AnthonyOKC4Anthony will continue getting a good amount of time with the ball and we can almost always expect a good amount of points, but his rebounding is a bit more inconsistent. 
Lauri MarkkanenCHI4Dealing with a Back injury and we're unsure about his status for the week.
Nikola MiroticCHI4Mirotic has picked up the ball and has not only been productive with Markkanen banged up, but he's shown a lot of leadership on the court when it comes to spacing. He's helped with boards too. 
Kyle KuzmaLAL4Kuzma continues shooting well from the field as he's in a major timeshare with other Lakers players. He does a good job following up his shots for boards and shoots well from the outside. 
Jayson TatumBOS4Speaking of players who are deadly distance shooters, Tatum has been very impressive and he'll bang in the lane for boards to keep plays alive. 
Al-Farouq AminuPOR4Aminu will continue scoring most of his points off of slashing, but he positions himself well in the lane, and gives the Blazers second chance scoring opportunities. 
Dario SaricPHI4Saric can play multiple positions and can score from different spots on the court. He'll grab long rebounds from the top of the paint and will cause big men to step outside the lane to defend him. 
John CollinsATL4Collins is healthy again and will continue driving with the ball and creating from mid-range. We can expect consistency in points, boards and steals and will get a secure amount of minutes. 
Alex LenPHX4Whether it's been off the bench or starting, Len has done a good job in the middle keeping plays alive for the Suns. He mainly scores from inside and he'll always help grab boards.
Larry Nance Jr.LAL4Nance Jr. is a good slasher and he's improved in the post. We can expect scoring, rebounding and he'll provide help with blocks. As we know, he remains in a major timeshare at PF.
Julius RandleLAL4Randle has been successful in the post and we can rely on him for scoring right under the basket and he'll get boards in the paint and help with putbacks. 
Greg MonroePHX4Monroe will continue learning the system in Phoenix and he's seen more 20-minute games. As always, it's hard to determine what to expect from Monroe per game. He needs more minutes. 
Kelly OlynykMIA4Olynyk will get even more usage as James Johnson will join Hassan Whiteside on the shelf and he's not only been shooting well, but he's been a big help with boards for this injured frontcourt. 
Derrick FavorsUT4Dealing with an Eye injury and he may need to miss a game this week. 
Draymond GreenGSW4Dealing with a Shoulder injury and will have to miss at least one game this week.
Kristaps PorzingisNY3Dealing with a minor Knee injury and may have to miss a game this week.

Centers

NAMETeam# GamesAnalysis
DeMarcus CousinsNO3If Jokic wasn't JUST coming back from his Ankle injury, Cousins would be the two-seed, but as always and even without a full slate, Cousins will provide a ton of points, boards and bloacks. 
Nikola JokicDEN4Jokic is back and has one game under his belt and he could produce at a high level this week, but the one concern remains whether or not the Nuggets will restrict his minutes this week. 
DeAndre JordanLAC4Jordan can't create at all offensively, on the ball and in the paint, but the Clippers are running out of scoring options and they'll force the ball inside. Always great for boards and blocks. 
Al HorfordBOS4Horford will continue being the Celtics primary inside defender with Marcus Morris hurting and other than outside scoring, Horford will also provide tons of rebounding and blocks in the paint. 
Dwight HowardCHA4Howard will continue getting fed between the elbow and paint and he's gets enough room to create in the post and as always will draw a ton of contact and grab boards and blocks. 
Joel EmbiidPHI4Will Start the week resting Monday night and hopefully that'll be the only game he misses this week, but his Back is still not 100 percent.
Karl-Anthony TownsMIN3Even though there are a lot of scoring options surrounding Towns, he'll still get his time to create in the post and at the arc. Expect consistent rebounding and steals and blocks. 
Nikola VucevicORL3Vucevic has had to be the Magic's top scoring weapon with both Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier hurt. Expect his usage to be at an all-time high as the Magic can't shake injuries. 
Pau GasolSAS4Gasol will continue to get fed in the paint when he draws good match ups and he's been helpful on the glass. With Leonard recovering, the ball will be in his hands a bit more. 
Jusuf NurkicPOR4Nurkic does not look like he's 100 percent better from his Ankle injury, but he does have the best moves inside of any of the Blazers big men. He's a consistent help on the glass. 
Marc GasolMEM3Gasol will continue being the top scoring weapon as we have no clue when Conley is coming back. He'll also help with boards and blocks inside and can shoot from beyond the arc. 
Dirk NowitzkiDAL4Nowtizki still gets a good amount of shots and playing time. When he's fed in the post, he moves a lot slower and draws the double, but when set up outside, it forces defenders out of position. 
Brook Lopez LAL4It's still very frustrating that fantasy players can't rely on Lopez for consistent rebounding and that has cost him playing time over the last month. Expect scoring, blocks and steals. 
Myles TurnerIND3Despite how great of a season Victor Oladipo is having, Turner still gets fed a ton on offense and he can slash inside and shoot from long-range. He'll grab boards and blocks on defense. 
Enes KanterNY3Kanter will be getting more plays called for him inside if Porzingis has to miss another game. Kanter has seen a lot of success scoring in the post and grabbing boards. He doesn't set up at the arc. 
Andre DrummondDET2Drummond would be near the top of this list if he didn't have the short slate for the week, but as always we can expect a ton of boads and inside scoring. 
Steven AdamsOKC4He's in the leagues Concussion protocol and may have to miss a game or two this week. 
Clint CapelaHOU3Dealing with a Heel injury and hadn't missed time this season and may need to sit out a game this week.
Kevin LoveCLE2Love would also be higher on this list and even with Tristan Thompson back, Love will still get a ton of shots and he'll grab a lot of boards and blocks. He'll hit three-pointers and play deep into games.
Marcin GortatWSH3Gortat will need to be ready to run as Wall continues to gain speed and the Wizards offense is about to be running more. He's reliable in the post for one-handed post moves, scoring and boards.
