NBA GPP Plays 12/19/17

Fuego Steve’s NBA GPP Plays 12/18/17

NBA GPP Cheat Sheet Prices listed are Fanduel unless otherwise noted. My NBA articles will mostly focus on Fanduel lineup construction since besides center, you need to play two at each position. The players recommended are usually still good plays on DraftKings unless the pricing is drastically different. Also, many players on DraftKings have dual position eligibility or may be listed at a different position. I will try to mention if there is a specific good play on DK based on price or position eligibility. The players listed are in no particular order, as I am giving choices to help build your lineups at all price points. Added Point Guard Kyrie Irving – $8100 – The Pacers have been good against the point guard recently. I think Irving can break the trend. Westbrook – $11300 – Westbrook, Westbrook, Westbrook Damian Lillard – $8700 – Price is down slightly, which makes me like him even more. Goran Dragic – $6100 – Be careful, he is a game time decision, but if he plays I like him. Khris Dunn – $7500 – Been playing well, like the floor and ceiling. Value/Punt Plays – J.J. Barea $5300, Yogi Ferrell $4800 Jawun Evans $3500, Milos Teodosic $4900, Tyler Johnson $4600 almost must play if Dragic sits Shooting Guard Victor Oladipo – $9300 – Back to a reasonable price. Ceiling still there. James Harden – $11000 – Think I prefer the savings down to Oladipo Donovan Mitchell – $7400 – The Rockets allow the highest DVP over the past five games at shooting guard. Will Barton – $6700 – Price dropped back to reasonable range. JJ Redick – $5900 – Still been playing well and can score more with no Joel Embid. Value/Punt Plays – Eric Gordon $4900, Andre Roberson $4600, Jeremy Lamb $4500, Wesley Mathews $4800 Small Forward Kevin Durant – $12000 – 66, 74, 51, 60 Fanduel points in the four games Curry has been out. Great floor, great ceiling. Jimmy Butler – $9000 – Finally hitting those 50-60 point ceiling games we were used to last season. Jaylen Brown – $5500 – Good play at that price range. T.J. Warren – $7800 – This is a risky one due to his recent down play. But the Mavericks are allowing the most Fanduel points to the small forward over the last five games. If there is ever a spot to bounce back, this is it. Robert Covington – $7400 – Always has higher ceiling with no Joel Embid. Value/Punt Plays – Andre Iguodala $4400, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist $4800, David Nwaba $4800 Power Forward Some good value at the position tonight. Ben Simmons – $9900 – Highest ceiling at the position tonight. Jordan Bell – $4700 – Great value, good play. Dario Saric – $6500 – Five straight games 28-35 Fanduel points. That’s a decent floor of 5X. Taj Gibson – $5800 – He bounced back as expected last game with 38 FD points. Julius Randle – $5300 – Could have big game with no Draymond Green to guard him. Value/Punt Plays – Bell, Amir Johnson $3500, Jordan Mickey $3900, Larry Nance $4900 Center Paying down at center tonight might be the way to go. Richaun Holmes – $4600 – good play and good value. Doesn’t have huge ceiling. Ekpe Udoh – $4700 – With no Gobert or Favors should do well again. Though I wouldn’t expect almost 49 fantasy points like the other night. Jusef Nurkic – $6800 – If you like DVP numbers, the Timberwolves are in the bottom five over the last five games. Clint Capela – $7400 – Be careful, he is questionable. But if he plays like the matchup with the Jazz big men out. Al Horford – $7600 – The Pacers have actually been better against the position as of late. I still think Horford is pretty safe, though probably paying down myself. Value/Punt Plays – Brook Lopez $4200, Udoh $4700, Holmes $4600 Catch NBA Live at 5 today with myself and JaguarLou going over our latest thoughts on the slate.

