Agreed on Lonzo

I can’t play Lonzo on DK today with Nunn right there at virtually the same price. Gonna ride that until the wheels fall off.

I am probably the biggest Cam Johnson supporter in DFS this year. I have had 50% or more almost every slate dating back like 3 weeks ago just waiting for his blow up lol. He is a baller but just hasn’t shined yet It is getting tiresome but I will obviously have some because it could be tonight. But I think the best play is Cam Payne. Payne subbed in last night for the last two minutes when Booker went out. Payne will chuck and if it is falling look out. Also, Paul can’t score anymore and his shot just looked terrible last night and honestly he doesn’t really have a ceiling IMO so I just cant play him. I mean he had 15 dimes last night and barely made value. They will need scoring for sure. Bridges is a baller but I am not sure about a chalk Bridges. Have to think about it. I see Cam/Bridges/Payne getting up quite a few shots each. Oddly enough, Ayton has started balling and proving me wrong lately and he was impressive last night. They weren’t running any plays for him or really getting him involved he was just crashing the boards and making things happen. B2B scares me tho. Lastly, not that we need the value it but he helped me in SD last night and could get 7-8x with the B2B…Frank the Tank. That was a lot of words to say I rank PHX value Payne/Cam/Bridges in that order

Also, hasn’t Luka been historically semi-poor in 3rd of 4 nights?

Jamal Murray (shoulder) questionable Saturday. https://t.co/a94oAeSBjp

Good insight Panda. I have to adjust my mindset. Often, I play it too safe just to try to cash.

Welp, fire up Monte.

Anthony Edwards

Why man why

Any thoughts on Bam tonight? Popping on some projections.

Bam let me down big time last night, but not afraid of going back to the well here. Nets have been atrocious defensively. 22/10/few bleals type of line seems reasonable to me

Stacking sixers/detroit
Grant/Ellington bring back with Dwight Howard
Who would have ever thought lol

I think it’s legitimately fantastic that I was mulling over my Harden exposure and had to be like “wait, are they in Miami? Because Friday night in Miami would change a lot…”

Like tears in rain.

What about vanderbilt?

Kristaps Porzingis (injury management) listed doubtful Saturday. https://t.co/XHHdkMzEeJ

Yes

Kristaps Porzingis (injury management) listed doubtful Saturday.

Oh yeah, forgot Irrigator was back.

I’ll have some. 45-50 fpts seems very likely

Neck-tat time? Or WCS?

Will bam be matched up on KD tonight? Wouldnt he kinda lose things such as rebound opportunities having to chase KD at the 3 pt line?

They can just put Boban in for a rotation or two and its a wrap.

Ayton success seems directly correlated with Cam being inserted into the starting lineup and Crowder coming off the bench. I think that is why Cam has taken a dip also. I have been playing him like as well and can’t jump off now that there is extra usage to go around. With all the other better value opening up I’m sure I end up with only 10-20%. Agreed on Payne being the best value option from the suns side

Unfortunately this makes me like Cousins more again.

Heat dont really play defense like that. They funnel shots to the wing….hence Norm Powell, OG last night. Will be interesting to see because Joe Harris could go beserk vs the way the Heat play defense at no ownership.
