NBA DFS Process | DraftKings & FanDuel Picks, Plays & Slate Breakdown | Saturday, 11/08/25 · Daily Fantasy Sports by Ship It Nation

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: All systems going clear, we lift them.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: What is happening ship at Nation? It is your boy,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: M Bellman, ninety sixty seven. It is not even ten
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: thirty am Eastern yet, but I am here to break
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: down the Saturday, November eighth, six game NBA slate on DraftKings.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: A bunch of teams on back to backs, a bunch
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: of teams haven't even submitted their injury reports. We're gonna
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: have to this one by ear a little bit, but
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: we got six games to break down, so let's get
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: after it. Hopefully the video looks a little bit more
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: aesthetically pleasing than last week. Worked on it with my
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: guy Jeremy a little bit before the show, so hopefully
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: it has paid off and we are ready to roll.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: So let me share this screen and we'll be on
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: our way. First game, we got a battle of two
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: teams who simply put aren't very good, Dallas at Washington.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I think you expected, at least I expected Dallas to
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: be a little bit better this year than they showed
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: last year after the Luca trade. Just adding pieces, you know,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: obviously getting the number one pick in Cooper Flag, a
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: little more continuity, et cetera. But that has not been
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the case, coming off just an awful loss last night
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: at the hand of Memphis, who is another team that
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: doesn't seem to be on the same page, and they
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: just rolled Dallas last night. So now Dallas comes into Washington,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: they are four and a half point favorites. It's gonna
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: be a tough to find a team that's not favored
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: against the Wizards, even Dallas on the road four and
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: a half point favorites. Unlikely to see Anthony Davis here,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: He's going to still be out. Daniel Gafford left last
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: night's game early. I would be surprised if he played again.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Dallas has not released their injury report yet, so not sure,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: but I would be surprised if he plays. Ownership it's
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: still too early for that, so we don't even have
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: that yet. But let's break this down as best as
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: we can, starting with the Dallas side. Price tags are
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: up with ad being out, and these guys just haven't
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: been that good, so you're going to see some value
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: open up presuming Gafford is out. I think lusa's SISA
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: at thirty nine hundred on DK is going to project
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: pretty well. Fourteen minutes last night, he put up twenty
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: one DK points, so again likely to get better value
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: as the day goes on, but starting potential center at
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: thirty nine hundred. We'll see what they do with their
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: starting lineup, but if Gafford's out, wouldn't be surprised if
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: they If they roll Cisa in there, matchup with Sar
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: again we'll see, though not like Washington as some huge team,
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: maybe what maybe Dallas decides to play at small After that,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you're looking at the usual suspects here. Dilo has been very,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: very disappointing projecting for under thirty at his sixty six
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: hundred dollars price tag, gonna be tough for me to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: want to prioritize him. Cooper Flag basically the same story there. PJ. Washington,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: you know projects the best, he's also the most expensive.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: He'd probably be my favorite piece outside of se Say,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: if Gafford's in, I don't necessarily trust it, but at
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: this price point in this matchup, you would have to
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: be in play if nothing else. All in all kind
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: of want to like Dallas more than I actually do,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: just a struggling team. I could see them getting right
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: in this spot, but price tags are up as of
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: right now, I don't think there's any like priorities on
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: the Dallas side. I think the Washington side looks better.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Keyshawn George missed last night, so did Kola BALI. We
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: have to wait and see on those guys. I don't
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: really have an inclination whether they play or not. If
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: everyone's in here, I think the two guys that look
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: the three guys that look best to me are gonna
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: be CJ McCollum, which feels ugly, don't love it, but
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: in what should be a competitive game coming off a
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: really good game last night, you know, again what the
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: wait and see with what Washington does with their injured
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: guys with their vets like CJ McCollum, and looks like
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Chris Middleton is already out. But what the wait and
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: see what Washington ends up doing. Just like most of
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the other teams on this slate, you know, McCollum's fifty
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: five price tag projects decent as a high ceiling there.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Trey Johnson projects well right now, and what to wait
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: and see with injuries If you get any of these
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: guys out, Trey Johnson at forty three hundred is going
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: to look like you know he already looks really, really good.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: So Trey Johnson, the guy I'm really high on, rookie
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: out of Texas, was a freshman last year, so one
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: and done, was an elite offensive player in college season.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: It's kind of picked up where he left off, still
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: acclimating to the assimilating to the NBA game, I should say,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: got the got his first start last night after a
