GENERAL SLATE THOUGHTS

8:45 AM ET – Happy Saturday, Grinders! We have a manageable five game slate on tap tonight, but it’s not going to be roses when it comes to building DFS lineups. This slate is headlined by the Sixers/Bucks game… and a bunch of mediocre teams sprinkled in.

In addition, there is almost NO injury news of note this evening. There’s really only two key spots as of the time I am writing this.

Spurs – Keldon Johnson is DOUBTFUL tonight, which means we should see more playing time for the likes of Bates-Diop and Bassey to go along with more usage for the guards. They do have a friendly matchup against the Rockets, as well, and none of the Spurs are priced through the roof. They are likely going to be one of the better sources of value tonight, assuming Johnson sits.
