G1- Avery Bradley BOS- Bradley is averaging 18 points and 4 rebounds over his last 3 games. That's 11 points and 2 rebounds over his season averages. Bradley and the Celtics are also coming off of an off day, so he should be well rested. Expect 17+ fantasy points.
G2- Paul George IND- George had 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists over his season average when theses two teams first met earlier in the season. All of which are 2 units above his season average. Also, he is averaging 14 points and 6 rebounds in his last two games.
G3- Rajon Rondo BOS- Rondo is averaging 19 points, 13 assits, and 9 rebounds in 3 games this year vs. the Knicks. That is 7 points, 2 assists, and 5 rebounds over his season averages. He almost averages a triple-double vs. the Knicks!
F1- Tristan Thompson CLE- Thompson averages his season average vs. the Pistons, however that is with 10 less minutes than he is getting now with Varejao and Erden out. Thompson and the Cavs are coming off of an off day. Furthermore, Thompson is coming off a horrible night shooting 1-8, and we expect him to bounce back vs. the sub par Detroit defense. Expect 17+ fantasy points.
F2- Derrick Williams MIN- Williams is coming off of a double-double vs. a solid defensive team in the Pacers. With Love sidelined with his concussion, Williams should look to score more and get more minutes. Beasley has also been doing well with Love out, but for value we still like Williams more.
F3- Matt Barnes LAL- Barnes has posted a double-double in the the two games without Kobe Bryant who is still injured. Barnes scored 12 points, 5 over his season average vs. SA in his only game this year vs. them in just 23 minutes. Barnes has gotten an average of 32 mins/game the last two games.
C1- Greg Monroe DET- This second year player has put on a show this year, remember him for next years draft. Monroe and the Pistons are also coming off of an off day so he should be well rested after playing 42 minutes vs. the Bulls on Sunday. Both of Cleveland's centers are hurt, so who is going to guard Monroe? Jamison?... Luke Walton? No one is going to be able to keep him out of the paint, or off the glass. Expect 29+ fantasy points.
C2- Andrew Bynum LAL- Bynum put up 16 points, on a bad shooting night for him, and 30 rebounds last time these teams met! Bynum is on fire the way Demarcus Cousins for SAC was a few weeks ago. He probably won't have 30 rebounds again, but he should definitely have over his season average of 12.

ReplyDeleteWoops! Thanks for the comment. Changed.
ReplyDeleteI would probably switch out Cunningham for Derrick Williams....just a thought.
ReplyDeleteWe really like Cunningham and that is why we have him in our lineup. Still doesn't change the fact we like Wililams. So, because we do write ups before most injury news is discovered, we just make changes to our lineup and tweet it out to you guys.
