NBA DFS Core Plays: December 1

I think there are two super important situations we've already had clarity on that need further explaining.

Paul George has been ruled OUT for the Clippers.

• Reggie Jackson leads the team in usage rate w/o George this year.
• Serge Ibaka led last year w/o George & Kawhi Leonard.
• Luke Kennard has a 6.5% usage bump.
• Marcus Morris had a 25.6% usage rate last year w/o George and Leonard.

In play: Serge Ibaka, Marcus Morris, Reggie Jackson, Luke Kennard, Eric Bledsoe, Terance Mann

Bam Adebayo will miss the next 4-to-6 weeks for the Heat.

• Jimmy Butler leads the team in usage, usage bump & FP/min without Adebayo & Markieff Morris.
• Tyler Herro has a 29.8% usage rate w/o them.
• Dewayne Dedmon is questionable himself, but if he plays, he's in play as he averages .92 FP/min w/o them on the floor.

In play: Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, Dewayne Dedmon, Kyle Lowry

UPDATE: Jimmy Butler HAS BEEN RULED OUT.

Tyler Herro becomes a lock-and-load play for me. 

Dewayne Dedmon, Kyle Lowry & if Caleb Martin starts, are all super strong options.

News & notes;

Tre Mann is starting for OKC, coming off 31 minutes in his last game. Firmly in play as a value option.

Chris Duarte is starting for Indiana. I like him, but he could always lose time to McConnell as they elected to go small last game. 

There is a LOT of news to come and we have to stay hip to it & bob where we have to bob, weave where we have to weave. Just be ready for more shakeups to come.
