TUESDAY NIGHT DRAFTKINGS TOP NBA PICKS

Kevin Love- PF Cleveland $10,200

Love is coming off a huge game against the Kings where he sat most of the 4^th quarter because The Cavs were getting smoked.  Love really thrives and he's stepped up since Lebron has been out.  James MIGHT return tonight, which could hurt Love’s numbers.  IF Lebron doesn’t suit up, I think Love is a must play.  Love DESTROYED Memphis last time they met this season with this monster: 36 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals.    That’s just about 70 points, he has played Memphis 13 times in his career and is averaging a double-double plus against them.  Hes expensive, but 50-60 points might be in his future tonight.

Michael Carter- Williams – PG Philly $8,500

Carter- Williams can get you 30 points, or he can get you 60, he is the definition of “risky”.  He faces off against Jeff Teague tonight who is Swiss cheese with sneakers.  Last game, Carter-Williams nearly Triple-Doubled, and I expect a similar line tonight.  Other than Kyrie Irving, I think Williams is the second best PG option tonight.  I think Irving and Williams will have similar point totals, but I’ll take the discount.

Draymond Green- SF Warriors $8,300

I’ve heard a lot today on fantasy radio how green is a bad play tonight.  I disagree.  Green plays 30 minutes every game, and fills the stat sheets with 5 categories.  He gets a banged-up-limping Favors tonight, or his Kanter or Gobert, regardless, he can defend these guys and produce some serious points.  I’ll go against the grain, and pay for Green.

Mo Williams- PG T-Wolves $5400

He is my go to guy since Lavine lost his starting job.  Williams is SOLID in fantasy, he always gets just enough points and rebounds to earn his price.  He gets The Pacers tonight who have been struggling against opposing PG’s the past week.  When these two teams met earlier this season, Mo-Mo put up 42 Draftking’s points.

DeMarre Carroll- SF Atlanta $5,200

Carroll OWNED Philly earlier this season, and he’s been really consistent the past week or so with his fantasy production.  I don’t LOVE stacking The Hawks tonight against The 76ers, if it’s a blowout, there might be some serious bench out on the floor in the 4^th.  If Carroll plays 25 minutes, he will score 30 points, that’s what I’m shooting for.  If he can play 30 plus, he could be in for a big night for 5200.  (It’s interesting to note that Jeff Teague does NOT play Philly well)

Wesley Johnson- SF Lakers $4,000

I’m flip flopping between Wes and Solomon Hill for this price.  Both should put up 20-30 points tonight, but with The T-Wolves banged up, I’m not sure where the big scorers will be (David West is my best guess).  I don’t think Hill is a bad play at all, I just think Wesley Johnson has the ability to put up a 35 tonight, and Hill does not.  The Lakers will score points, but I can’t see where its coming from other than the man who plays against Loul Deng.  Wade, Bosh, Anderson-Whiteside, and even Norris Cole are decent defenders, I think Loul is the weak point.  This is the type of player who can put you from 25^th place to 1^st place if things fall into place.
