First day analysis

Raptors, raptors, raptors. The raptors are facing off with the Magic tonight in Toronto, and while the Magic are hot, the fact that the Raptors are only favored by 3 in this game seems kinda ridiculous to me. This line gives way too much respect to a Magic team that has a 3 game winning streak against the Wizards (bad), Spurs (struggling) and Sixers (without Embiid). I don’t buy it, Raptors are my pick tonight. That’s really the only NBA game I love tonight.

In terms of DFS, I like the Nets backcourt tonight without Kyrie and Levert playing. Dinwiddie has been hot and Garrett Temple is gonna get a lot of PT. I also like Alec Burks at a guard spot, he has been the primary source of offense for a bad Warriors team and is still cheap. I like Danuel House at the forward spot, he was consistently a $5000+ price on DK before his injury and played great in his return, his price will be much higher soon. I would also target Lauri Markkanen today, he’s way too cheap for how good of a player he is, and the Pistons defense is weak. At the center spot, I would invest in Pascal Siakam, I see him having a huge game against the Magic.

My optimal lineup today:

PG Dinwiddie

SG Burks

SF House

PF Markannen

C Siakam

G Temple

F Bertans

UTIL Trae Young
