Our top-ranked experts will also provide the reasons for their picks, so you can make informed decisions when setting your lineups.

Thursday, November 30th

Tonight, we have a five game slate with only the 76ers on a back-to-back. Let’s have a look at my favorite play for each position on the slate.

Point Guard

PG: Dennis Schroder, Atlanta Hawks, $33

The Hawks get a home matchup with the Cavs tonight and are only 7.5 point underdogs. Hopefully this game plays competitive because it could be filled with a lot of fantasy goodness, as both teams play at a fast pace (Hawks 11th in pace, Cavs 12th in pace) and don’t play much defense (Hawks 26th DEFRTG, Cavs 25th DEFRTG).
