Welcome to the Saturday edition of FanDuel NBA lineup advice. We have a relatively small five-game slate to navigate today. It doesn’t feature much start power, as no player on the slate commands a five-figure salary. The most expensive player, Trae Young, is questionable after missing last night’s game with an illness and there are several other injuries to monitor throughout the day. Let’s dive in.

Point Guard
Collin Sexton (CLE): $6,700 vs. DEN
The point guard is easily the deepest position on tonight’s slate with at least eight viable options that I counted as in play but Sexton stands out among all of them. He’s been a ball hog all season and with Darius Garland and Kevin Porter sidelined there’s nobody in the backcourt to share the ball with even if he wanted to. He’s seen a 30.2% usage rate over the last two games and put up over 50 FanDuel (FD) points in each of them. His salary jumped $1,000 but it still doesn’t feel like enough.