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: zero first run. He ended up pretty good. So I
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: think you can go right back to Trey Johnson. Bob
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Carrington will look good if guys are out. You know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: George and Kolibaldi themselves don't look particularly good. But if
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: those guys are out, or if one of those guys
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: is out, I think you can start to look at
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: even more pieces of Washington. This is a very winnable
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: game from the Wizards or for the Wizards, and there
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: could potentially be a lot to like here. You know,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: as of right now, I think Trey Johnson would be
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: my favorite piece, and only room for that to grow,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: all right. Next up, another good game from df from
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: a DFS perspective, we have Toronto at Philly. Philly is
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: a five and a half point favorite. Toronto is another
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: team that played last night, so again, a bunch of
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: back to backs here, something to watch out for. We
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: see if Toronto has released their injury report. Toronto has not,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: so Philly has, but Toronto has not, so again we'll
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: have to wait and see there. You know, as we've
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: seen the Toronto this year kind of muddy waters and
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: that they've got a bunch of guys who all project
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: similarly similarly, but we've also seen two games ago a
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: bunch of these guys just go nuts. This is another
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: good spot for the Raptors. So I think you're can
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: look at a bunch of these guys quickly sixty two hundred.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: He's not playing massive minutes, we only project him for
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: about twenty eight, but projecting for thirty three and a
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: half fantasy points at sixty two hundred, we know he's
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: got a high ceiling. RJ. Barrett projecting really really well.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: I think Barrett, Ingram, and Barnes are all guys that
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: you know. I'm not going to say they all are
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: priorities on this slate, but I think I want some
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Toronto here, and those three are going to be my favorite,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: with Quickly not that far behind. I've been on Ingram
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: a bunch recently. Price tags up a little bit at
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: seventy seven hundred projects good in this spot, but you know,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I think it Barrett looks a little bit better at
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: a cheaper tag. Scottie Barnes doesn't project, you know, quite
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: as well from points per dollar perspective as the other two,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: but his ceiling is always the highest, given his ability
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: to just fill up the stat sheet from every angle.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: So I like Toronto here. I think you can look
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: at a bunch of these pieces. Again, what to wait
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: and see injuries from the Raptor side, if they're sitting
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: anyone out, just you know, as far as the entire
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: slate goes, you know, what to wait and see what
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: other teams do, because if there's more value that opens up,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: maybe it gets you off more Toronto. But again, just
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: a wait and see approach as of right now. I
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: like Ingram, I like Barnes, I like Barrett a lot,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: and I like Quickly. So all four of those guys
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I think wildly.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: In play.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: From the Philly side, Tyrese Maxi price is up, you know,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: over ten k. He plays massive minutes though, you know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: averaging over forty per night, and he's I just don't
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: think projection systems have caught up to his production this season,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: so he's not going to project amazing for that price tag,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: but we know he's got a high ceiling and what
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: should be a competitive game. I like him here VJ.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Edgecomb projecting well in this spot seventy three hundred, projecting
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: for over thirty five Fantasy points. I think maybe it
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: might be time to go back to Edgecomb after he
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: got a really high price increase, and you know, he
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: was like forty eight hundred to start the season, was
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: an auto locked for the first couple slates. Now has
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: it has been a little bit difficult to get to.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: I think maybe he's trending towards more rosterable at this point,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: So again have to wait and see. Embiid is back tonight,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and Bed himself looks pretty good projecting Embiid for thirty
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: minutes here, which again we'll have to wait and see
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: if he plays thirty minutes, that's kind of a high
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: end of his range in my opinion, But if he
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: gets anywhere close to that, I think at seventy six hundred,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: he should smash here, you know, projecting for forty almost
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: forty one DK point. It's fifty four DK point ceiling.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: A lot to like about this game in totality, that's
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: kind of the niche sure of this slate though, a
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: bunch of really good spots all over, So as of now,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's like one game in particular I
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: want to key in on, because I want exposure to
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: a bunch of these games, all right. Third, we've got
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: the Lakers and Atlanta. We haven't seen the Lakers on
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: a main slate in a minute, so of course we
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: get them on a kind of small subsidized Saturday slate,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: but we'll take it. No Bron obviously still dealing with sciatica,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: which I am just getting over myself, so trust me, Broun,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I feel your pain. There no Austin Reeves here. So
