Fantasy Impact
In Jacque Vaughn’s first game as Nets interim head coach, he’ll make a change to the starting lineup and go with Jordan at the five. DJ should get the opportunity for more minutes, which really boosts his fantasy appeal. He’s been averaging 8.3 points and 9.9 rebounds in 22 minutes off the bench for Brooklyn this year, but maybe he can push for 25+ minutes with the starters today against the Bulls. He makes for a solid DFS play with this news breaking today after his salary was set last night, and Jarrett Allen probably comes down a peg as well. Allen is still very much rosterable, but he might see fewer minutes going forward if DJ sticks in Coach Vaughn’s starting lineup.
