We are starting to get hot again! My lineups have cashed in all contests in three consecutive days, and my articles have been pretty spot on with the picks within that time. All in all, I am 5-2 since the All-Star break. On today's main slate, we have 10 games with endless value which makes me really like the "stars and scrubs" lineup approach for today. There are so many great plays today that lineup building will be tough, so my player pools will be very large. As I say everyday, the top plays and my lineup core can change with injury or rest news, so make sure to stay up to date. Let's dive into the breakdown of the NBA main slate on Fanduel today!
Reminder: If you would like the lineup that I will be using, RT the article post on twitter for at @SportsVerseHQ, DM @Excyphir, and follow them both. Since my lineups usually change with injury news, be sure to check DMs before lock in case of a change. I usually send my lineups out around 30 minutes to an hour prior to lock, so as long as you have followed the steps and DMed me, you will receive it.
Top Play:
Caris LeVert - $4,400:
This spot is usually reserved for a more expensive player, and it very easily could have been Giannis again, but I decided to switch it up for today. With his price not fully adjusted to the role that he has returned to, Caris LeVert at $4,400 is just too good to not write about. He played 29 minutes and scored 30 FD points on Monday, which is way too much LeVert to pass on at his price. Like Satoransky, the only reason that LeVert isn't a lock is because of the number of excellent options on the slate. He is a part of my core today.
Best Value:
Tomas Satoransky - $3,900:
To start, this slate is filled to the brim with terrific value options. There are numerous players that could easily be interchanged for this spot, but I decided to give it to Tomas Satoransky. In the last two games, Satoransky has passed Coby White on the depth chart, which includes drawing starts and playing over 25 minutes. In these last two games, Satoransky has scored 33 FD points both times. At a price of $3,900, that is about as good of value as you can ask for, and he should continue to smash his price tag easily. Sato is a part of my core today, and the only reason that he isn't a lock is because of the number of other great plays.
