My team Gancedato had a good start of the playoffs, scoring 176.05 in Round 1, but not so good in Game 2. A lot has happened, and the best is yet to come! Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv and Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul each recorded a road victory, stealing the home-court advantage from AS Monaco and Olympiacos Piraeus, respectively. Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade became just the second team since the playoffs came back in 2005 to record back-to-back road wins at the start of a series. What an outstanding start of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Playoffs! Only one team, FC Barcelona, managed to win both games at home. In Game 4, he hit three three-point shots for the first time in the series.Ī George-Brooks combination should allow you to still pick two of the top five point guards and Valanciunas to provide a ton of quality to your Wednesday lineup.įollow Joe on Twitter, obtained from Basketball Reference.See also: Fantasy tips, Game 3: No more tricks He could even eclipse the 30-point mark if he is more efficient from three-point range. With Dallas expected to be much closer to the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 5 than it was in Game 4, George should score at a high volume.
#Wednesday basketball fantasy series#
The 31-year-old produced his series high of 29 points in Game 3 and earned 20 points in the Game 4 blowout victory. George could be the best partner of the three since he has over 35 FanDuel fantasy points in three games against Dallas and comes at $500 less than Beal. If you roster Brooks and end up with one or two value plays elsewhere, you can combine him with one of Paul George, Bradley Beal or Donovan Mitchell. Those averages and his $6,800 salary will make him hard to ignore. The Memphis guard is averaging 25.5 points per game and shooting 51.9 percent from the field. The 25-year-old has the fourth-highest salary at shooting guard and could easily be one of the top two point earners at the position. In Game 4, the two were separated by 0.2 FanDuel fantasy points, and if they remain close in that category in Game 5, it's worth saving some salary by starting Valanciunas with a handful of stars at both guard positions.ĭillon Brooks might be a must-start DFS player on Wednesday because of his $6,800 salary. He had 18 points in Game 2, the one contest in which he did not record a double-double.Īlthough Gobert carries a slight edge in points and rebounds per game, Valanciunas is worth the play because he hasn't been completely outplayed by the Utah center. The 29-year-old had had over 30 FanDuel fantasy points in all four games, and he produced three double-doubles against Utah. If Embiid does not play, Jonas Valanciunas, Rudy Gobert and Clint Capela are your three options at center.Įven though Dwight Howard should start for Philadelphia, it seems unlikely he will turn in a massive scoring performance with Harris and Simmons around him.Īt $7,700, Valanciunas has the lowest salary and could end up as the best play because of how much he receives the ball on the post. With that in mind, Harris should be the top choice from Philadelphia's roster, and potentially the entire game, due to his scoring prowess and salary. When Embiid left Game 4, Washington attempted to smother the perimeter, and if does that again to Seth Curry and Danny Green, Harris could be left with a few more looks from three.Įven with Embiid in the lineup, Harris has the team's best scoring average in the series with 24.3 points per game. Simmons will only run at Washington's big men.
Harris has no fear pulling up from three-point range and attacking the basket.
Harris is also a better choice than Simmons because of his shooting ability. The options beneath Harris at power forward are a bit limited since Kristaps Porzingis and John Collins have not been top scorers in all four games of their respective series. There are also more value plays at point guard beneath Simmons, like Ja Morant, Mike Conley, Derrick Rose and Jordan Clarkson. The former is the better choice for a handful of reasons, starting with the fact that he is $300 cheaper in salary than the latter. If you still like Philadelphia's matchup with Washington, Harris or Simmons should find their way into your lineup.