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: it's the Luca show. Luca eleven eight fair price tag,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: you know, coming off a Monster Monster game last time out,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: projects for pretty easily the highest amount of K points
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: of anyone on the slate, sixty one point six projection,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: you know, close to an eighty point ceiling. We we
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: know the deal with Luca. If you can get to him, great,
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: if there's enough value on this slate, he could easily
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: become just a auto lock in all formats, what to
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: wait and see. It's likely with the amount of teams
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: that are on back to backs tonight, that will get
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: some injury news that we're not expecting. I mean, so far,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: of the teams that we've seen, three of the four
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: are on a back to back. Played last night, Atlanta
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: played last night, Chicago played last night, Cleveland played last night,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Miami played last night. So yeah, a bunch of teams here.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: We're gonna have to wait and see when they do
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: release their injury report. But going back to the Lakers,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Marcus Smart projecting really well at fifty two hundred. This
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: is a good spot for the Lakers. He looks like
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: a priority play in all formats as of right now.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Fifty two hundred projecting for close to thirty high ceiling.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: I like him quite a bit. Jake Lauravia looks okay,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: really looks okay. DeAndre Aydon looks pretty good. Seventy six hundred.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: We know the deal with eight and we've read the
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: book on him too many times. High ceiling in any
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: given spot, but also a low floor depending on how
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: he's playing that given day. So I like him, and again,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: what should be a competitive game Lakers are three and
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: a half point favorites here. Good spot all around from
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: a DFS perspective. From the Atlanta side, I think the
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Lakers look better price tags up on Atlanta with Trey
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Young now being out for a few games. Jalen Johnson
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: is always going to be their top piece, but man
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: eighty nine hundred projecting for under forty Fantasy points under
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: thirty nine even like not going to be a priority
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: for me. Tough to prioritize him here. We know his
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: high ceiling. So in tournaments, if you're MALTI entering, I
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: wouldn't fade him, But not a guy if I we're
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: playing one lineup i'd be getting to. As of right now,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: naw na kill Alexander Walker. I think he's a fine
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: play cog of the machine type, and again, what should
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: be a competitive game. Price tags are up here, so
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: there's no one on Atlanta that I think is a
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: guy you have to play the closest. Then again, he's
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: far from our priority. Would be rechea set forty four
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: hundred in good form right now, you know, projects okay
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: to good with a high ceiling, you know, depending on
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: what injuries we get and who's sitting out from other teams.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: We just to say it to be a guy that
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at in tournaments at forty four hundred. Other
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: than that, I think just tournament plays guys that you
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: know could potentially spike in a good game environment. But
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: know what, I'm sitting here like this guy projects so well,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: we need to roster him, all right? Moving on another game,
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: both teams played last night, Bulls coming off off a
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: loss to Milwaukee Cavs coming off a route of Washington.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: What else is new? Starting with the Bulls Getty's price
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: tags up. I know we've been lower on his projection
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: than most other projection systems so far to start the year.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of with that, Like, I know, he's been awesome.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: He's also been really really popular every slate he's on.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I would expect the same tonight. How he's projecting, though,
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: at least for us, isn't amazing. You know, basically, four
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: three fantasy points in ninety five hundred, excuse me, is fine,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: but certainly not a guy I think you have to
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: roster by any means high ceiling, and we know he
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: can wreck any slate he's on. But as of right now,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: you know, I think you can play him. I also
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: don't think you have to play him, especially when we've
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: got a guy like Luke at eleven eight on this
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: slate after him on Chicago Acoro Revenge. I'm good Luch.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: We know he's got a high ceiling. If this game
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: is competitive, wouldn't be surprised at all if he is
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: a nice game. It's not the best spot for the Bulls,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: and their price tags are up though, so probably not
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: a team I'm going to be prioritizing. Cleveland's gonna be
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: tough to talk about. They played last night. They're dealing with,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: you know, guys in and out of their lineup basically
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: every game. Their eight and a half point favorites here
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they played last night. Mitchell's in good for him right now.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: He was talking after two games ago how he was
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: playing NBA two K and someone he was playing with
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: on the playground was just talking shit all game to
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: him about how he doesn't have any highlights anymore, where's
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: he been at, et cetera. So he had a monster
