Brooklyn at Atlanta

With the series all tied up at two games apiece, this game should be a very intense contest.

Deron Williams ($6,300) will be a very popular choice coming off of a huge 60.25 fantasy point night but buyer beware as the he was unable to top 30 fantasy points in the first three games.

Joe Johnson ($7,500) continued his streak of 30 plus fantasy point games in their last outing and should be as steady of an option as there is on this slate.

Jarrett Jack ($5,200) and Bojan Bogdanovic ($4,900) remain solid value plays with decent upside. For Atlanta their balanced attack has made pinpointing who to target each night.

Jeff Teague ($7,000) had his first double-double of the post season last time out with 16 points and 11 assists in a series high 39 minutes. With this being a near must win expect Teague to see far more minutes than backup Dennis Schroder ($3,600).

Up front the duo of Paul Millsap ($8,100) and Al Horford ($7,400) are cash game options but do not offer the upside some others on this slate have. Although this game is likely going to be the higher scoring of the two contest tonight, the depth of both teams make it a bit difficult to predict the top players but Joe Johnson and Jeff Teague seem like the best options for their respective prices.
 

Portland at Memphis

With injuries having hit both teams hard these teams have essentially had to both play with seven man rotations. That is great for DFS purposes as it is a near certainty that we know who will be playing the minutes and thus racking up the fantasy points.

Damian Lillard ($8,000) finally broke out and posted 46.5 fantasy points, however it is C.J. McCollum ($4,800) who has been the revelation of the series. He is coming off of back to back 30 plus fantasy point outings while playing an average of 31 minutes per night.

Up front Meyers Leonard ($3,600) came out of nowhere with a 35 minute and 37.25 fantasy night which should drive his ownership up tonight. Like Deron Williams, buyer beware as the first three games saw Leonard log a combined 39 minutes so last game could have been an aberration.

For Memphis the point guard duo of Nick Calathes ($3,100) and Beno Udrih ($3,800) both put up good games for their price and both remain in play tonight with no Mike Conley.

With four games over 39 fantasy points in four outings, Marc Gasol ($8,600) is a great play tonight as no one on Portland can slow him down. With the numerous value plays in this one it may be a night to go with a stars and scrubs lineup to try to win your GPP’s.
