The Daily Fantasy Basketball Playbook had a rough night yesterday as the Hornets got blown out and the Pistons front court crapped the bed. Have a good feel for tonight's games, but there are only four games in the NBA tonight. Therefore, there's going to be a lot of overlap of players, so make sure to get some studs in your lineup.
The point guard is looking might fine tonight as the top player don't cost a lot. While I do think Reggie Jackson has another big game, his price tag is extremely high. I love Tyreke Evans tonight (pretty sure the pictures gave that one away) because he crushed his former team last season. Also, the shooting guard position has a couple of really good value plays. The small forward is top heavy with some high priced players at the top, but it really thins out after that. Anthony Davis is the best player on the board. Meanwhile, the rest of the power forward position is filled with boom or bust type of players. Going cheap at center tonight because all of the higher priced players are going to struggled to reach their value. Time to grind!