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: game two games ago and then came out last night
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: on fire again. So presuming he's in, especially with other
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: guys potentially out for Cleveland. I like Mitchell here nine
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: k projects for more Fantasy points than Giddy five hundred less,
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure he's gonna be I don't know about significantly,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: but he'll be lower owned. So I like Mitchell here mobiley.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I'm cool with his price tag's falling a little bit again.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: We'll have to wait and see if guys are in
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: or out for Cleveland. Jared Allen Monster game last night.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Price tag is pretty stabilized. Projects decent at sixty two hundred.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Lonzo Ball should be back tonight. I like the Cavs
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: in totality here, just a little bit difficult to know
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: what they're gonna do. Wouldn't be surprised if Garland's out
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: tonight after just coming back. DeAndre Hunter has been in
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and out, so Mitchell's been in and out a little bit.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Want to just wait and see on Cleveland. As of
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: right now, Mitchell's my favorite piece, you know, a little
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: bit tough to prioritize Cleveland now with with Darius back though.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: All right, moving on, that is the fourth game I
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: think we talked about. Yes, we got two more. We
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: got the Blazers heading east to Miami. Uh, the three
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: to Zho five taking on the Heat here, the Heat
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: without Bam out of Baio last night. I'm gonna presume
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: he's out again tonight. We don't have him projected. Norman Powell,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I see him with a If you look at DraftKings,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: he's got a Q tag. I know he got hurt
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: a little bit last night but ended up coming back in.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: They have yet to submit their injury report, so we'll
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: have to wait and see what's up with Norman Powell
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: and the rest of Miami in general. Just because another
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: team coming off of back to back Portland three and
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: a half point favorites here. They're coming off a really
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: nice win. Are the Blazers after beating okay See the
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: only team to beat okay See so far this year.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Was a great situational spot for Portland. But they got
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: the job done and they're playing good ball. They're in
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: a good spot here against the Heat team playing at
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: the fastest pace of any team in the league. You
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: got Shaden Sharp probable here. Price tags are fair, so
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: there's no guy here. I'm like, you got a roster,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: especially when you've got, you know, a guy like Jeremy
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Grant producing so heavily off the bench. But Drew Holliday
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: at seventy three hundred expensive, high ceiling, Shaden Sharp kind
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: of the same thing. Similar story with Kamara, their top
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: overall piece. Denny is probably in some senses he's the
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: easiest to get to because I think he, you know,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: clearly projects the best, and he might project the best
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: from a points per dour perspective. So it's really hard
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: to prioritize Denny at eighty five hundred on a slate
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: with Luca another expensive guys we want to roster. I
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: like the spot for Portland. I want some Portland exposure.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: As of right now, there's no one that I'm looking
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: at like we need the roster. Miami not as good
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: of a spot as Portland's in, but they're dealing with
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: a bunch of injuries. Obviously no Tyler hero Bam is
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: gonna be out, So I think this is another team
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: They're not in as good of a spot they were
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: last night against Charlotte, but at you know, not crazy
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: expensive price tags, although rising price tags. I do think
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: we want Miami exposure. Kell al Ware disappointed last night.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: He's still gonna project well. I think he can go
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: right back to him, you know. Six k now, you
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: know a little bit of a pricing prease, so I
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: don't think you have to play him, but he does
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: look pretty good here. Wiggins was okay, probably not prioritizing
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: him at sixty eight hundred, but I don't think he's
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: a bad play Pale Larsen fine with it, generally, not
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: looking to roster him unless he's like under four K
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: and he's not here. Norman Powell, if he's out, will
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: open up even more for Miami. If he's in, he
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't project great but clearly has an upside there. Davion
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Mitchell basically the same story. If I'm rostering Miami, I
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: think I want more than one of these guys, pairing
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: them together, you know, not even necessarily like a game stack,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: but just stacking Miami on the premise that they play well.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Again as of this show, though there is no one
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: on Miami, I think you have to roster or even
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: close to that. All right, last but not least, let
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: me just make sure that is the last game on
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: the slate. Uh, it is last but not least. We
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: have got the Pelicans and the spurs of a good
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: team against the bad team, So you know, take that
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: with a grain of salt certainly blowout potential in this spot.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: New Orleans is a ten and a half point underdog
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: in San Antonio. From the New Orleans side, we know
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: that Zion is out, so a lot is still open
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: up for the peals here. Price tags have risen, probably
