Anfernee Simons’ high-percentage shooting makes him an appealing player for Wednesday’s matchup against the Spurs. We have our usual robust Wednesday night slate on tap, as 10 games are on the docket. There are several advantageous positional matchups to exploit and a good trio of candidates that may be best to steer clear of due to a combination of circumstances/salary.  Guards Terry Rozier, CHA vs. DET ($33): Rozier continues to be a linchpin for the Hornets amid many injuries, and… Source link

Terry Rozier and the Charlotte Hornets host the Detroit Pistons in one of the first matchups of the night at 7 p.m. ET. There will be no shortage of action across the NBA, with 10 games on the schedule Wednesday. One team to keep an eye out for is the Warriors, who will be playing the second game of a back-to-back set when they face the Pacers in Indiana. Given how they previously handled back-to-back sets, we could see multiple starters sit out. The Kings will also be playing for the second… Source link

By no means is Wednesday a busy night for the NHL. There are three games taking place, and for whatever reason two of them are Canadian-on-Canadian matchups. Even so, the DFS opportunities are there. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your lineups. GOALIE Cam Talbot, OTT vs. MON ($29): In his last start, Talbot got the benefit of hosting the Ducks. He did his job, posting a shutout. This matchup is only slightly trickier. The Canadiens have averaged 2.86 goals and 29.3 shots on… Source link

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks host Steph Curry and the Warriors tonight. There will be no shortage of star power for Tuesday’s five-game slate in the NBA. The highlight matchup of the evening is Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks hosting Stephen Curry and the Warriors. An underrated matchup could take place in Philadelphia when the 76ers play the Kings, who are off to a 14-11 start. Let’s highlight some of the top players to consider on Yahoo, as well as a few to possibly… Source link

Barner expects Jimmy Butler to have a strong night on Monday as the Heat travel to Indiana to face the Pacers. The NBA starts off the week with seven games on the schedule Monday. Luka Doncic (quadriceps), who did not play Saturday against the Bulls, is expected to return for a matchup against the Thunder. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving sat out for rest against the Pacers on Saturday, but both are expected to be back in action for a battle with the Wizards. As far as exciting matchups… Source link

We’re solidly into this NHL season, with some teams having even hit the 30-game mark at this point. Things have started to come together, in ways surprising (Tage Thompson) and expected (Connor McDavid). This Monday, we’ve got six games on the slate. Here are the players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Cam Talbot, OTT vs. ANA ($29): Talbot’s overall numbers (2.77 GAA, .909 save percentage) aren’t good, but he’s mostly been solid and had three brutal outings, which over… Source link

Yahoo does not fear a Sunday matinee. The main slate of contests features all six games on the docket, even though that means a 3 p.m. EST start. Hopefully you can get your lineups in by then. Here are my recommendations. GOALIE Carter Hart, PHI at ARI ($25): Maybe this will go down as getting too cute, but I want to take a shot on Hart at this salary. He struggled following a hot start, but has compiled a 2.31 GAA and .923 save percentage from his last three outings. It’s only three starts,… Source link

Pascal Siakam and the Toronto Raptors are in Orlando to play the Magic Friday night. Buckle up for a packed Friday in the NBA consisting of 10 games. The Hawks will take on the Nets with Dejounte Murray (ankle) and John Collins (ankle) out while De’Andre Hunter (hip) is listed as questionable. The Pelicans will be without Brandon Ingram (toe) and Herbert Jones (ankle) when they face the Suns, who just got Chris Paul back from injury. Another marquee matchup will feature Luka… Source link

We’re heading into the weekend with 10 NHL games Friday. That’s a lot of options for your DFS squads. Of course, more options doesn’t mean more choices, so you have more name to pare down until you’ve put your roster together. With that in mind, here are the players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Logan Thompson, VGK vs. PHI ($36): Thompson has had a few tough starts recently, but he still has a 2.68 GAA and .918 save percentage. The Golden Knights should give the rookie… Source link

Bam Adebayo and the Miami Heat square off with the LA Clippers Thursday night. The NBA brings a limited slate consisting of just three games Thursday. The night will tip off with the Heat playing the Clippers, who will be on the second leg of a back-to-back set. Two bad teams from Texas will then face off when the Spurs host the Rockets. Finally, the night will conclude with Damian Lillard and the Trail Blazers hosting Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets. Let’s break down some players to… Source link
