HOLY SHIT I MONEY’D ON BOTH MAIN LINEUPS YESTERDAY!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉I have an apartment tour in an hour so the results aren’t on Instagram yet, but they will be up by the end of today. With all that being said, there will only be analysis on one lineup today because of the aforementioned time crunch.
Lineup 1:
Steph Curry: The most amazing thing to me about Steph Curry is how we have all grown collectively numb to his death-defying three-point shots. Curry is regularly making shots that are, for all intents and purposes, impossible for other players. He and Dame should have a shoot-off.
Jaylen Nowell: With Nowell taking Russell’s role in the rotation, he is a must-have in every lineup. Charlotte doesn’t have a good defense, and the Timberwolves don’t have a good team. If Nowell is any good himself, this is his moment to prove it.
Luguentz Dort: I’ve played Dort at much higher price points. As hit or miss Dort can be on the court, I think 4k is way too low for his role and season-long average.
Zach LaVine: LaVine is playing so well that people feel the need to say that he is worse than Jordan. I feel like that is the biggest compliment that you can receive as a player. I didn’t feel as if anyone needed to tell me that LaVine is worse than Micheal Jordan. Players also tend to have big games against the Pelicans.
J.J Reddick: Two former Timberwolves in a row, although I lament the trading of LaVine quite a bit more than Reddick. Reddick is old, and his role is limited, but he can shoot. If LaVine is crushing the Pelicans then Reddick will come off the bench and try to shoot them back into the game.
Danny Green: He was just the best player left with my remaining salary. I don’t like the matchup against the Jazz. I would say that Green is 60-65% to pay back his price point, and I’m just looking for “scrubs” to keep the lineup afloat while the high-priced guys ball out.
Zion Williamson: This is a stack that I feel really good about. I think three players is the highest that you should stack in your lineup. Four players too often steal each other’s production. Zion and Reddick should be on the court at different times, making it a very appealing stack.
Draymond Green: Doesn’t score points, still scores a ton of FanDuel points. That makes him consistent and raises his ceiling.
Rudy Gobert: Gobert is only this cheap because he’s facing off against Embiid. He should still score in 40 FanDuel point range. There are a ton of Centers today though, so this is the toughest part to get right. That’s why I started the next lineup with Embiid.
