What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
Notorious: I prefer single-entry and small-field tournaments. My plan of attack tonight is to leave some roster spots open for the final game of the slate. I’m hoping that we don’t know the availability of Ja Morant and Santi Aldama at lock since I want the field to be unsure about the situation. I’d love to take advantage of late injury news if possible.
Krayton: I will be playing single-entry and 20-max contests on both sites. I want to be overweight on the Timberwolves in their elite matchup against the Wizards. Guys like Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle will be more popular, but I will be overweight on Naz Reid, Donte DiVincenzo, and Rudy Gobert to be different than the field, as they are projecting for much less ownership.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll just be playing one lineup in single-entry contests. I plan to stack up the NOP/MIA game while fading the chalky Bam Adebayo. I’ll fill in the rest of my lineup with Minnesota pieces, mostly ignoring the later games.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?

About the Author
Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
