Point Guard:
Stud – Tony Parker, $6,800: “The Spurs have smashed the Trail Blazers two games in a row and tonight the series heads back to Portland, which should give the Trail Blazers a better chance of keeping the game close. Through the first two games Parker is averaging 42 fantasy points a game and he will continue to put on a clinic versus young stud Damian Lillard.” - From yesterday’s Dime. His price increased by $100, but he scored another 39.4 fantasy points during last night’s game three. He will be in for a big game four as the Spurs look to sweep the Trail Blazers.
Scrub – George Hill, $5,500: Hill is averaging 25.7 fantasy points this series versus the Wizards through three games. This production makes him an excellent target for 50/50 and H2H games due to his consistency. He also provides a bit of salary cap relief to fit some more studs into your lineup.
Shooting Guard:
Stud – Manu Ginobli $5,500: “It was good to see Ginobli follow up a game one dud with a big 30 fantasy points scored during game two. He remains ridiculously underpriced and is one of the best dollar for dollar plays available today. “ – From yesterday’s Dime. Similarly to his teammate Parker he had a solid game three finishing with 28.3 fantasy points. A small $100 price increase from yesterday is certainly no deterrent tonight.
Scrub - Wesley Matthews, $5,300: Matthews followed up a game one dud with 26.4 fantasy points scored game two and 31.3 fantasy points scored game three. When you can get Joe Johnson production for $1000 cheaper Matthews makes for a great play tonight.
Small Forward:
Stud – Trevor Ariza, $6,200: “In two of the three games so far in the Wizards versus Pacers series Ariza has scored at least 34 fantasy points. With the Pacers focusing their defensive energy on Bradley Beal is opens up a fantastic opportunity for Ariza to continue to play at a high level.” - From yesterday’s Dime.
Scrub - Mirza Teletovic, $3,600: Over the last two games Teletovic has been able to get into a bit of a scoring rhythm finishing game two with 20.4 fantasy points and game three with 18.2. He is only $100 over FanDuel.com minimum price saving you a whole bunch of money for other players.
Power Forward:
Stud – Tim Duncan $7,600: “It would be nice to see the Trail Blazers be a competitive team this series so players like Duncan would be forced to play up to their potential. There is not a single power forward today that is not overpriced based on recent production, but a price tag of under $8k for Duncan is one of the better ones available.” - From a previous Dime and it still rings true. The best part is Duncan had his best game of the series game three and his price dropped $100 from yesterday.
Scrub – Kevin Garnett $4,200: Garnett was unable to score a point during game one versus the Heat, but has since posted two fairly solid games for his price tag. His fantasy output is certainly capped by minutes limit, but he will provide nice source of salary cap relief.
Center:
Stud – Chris Bosh, $6,200: As surprising as it may seem Bosh has actually stepped up his game during round two. He has averaged 29.6 fantasy points a game through three games versus the Nets and will continue to play well versus an old and decrepit frontcourt.
Stud – Roy Hibbert $4,200: “There was little chance of Hibbert repeating his big 44.3 fantasy point game, but he did have a solid follow up performance with 25 fantasy points in game three. With his price still being bottom barrel cheap he makes a fantastic sleeper tonight, especially in tournament play.” – From yesterday’s Dime.
Good luck tonight. Be sure to follow both @eDraftSports and me @Cui2iousGeoi2ge