I will try to mention if there is a specific good play on DK based on price or position eligibility. The players listed are in no particular order, as sometimes I am giving choices to help build your lineups at all price points. Point Guard Russell Westbrook – $11100 – Ceiling always there. See last night in double OT. Chris Paul – $9600 – Hope you played him last night as recommended. Kyrie Irving – $8400 – Memphis in the bottom five of DVP over the last five games at the position. Jeff Teague – $6400 – We like to target the Suns guards. Value/Punt Plays – Yogi Ferrell $4400, Ricky Rubio $4900 Shooting Guard James Harden – $11400 – Better matchup tonight than last night. Khris Middleton – $7800 – Quote from yesterday “Good floor, would like him to hit his ceiling”. He did with 55 Fanduel points. Not sure he can do it two in a row though. Nicholas Batum – $6000 – Went for 28 last night which was not quite 5X. Think he can get to 30 tonight against a poor Trailblazers team versus the shooting guard. Donovan Mitchell – $7800 – GPP play for me due to his high ceiling. Value/Punt Plays – Dwayne Wade $4800, Malcolm Brogden $4700, Jeremy Lamb $4600 Small Forward Rudy Gay – $5900 – I expect a bounce back game tonight especially if some starters rest for the Spurs. Dallas worst DVP over the last five games. Trevor Ariza – $5300 – Same as yesterday, but higher ceiling if no Clint Capela. “Safe, but no real ceiling”. Courtney Lee – $5800 – Like with or without Porzingas. Like more without. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist – $5400 – Going against second worst DVP tonight. Jaylen Brown – $5600 – Another option in the $5-6K range I like. Value/Punt Plays – Joe Ingles $4900, Josh Richardson $4900 Power Forward James Johnson – $6500 – Been playing well recently, like the upside. LaMarcus Aldrige – $8500 – Price jumped back up with Leonard resting tonight. Carmelo Anthony – $6800 – Same as yesterday… “GPP play only, risky but has upside”. Taj Gibson – $5800 – Disappointed two nights ago, think he bounces back. Value/Punt Plays – Jeff Green $4300, Derrick Favors $4900 if he plays, Tarik Black $3500 if no Capela. Center DeAndre Jordan – $8600 – Should get all the rebounds versus the Heat. Kevin Love – $8000 – Let’s hope I get him right tonight. Good floor, good ceiling. Marc Gasol – $8200 – Good ceiling versus a poor rebounding Celtics team. Karl-Anthony Towns – $10600 – Highest ceiling at the position tonight. Value/Punt Plays – Aron Baynes $3800

I will try to mention if there is a specific good play on DK based on price or position eligibility. The players listed are in no particular order, as sometimes I am giving choices to help build your lineups at all price points. Point Guard Russell Westbrook – $10900 – Had a triple double last game with only 10 points scored. He will score more tonight. Chris Paul – $9400 – Has been playing very well. Four straight games over 43 Fanduel points and two of those four over 57 fantasy points. Kyle Lowry – $8300 – The Nets are second worst in DVP over the last five games. Rajon Rondo – $6000 – Like the upside for tournaments. Damian Lillard – $9500 – Prefer Paul, but can get behind Lillard as well. Value/Punt Plays – Tyler Johnson $4700, Ricky Rubio $4900, Andrew Harrison $4500 Shooting Guard James Harden – $11300 – Can still hit his ceiling even with Paul playing so well. Gary Harris – $6400 – The Pelicans have allowed the most Fanduel points over the last five and ten games versus the shooting guard position. Khris Middleton – $7800 – Good floor, would like him to hit his ceiling. Victor Oladipo – $9600 – Back under $10k, still has the same ceiling as Harden at this point. Nicholas Batum – $6000 – Good price still for his possible ceiling games of 50+. Value/Punt Plays – Alec Burks $4200, E’twaun Moore $4800, Malcolm Brogden $4900, Jeremy Lamb $4600 Small Forward Paul George – $7600 – Disappointed two days ago, I am willing to go back to the well. Otto Porter – $7000 – Clippers third worst DVP at small forward over the last five games. Kawhi Leonard – $6800 – Only needs 34 fantasy points to hit 5X. He can get that even if his minutes are being monitored. Trevor Ariza – $5100 – Safe, but no real ceiling. Giannis Antetokounmpo – They call him the Freak for a reason. Over 60 Fanduel points the last two games. Value/Punt Plays – Sam Dekker $4300, David Nwaba $4600, Joe Ingles $4700 Power Forward Ben Simmons – $9200 – Price is down to match his recent play. Still like the ceiling. LaMarcus Aldrige – $7900 – Price is also down, due to Leonard being back most likely which makes sense. Little lower ceiling due to this but still like him tonight. Serge Ibaka – $6500 – Don’t like the price jump, but still playable. Carmelo Anthony – $6500 – GPP play only, risky but has upside. Jayson Tatum – $5700 – Favorite play priced under $6k. Value/Punt Plays – Ryan Anderson $4000, Kenneth Faried $4700, Trey Lyles $4300 Center Andre Drummond – $9400 – Didn’t disappoint last night with over 50 Fanduel points. Always like playing centers versus the Pacers. Marc Gasol – $8300 – The Hawks have the worst DVP versus centers over the last five games. Steven Adams – $6900 – Safe floor, though doesn’t have the ceiling of a Drummond or Gasol. Clint Capela – $7400 – The Spurs have been great against the center the past five games. I think Capela can break through though with the focus on Paul and Harden. Rudy Gobert – $7000 – Price is still deflated since coming back from injury. Think he can hit 6X tonight. Value/Punt Plays – Marcin Gortat $4500

