Zach Randolph officially out
As expected Randolph will miss tonight’s game with a knee injury. Jamychal Green will once again likely start and becomes a decent punt play, at just a couple over the minimum on both sites. Last night, he got into foul trouble but still played 23 minutes. This news gives a huge bump to Marc Gasol. He is coming off a monster game last night posting a triple-double. He is a steal on DK at only $7,000.

Jeff Teague Active, Not sure how much he plays
Well this gives us a lot of clarity. Don’t bet on Teague playing a lot of minutes tonight, probably like the George Hill situation will only play if needed. Still think Dennis Schroder is a very safe play. In the three games without Teague, Schroder is averaging 14 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds per game. He is a great play on FD at $5,100 and at $5,600 on DK.
As reported by: Chris Vivlamore Zach Randolph doubtful tonight
Is Zach Randolph playing tonight? “I don’t think he is,” Dave Joerger says. “But we’ll see.” ZBo missed last night w/sore knee. Jamychal Green will once again likely start and becomes a decent punt play at just a couple over the minimum on both sites. Last night, he got into foul trouble but still played 23 minutes. This news gives a huge bump to Marc Gasol. He is coming off a monster game last night posting a triple-double. He is a steal on DK at only $7,000.
As reported by: Jeff Mcdonald Manu Ginobili will play Saturday
Ginobili will play on Saturday night after missing a couple games. He is an easy fade as you can’t trust his minutes coming back from an injury. Him returning hurts the value of Danny Green.
As reported by: Paul Garcia LaMarcus Aldridge out Saturday
With the Spurs playing a back-to-back, Aldridge will sit out Saturday’s game with an ankle injury. With Aldridge out, except Boris Diaw or David West to start. It’s Gregg Popovich so you can never truly trust the rotations. The only Spur I would consider tonight would be Kawhi Leonard, and with Aldridge out he is a very safe play.
Bradley Beal to Start Tonight
Beal will return to the starting lineup tonight. He is only a GPP play, as he is returning from an injury and his minutes are unknown. At the same price range Giannis Antetokounmpo and Monta Ellis make better plays. With Beal starting, forget Garrett Temple as a punt play.
As reported by: Washington Wizards Nerlens Noel Starting Tonight
Noel will return to the starting lineup on Saturday night. He had a solid game last night with 16 points and 9 rebounds. He has a tough matchup tonight against the Heat, but he is also worth a look at in a GPP. He is under 7K on both sites.
As reported by: Brian Seltzer Dwight Howard Questionable Saturday
Howard is questionable for Saturday; he had been sitting out the second of back-to-back games for the Rockets. He may play because the Rockets have three days off after tonight. If he plays I would only use Howard in a GPP, as his minutes aren’t safe. Also if he play this hurts the value of Clint Capela.
As reported by: Jonathan Feigen Thabo Sefolosha will start Saturday
Sefolosha will start Saturday night against Cleveland. He is a GPP punt play only; he is just not a great scorer. Also he will likely guard LeBron James, and focus most of his energy on the defensive end.
As reported by: Chris Vivlamore Jeff Teague game-time decision, won’t start
Teague will give it a go it warmups to see if he can play Saturday night. Even if he can play, he will come off the bench. Odds point to Teague sitting out, but we will wait for the official word. Dennis Schroder is still a very safe play. In the three games without Teague, Schroder is averaging 14 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds per game. He is a great play on FD at $5,100 and at $5,600 on DK.
As reported by: Jason Lloyd Bradley Beal game-time decision
Beal will test his shoulder in warmups and see if he can play Saturday night. Hopefully we get official word before tipoff. If he plays he is an easy fade as his minutes could be limited because of an injury. Also if he plays it hurts the value of Garrett Temple.
As reported by: Jorge Castillo Zach Randolph Questionable Tonight
Randolph is questionable tonight with a knee injury. Jamychal Green will once again likely start and becomes a decent punt play. Last night he got into foul trouble but still played 23 minutes. This news gives a huge bump to Marc Gasol. He is coming off a monster game last night posting a triple-double. He is a steal on DK at only $7,000.
As reported by: Tom Orsborn Rodney Stuckey not on a minutes restriction
Stuckey will play on Saturday after missing the last couple of games. With George Hill likely not to play also, he makes an intriguing GPP play. He will likely get the backup point guard duties. Frank Vogel told the media that Stuckey is not on a minute’s restriction for tonight’s game. He is just $3,800 on DK.
As reported by: Indiana Pacers Chase Budinger will start Saturday
With George Hill still battling an illness, Budinger will get the start for the Pacers on Saturday night. He is only a GPP punt play. In his last start he only got 18 minutes and finished with just 4 assists. He will also have to either guard Parker or Antetokounmpo, so he could get into early foul trouble.
As reported by: Indiana Pacers George Hill will dress but only play in an emergency role
Vogel: “George [Hill] is not ready to be back yet… We’re going to dress him but hopefully not use him.” With this news Monta Ellis once again makes a solid play. He is priced at $6,300 on DK and $6,600 on FD. With Stuckey coming back it might cut into his minutes a little, but still he is a very safe play. He has averaged 33 FD points in his last three games.
