Wednesday, November 26th

Welcome to the Thanksgiving Eve Grind down. It should be another good one this evening as we have an interesting situation on FanDuel and the most games in a slate that we have played with yet. There will not be any updates tomorrow due to the small slate and Thanksgiving, but I will be back Friday.

Wisconsin

Prime Plays

Frank Kaminsky – Frank is an absolute beast and one of the safest plays on the board. There is a reason his price is 9,100. With his extra block potential, his upside goes out the window and you really need to fit him in somehow. He is the top play of the day against an overmatched UAB frontcourt.

Nigel Hayes – Not only is Frank a solid play, but Hayes has been dominating lately and is only 7,400 today. I have no issue with squeezing them both into a roster today as they should both surpass 30 fantasy points, Nigel would be the less certain of the two.

Secondary Plays

None – I really like the two bigs from Wisconsin against the undersized UAB frontcourt. Mehinti and Washington have no shot at stopping Kaminsky and Hayes and I would go that way and not towards the Wisconsin guards.

UAB

Prime Plays

None – UAB may struggle to hit 50 in this game and I do not like anyone as they spread the offense out somewhat an are against a very tough defense inside. I do not believe Brown can hit the number of 3’s that Wisconsin will allow him to take to make value.

Secondary Plays

Hakeem Baxter – Baxter is 3,000 again and is still starting for UAB. His upside is limited to around 15-20 points in a dream scenario, but for 3,000 he is definite value and really only needs to hit 12 to make up for it.
