Welcome to the daily updates and injury news article. We'll try and update it right up to line-up locks with as much information as comes across our desks. Let's get to it!
Last night's picks can be found here, so you can wrap your mind around what you need to be looking at before lineups lock tonight.
By the way - we keep our projection system updated with all of the changes as they occur throughout the day right up until lineup lock. Every day. If you want access to that system so you can cut out a lot of the research element, click the button below!
This comes as a bit of a surprise here, though the Clippers are on a pretty tough 2nd half of a B2B. With both DeAndre and Griffin sitting, there are a few ways to look. Mo Speights is the only big man I have interest in and I would expect him to play around 25-30 minutes. Redick and Paul should also see a bunch more shots and will be needed to win this game.
These guys have both been hurt all season, so this is no surprise to see them out here. With Mike Miller being the only other SF on the active roster, the minutes will have to come from elsewhere. Will Barton and Juancho Hernangomez are the guys who get the biggest bump for me. Both are terrific plays in both cash games and tournaments. Jamal Murray could also get some run at the 2 if they go small and he can always get hot. Jokic is always great. You just have to weigh out his price.
POrzingis found a way to get hurt again so it looks like he will miss at least 1 more game this season. Luckily, it's against the Nets, so we should be able to take advantage. Hernangomez is one of the top options n the slate and we will get to him later. Kyle O'Quinn and Lance Thomas could also pick up a few minutes but I don't have any interest outside of tournaments. Update: Kristaps is out
CP3 is a guy who will need to step up in a huge way tonight. With DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin being ruled out, you can expect Paul to put the load on his shoulders and have a huge night. The Nuggets won't be able to do much to stop him, considering they are one of the absolute worst teams in the league against PG's. The Nuggets like to play fast and loose which plays right into the hands of Paul. He is a lock for 45 fantasy points and has the upside for a lot more. He has shown the ability to hit 60 or 70 a few times last season.
Hernangomez and the Knicks will face off with the Nets in what figures to be a pretty close game. With Kristaps Porzingis presumed out, Hernangomez makes for a tremendous play. he should get at least 28 minutes here and has been a guy who has produced a ton when on the court. He will dominate down low against the Nets, who offer up no plus rebounders or defenders at center. Hernangomez is a lock for a double-double with the upside for 40 fantasy points if he gets the minutes.
