Sunday, December 17th

Hello Grinders. We have a four game slate this Sunday afternoon but FanDuel did something really silly and split it up into two two-game slates. Honestly, that’s taking things a little too far. I’m going to list two of my core plays for both the early and late slate. Let’s recap some of the news and notes:

Cleveland CavaliersTristan Thompson (Out – Rest); Dwyane Wade (Out – Rest)
Detroit PistonsAvery Bradley (Questionable)
Indiana PacersThaddeus Young (Questionable)
Orlando MagicArron Afflalo (Questionable); Evan Fournier (Out); Aaron Gordon (Out); Jonathan Isaac (Questionable)
Sacramento Kings – De’Aaron Fox (Doubtful); Malachi Richardson (Questionable)
Washington WizardsOtto Porter (Questionable)
