Markelle Fultz , PG ORL – Fultz played 29 minutes in the Magic surprising Game 1 win over the Bucks. He finished with 15 points, two rebounds, six assists and one block while shooting 6-for-11 from the floor. Fultz has by far the most upside at the point guard position for the Magic even with veteran D.J. Augustin playing well. I see no reason to think Fultz falls out of rotation and the former No.1 pick should be using these playoffs as his breakout now that he’s healthy and flashing upside.

Steven Adams , C OKC – The Thunder were torched by the Rockets in Game 1 but it’s not because of anything Adams did as he finished with 17 points and 12 rebounds over 28 minutes. With the Rockets not using a traditional center this will be a major mismatch for them given Adam’s size and physicality. I have no problem going back to the well here.

Eric Gordon , SG HOU – With Russell Westbrook still out of the lineup we will see increased usage here from Gordon who played 30 minutes in Game 1 against the Thunder and finished with 21 points, three rebounds and four assists while shooting 7-of-17 from the field.

FanDuel

Jeff Green , PF HOU – Green has thrived as the Rockets small ball center and in Game 1 he finished with 22 points, six rebounds and four assists over 32 minutes. I really like the $5,100 price tag here and honestly, the scoring is no fluke, Green may have underwhelmed compared to expectations from when he was first drafted but he has settled into a really nice role over the past few years and the scoring talent flashes every now and then.

Hassan Whiteside , C POR – So, obviously Nurkic is the monster here but on FanDuel how do we not like the block upside we get from Whiteside even in limited minutes. Also, if we are getting Whiteside against the Lakers second unit that too is a plus. Of course he is a risk but over 25 minutes in Game 1 he scored seven points with eight boards and five blocks.

Goran Dragic , PG MIA – I don’t feel like this is point chasing to be honest. Dragic is a VERY good player and with this being he playoffs it should be no shock that he saw 34 minutes for the Heat in Game 1. I know that Kendrick Nunn did not play in Game 1 and that likely lead to the increased minutes but it’s playoff time and Miami should be giving their best players the minutes and Dragic fits the bill.
