Game 2 (Cleveland at Golden State)
There are some more massive DFS contests today and Golden State looks to take command of this series after surviving a monster game from LeBron James in the series opener. I’ve included the game flow history for the two teams, minutes history and projections, FanDuel and DraftKings projections, and team history in blowout situations, and more. Andre Iguodala is doubtful and looks as if he will remain out. The big injury news to keep an eye on is the status of Klay Thompson. He’s questionable after suffering a left leg injury last game that he played through before noticeably limping off the court at the end of the game. His absence would have a huge impact on the Warriors reserve players as he typically plays 35-40 minutes and those minutes would have to go somewhere. It’s worth noting that Thompson did tell local media that he is optimistic and plans on playing, so all projections will be based with the assumption that he’s a full go. However, if he is ruled out late, make sure to add additional shares of Nick Young and Patrick McCaw who should benefit the most from Klay not playing.