The players listed are in no particular order, as sometimes I am giving choices to help build your lineups at all price points. Point Guard Rajon Rando – $5800 – Love his recent game logs at a decent price. He is hitting 5-6X every time out practically with a ceiling of 60 fantasy points. Kyle Lowry – $8000 – The Suns DVP versus point guard has improved over the last five but is still near the bottom over the past ten games. Russell Westbrook – $11200 – Good floor right now, due for a ceiling game soon. Kyrie Irving – $8100 – Make sure he is playing, probably right now. Value/Punt Plays – Tyler Johnson $4700, Mike James $4500, Andrew Harrison $4200 Shooting Guard Victor Oladipo – $10000 – Hard to pull the trigger at this price, but disregard the name and look at his game logs. Price is up for a reason. Will Barton – $7000 – Both he and Garry Harris are playing very well with no Jokic in the lineup. Khris Middleton – $7400 – Going against the worst DVP tonight at the position over the last five games. Pelicans can’t stop shooting guards. Tyreke Evans – $7300 – Like the upside versus the Wizards. Value/Punt Plays – E’Twaun Moore $4600, Jeremy Lamb $4900 Small Forward Jonathan Simmons – $6500 – Playing very well with no Evan Fournier and now Aaron Gordon is out also. Paul George – $7600 – Price is back down some since he’s been back. Like it. The Freak – $12100 – Think I am fading tonight and playing Middleton and maybe Eric Bledsoe instead. Joe Ingles – $5200 – More of a value play, but could be in my lineups. Value/Punt Plays – Josh Richardson $4700, Bojan Bogdanovic $4500, Mario Hezonja $3700, Wilson Chandler $4100 Power Forward Carmelo Anthony – $6700 – Risky play, but has the ceiling and decent price. Thaddeus Young – $6300 – Not much to pay up for at the position tonight. Serge Ibaka – $5800 – Goes against the third worst DVP over the past five games. James Johnson – $5900 – Always risky, but has upside with no Whiteside in lineup. Value/Punt Plays – Nikola Mirotic $4800, Domantas Sabonis $4700, Daniel Theis $3500 Center Nikola Vucevic – $9300 – He’s on fire right now, so don’t mind him going against DeAndre Jordan. Aron Baynes – $3600 – Also a value play, should see increased minutes with no Al Horford. Steven Adams – $6900 – JaguarLou and I always talk about targeting centers versus the Pacers. DeAndre Jordon – $7900 – If want to save money off of Vuc can go other side with Jordan. Boogie – $12000 – Prefer more if AD is out Value/Punt Plays – Baynes $3600, Alex Len $4900 if Tyson Chandler sits. TUNE IN TO NBA LIVE AT 5 FOR MYSELF AND JAGUARLOU’S UPDATED PLAYS OF THE DAY
