Here’s a suggested lineup for FantasyDraft NBA contests on Wednesday, February 10. We’re working with a 12-game slate.
Check out FantasyDraft’s $4k Pick and Roll Contest
Guard
Mike Conley – PG – MEM @ BKN – $11,700
With Marc Gasol out indefinitely, Conley is one of several Grizzlies players who should see an uptick in usage. He also sees a favorable matchup against the Nets.
E’Twaun Moore – SG – ATL @ CHI – $10,300
Moore will continue to benefit from the absence of Jimmy Butler, so take advantage of his value while you can. Though a good defense overall, the Hawks have struggled against opposing SGs this year.
Rajon Rondo – PG – SAC @ PHI – $14,500
Rondo and the Kings see a fantastic matchup against the 76ers. Philadelphia is especially giving to opposing PGs. This one has one of the higher over/unders of the night (216.5), and it’s expected to remain relatively close with the Kings sitting at -4.5.
Forward/Center
DeMarcus Cousins – C – SAC @ PHI – $19,800
I’m paying up for Cousins tonight considering his recent production and the phenomenal matchup. Philly is one of the worst teams in the league against opposing centers. Cousins has been extremely consistent of late, outside of his most recent game against the Cavs. Hopefully, the dud against Cleveland has some unwilling to pay up for the big man tonight.
Stanley Johnson – SF – DEN @ DET – $11,100
Johnson was a let down in his last game, and hopefully this will drive owners from including him in tonight’s lineups. He still figures to see a ton of run with the continued absence of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, allowing Johnson another opportunity to fill up the stat sheet.
Zach Randolph – PF – MEM @ BKN – $11,700
Here’s another pick based on Gasol’s absence. In his last game, he produced 42.75 FantasyDraft points, and that was with 10 minutes of Gasol. Prior to that, he posted solid double-doubles in three of his last six games.
Utility
Jeff Green – SF – MEM @ BKN – $10,400
Green has cooled off a bit of late, but he should have a nice opportunity to fill up the stat sheet in a favorable matchup along with his likely increased usage with Gasol’s absence.
Taj Gibson – PF – ATL @ CHI – $10,300
Gibson and the Bulls take on the Hawks Wednesday. Atlanta allows the most rebounds to opposing PFs. Gibson has a nice opportunity to grab another strong double-double.
