We have a light four-game slate Tuesday night, so finding the right foundations for your lineup is more important than ever. The slate isn’t very top heavy tonight; only four players check it with price tags over $9,000. The highest projected point total of the night is the matchup between the Wizards and Hawks in Atlanta at a whopping 236, so you have plenty of options from those two defensively-challenged squads. With a slate like this, you don’t want to miss out on a big performance and need to make sure you have room to pencil in some of those stud players. Below are the players you need to get into your lineups tonight to optimize your chances of winning.

Point Guard

John Wall is the stud to pay up for tonight ($10,400)
Wall is fresh off of a season-high 40 point performance Sunday where he racked up 78.2 FD points. Of course, you shouldn’t automatically expect 75+ points tonight, but you can expect an output worthy of the price tag. Wall is facing the Atlanta Hawks, who give up more FD points to point guards than any other team in the NBA. His usage rate should be through the roof with Otto Porter still sidelined, and Kelly Oubre and Austin Rivers shipped out in the recent trade. Wall should be well worth the price tonight.

Trae Young ($6,900) of Hawks could make for a great play in the same game. Washington is right behind Atlanta in giving up the second most FD points to point guards. The rookie can score and dish out assists in bunches, but his inconsistency makes him a riskier play.
