What is going on #FANation! We have a nice six game slate here today with plenty of injury news that has kind of helped clear the slate up a bit for some easy targets for today's NBA DFS Starting Five! Yes, this is a write-up today and not a video due to some lovely tech issues with Premier Pro but I assure you the video will return tomorrow!

Point Guard

Malachi Flynn, PG TOR

With Kyle Lowry once again out of the lineup we take a look at Flynn who should be in store for another 30+ minutes tonight at the position in an elite matchup here against the Atlanta Hawks. Over the last two weeks Flynn is averaging 1.01 FP/Min with a usage rate near 20% when on the floor. We love attacking Trae Young defense and the Hawks just in general are poor defensively when it comes to the guard position. He offers a nice mid-tier option for your lineups tonight with 6-7x upside.

Shooting Guard

Paul George , SG LAC 

Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out for tonight which means we get Paul George with a juicy revenge game narrative matchup against the Pacers. With Leonard off the floor this season George has a 37.8% usage rate while averaging 1.60 FP/Min. Over his last three games we have seen George give us 50 FanDuel points in each contest. Lock and load chalk play tonight and the reason he is well represented across the DFS content today.

Small Forward

Miles Bridges , SF CHA

Gordon Hayward is OUT, PJ Washington is OUT, Malik Monk is OUT and Terry Rozier is DOUBTFUL. We were already getting top end performances out of Bridges over the last two games but now he finds himself in a spot to be the featured scorer for the Hornets here against a Lakers team that has struggled defensively with all their injuries. Bridges has a 23% usage rate this season with everyone who is out, off the floor this season.

Power Forward

Marcus Morris , PF LAC

With Leonard off the floor this season Morris has a 27.1% usage rate while averaging 1.18 FP/Min. He is still criminally cheap across the board and in a great matchup tonight against the Pacers where he figures to be the second scoring option behind Paul George . It was just the other night when we saw Morris drop 30 actual points to prove he is still capable of having big nights when given the oppurtunity to produce.

Center

Clint Capela , C ATL

John Collins , Trae Young and Danilo Gallinari  are out of the lineup tonight. We have back-to-back double-doubles for Capela in a great matchup against the Raptors whom we have attacked at the center position all season long. With Young, Gallinari and Collins off the floor this season Capela has a 21.7% usage rate while averaging 1.29 FP/Min.
