Note – ALL Miami Heat players are fantastic options across all platforms today given their current roster situation and the fact that on DK only Bam Adebayo is priced over $5,100 and on FD he is the only player priced over $5,400. They are all in play today against the Suns. Top targets from Miami: Tyler Herro (Both), Goran Dragic , (Both) Duncan Robinson (DK), Andre Iguodala (Both), Kelly Olynyk (DK), Jae Crowder (FD).
DraftKings
Lou Williams , SG LAC – Total theory play here as we do not know for sure how the minutes rotation will play out but with Kawhi Leonard sitting out today we should see Paul George slide back to his forward position which would leave more minutes at shooting guard for Williams who has yet to play more than 21 minutes since his return to action. This would be a great match up for him if he gets the minutes bump and his price tag is very reasonable today.
Gary Trent , SG POR – We have seen enough of Trent that I am ready to believe. He has played at least 34 minutes in each of the last three games while averaging 30 FP over the last four contests. At under $5,000 this is a great value for a player that is really rolling right now and has a defined role in a high scoring offense.
Cameron Johnson , PF PHO – Johnson has been in the Suns starting lineup since play resumed and he has taken full advantage of the opportunity. Over the last four games he is averaging 31 FP while playing 34 minutes a night. The Suns are drawing a depleted Miami team this afternoon and Johnson should be in a great spot for another productive night.
FanDuel
Marcus Morris , PF LAC – Morris is already plenty a ton of minutes and now that Leonard is sitting out today that should also open up the opportunity for him on the offensive end as well. Morris is averaging 28 FD points over the last two games and this is a good match up for him should he draw Carmelo Anthony defense.
Cameron Payne , PG PHO – Payne has been playing about 20 minutes a night off the bench since the NBA and he is putting in work, having gone for at least 21 FP in each of those four games. Payne has scored at least 10 points in three straight games as well. If you are looking for a punt play at point guard today then this spot against a depleted Miami Heat could be the play.
Jordan Clarkson , SG UTA – Donovan Mitchell is questionable to play today and if he ends up missing time it is hard not to assume Clarkson is the big winner from that development. We already know he is locked in for 20-to-25 minutes a night off the bench and he is an elite scoring talent. In GPP’s this is the dart throw I usually make.