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: not to where they ultimately we will, but they're close.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: You've got Trey Murphy at seventy four hundred. I think
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: New Orleans is in play here, but the rising price
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: tags makes it hard to like prioritize them. I think
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Looney's interesting. You know, certainly he let down as massive
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: chalk that first night he started. He's still under four K,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: and I would imagine that New Orleans just does everything
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: they can to throw whatever size they have at Wemby.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: I know teams are changing up their defensive strategy against
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Wemby a little bit, throwing smaller guys at him. I
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: think that Looney is one of the only guys they
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: have that can like maintain some sort of semblance inside
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: against Wemby, even though it's not gonna be much. Thirty
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: eight hundred projecting for close to twenty fantasy points never
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: going to be a sexy play, but I could see
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: playing Looney in this spot. Alvarado have been very impressed
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: with recently price tags up though forty three hundred now
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: projecting okay, twenty three fantasy points. You know, herb Jones
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: and Sadiq Bay basically the same price tag. I would
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: get to Bay over Jones projecting for a little bit
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: better and a little bit cheaper. Ownership will likely be
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: on Bay. But I think his game, you know, is
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: more DFS friendly anyways, And I don't love this spot
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: for the Pels. Certainly, Jeremiah Fears fifty four hundred, you
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: know again, boom bust. He's a rookie, another guy like
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Trey Johnson that came out after his freshman year, so
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: still young, still learning the ropes. You know, every game
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: is gonna be its own, its own entity for him.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: So certainly he's gonna have massive upside in spots and
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: he's gonna let down in spots. Just know that going
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: in if you decide to roster him. San Antonio looks
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: smirky here, dearon Fox back tonight, and they're coming off
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: of back to back, a nice win for them against
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: the Rockets, two good teams in the West. We don't
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: know exactly how much Fox is gonna play here, But
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: certainly what however much he does play, he's gonna eat
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: into basically everyone else. You know, he's good, This team
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: is obviously really good. They're missing Dylan Harper, so you
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: almost just slide Fox in for Harper. But certainly Fox
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: is a better NBA player right now than Harper, even
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: though Harper projects to be very, very good. So Fox
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: is gonna eat into a lot of these other guys. Now,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: maybe you get a spot where San Antonio's hype Fox
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: is coming back, they get a really really easy opponent
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: in New Orleans, and a lot of these guys just
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: go off. Wouldn't be surprised at all if we see
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: a situation like that where even though Fox is eating
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: into Castle on VISal and even Wemby a little bit,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: all these guys still get there tonight just because of
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: the opponent. But just notice know that for the future
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: that Fox is gonna be eating into these guys, and
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: unless we get some falling tags, it's gonna be hard
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: to prioritize the spurs. Wemby at twelve to four, I mean,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: you can't projection wise play him over Luca and then
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: he won lineup, But you know, projections is just that projection,
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: So it doesn't mean it's gonna turn out like that.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: The game still has to be played. I imagine Wemby
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: is significantly lower on than Luca. Maybe you do get
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: a competitive game year. Maybe New Orleans is game tonight.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: In a situation like that, Wemby's playing full run. Maybe
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Atlanta and the Lakers blows out a little bit. You know,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: I think that if you do play Wemby over Luca,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: you're getting a huge lag up on the field that
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: Wemby out scores them. But based on projections, it's it's
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: hard to get there. It's hard to get to anyone
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: on San Antonio right now. With Fox being back again,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: it's a great spot. So I don't hate any of
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: these guys, but there isn't one guy that right now.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: I'm like, you need to roster, which is kind of
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: a theme for the slate, a little bit difficult without
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: you know, injury reports or most teams injury reports being out.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: But there are some pretty clear plays, especially early. You know,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: the Dallas Washington game looks really good. The Washington side
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: I think looks really good. Obviously, Luca Toronto and Philly.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: So there's good plays scattered throughout the entire slate, you know,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: with a bunch of games that have the potential to
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: be competitive, and basically every game on this slate with
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: a high total and looking to be high scoring. So
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: that's what I got for you, guys. Hopefully you enjoyed
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: it again, Hopefully it was a little bit more aesthetically
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: pleasing for those of you watching out there. I'll be
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: around if you've got any questions. I appreciate all you
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: if you are a ship at member. The slate plan
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: and core plays will be out later. I hope everyone
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: has a great weekend and go Browns tomorrow.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Thanks then, Monst and the Desert
