500k NBA Clutch Shot - Five Lineups To Rule Them All

There’s nothing like a called shot. Babe Ruth is enshrined in the heads of people like myself who know little to nothing about baseball just because he had the mindset to point his bat. It’s also the easiest way to publicly flare out in a towering ball of flames. To gather around your friends and family, say “watch me climb this tree” only to end up breaking your legs.
My point being, I’m the Babe Ruth of DFS and you’ll be able to see it for yourself when I’m the last analyst standing.

 

Lineup 1:

Porizingis is back, and will continue being underpriced tonight as long we don’t hear anything about a minutes restriction. We have a bad of the titans in this lineup, with Giannis and Vucevic duking it out to start the day. I expect the game to be fast-paced enough to the point where both of these all-stars will be able to feel comfortable on the court. Lamelo is looking better and better, making it so that for now, I wouldn’t be putting Gordan Hayward in your DFS lineups.

You’ll see a theme in these lineups with 76er’s players. With most of the team missing, their bench players have extremely have expected value, a much higher EV than their pricing for sure. “Stars and Scrubs” lineups or lineups where you mix up high priced and low priced players are most successful when you can actually find players who are $5,000 or less that will have an average-good fantasy day. With these 76er’s players seeing increased minutes, it’s hard for me to pass up on what I perceive to be a locked-in 15-30 points.

*With the Mavericks, Pelicans game postponed I turned Porzingis into Larry Nance and Vucevic into Andre Drummond

 

Lineup 2:

With Westbrook out, somebody needs to rebound the basketball. Wagner’s matchup tonight will be tough but he should see the requisite minutes for a big fantasy day out of sheer necessity. Tom Thibodeau’s merits as a coach will be up for contention but for fantasy purposes he’s excellent. He makes our job of trying to predict a player’s minutes much easier, and Randle seems to be one of the Knicks’ biggest beneficiaries. Brogden is an absolute steal and my favorite play of the slate.

*With the Mavericks, Pelicans game postponed I turned Brandon Ingram into Khris Middleton and I turned Joe into Austin Rivers.

 

Lineup 3:

I’ve talked about my philosophy for all of these players up to this point so instead, I’d like to say that I appreciate everyone who reads my articles.

*With the Mavericks, Pelicans game postponed I turned Bledsoe into Tyrese Maxey and I turned Hardaway into Hunter.

 

Lineup 4:

The Suns are going to stomp the 76ers tonight, regardless of whether or not Embiid plays. While Booker and Paul vulture each other’s ceilings in assists and rebounds it doesn’t mean they can’t both beat their price on the same night. Sabonis is a triple-double machine, I have a working theory that Rusell Westbrook puts on a Sabonis suit on nights that he’s “resting”, so I had to get him in a lineup.

*With the Mavericks, Pelicans game postponed I turned Porzingis into Siakam

 

Lineup 5:

Zion’s in the lineup because Steven Adams is a game-time decision, I won’t be switching him out even if Adams plays, but you can. Clint Capela is going against the Philadelphia 76ers, and if you can tell from my lineups, they won’t offer much compet…

Zion’s in the lineup because Steven Adams is a game-time decision, I won’t be switching him out even if Adams plays, but you can. Clint Capela is going against the Philadelphia 76ers, and if you can tell from my lineups, they won’t offer much competition for Clint. Bradley Beal might end up being the true sharp play, you should start your lineups by deciding if you want the upside of Beal or the ability to pay down with Neto and Wagner.

*With the Mavericks, Pelicans game postponed I turned Porzingis, Zion and Capela into Crowder, Bertans, and Drummond.

My favorite plays: Malcolm Brogdon, Kristaps Porzingis, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey.

Riskiest Plays: Harrison Barnes, Moritz Wagner, Danny Green, and Isiah Joe.
