Cleanthony Early Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Early has been tabbed as Anthony replacement against the Pacers on Tuesday. With only five games on the slate, Early is a viable GPP play tonight. The Pacers rank 5th in DRE vs. SFs over the course of the season, making Early a risky option. Early's does not possess much upside in this contest and Paul George should be able to take advantage. If you're paying up at SF, George should be considered an elite option with Kevin Durant also off the slate.

Carmelo Anthony's season is done and will not play against the Pacers tonight. Cleanthony Early is expected to start in his place but it is not official yet. Early is a low-end punt play against a Pacers defense that is ranked 6th in DvP vs. SFs over the last three weeks.

Anthony rested on Sunday against the Pacers but will be starting against the Hornets on Wednesday. With Nicolas Batum out of the lineup, Carmelo Anthony should be able to exceed value with his asking price having dropped. Anthony has not been $7,700 on DK since December, leaving us with some nice tournament upside. The Knicks will round out the starting five with Jerian Grant, Sasha Vujacic, Derrick Williams, and Robin Lopez

Cleanthony Early is starting with Carmelo Anthony resting on Sunday. Early had 18 DKFP against Brooklyn on Friday in 23 minutes. Expect him to play closer to 28 minutes with Anthony ruled out. There is a chance that he struggles with Paul George expected to guard him. The Pacers rank 8th in DvP vs. SFs over the last three weeks, showing us that Early has minimal upside.

Anthony will be resting against the Pacers on Sunday. Carmelo plans to play in the remaining four games for the Knicks. Cleanthony Early will replace him in the starting lineup. This will be Early's first start of the season.
