We have a seven-game main slate on this beautiful Sunday evening, October 30th over on DraftKings and FanDuel. For a smaller slate, we still have a lot of star power including Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic, Jayson Tatum, and Stephen Curry. We have some injuries to monitor with the Lakers including LeBron James and Anthony Davis who are both questionable.

PGLuka DončićDEN @ LAL Sun 9:30122000120000

Luka Doncic is the top-priced point guard, but I don't believe he is the play here. This is the second night of a back-to-back for the Mavericks. Doncic also played 40 minutes last night, which was his second highest this season. It also isn't a great matchup for him either, Orlando has the 12th best defensive efficiency in the NBA. I think there are better plays tonight at point guard position, but it is Doncic, and if you fade him, it might kill your lineup tonight.

Game Type: GPP
PGStephen CurryGSW @ DET Sun 6:00980051.4990048.6

If you are looking to pay up for point guard tonight, I love Stephen Curry against Detroit. The Pistons defense has been abysmal this season. They have the worst defensive rating in the NBA and have allowed the 8th highest opponent 3pt%. The Warriors haven't quite got going this season, and this should be their get right game. Curry could go bananas tonight and that's where I'm looking.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PGCade CunninghamGSW @ DET Sun 6:00810039.3800038.1

If you want to play Cade tonight, you are going to have to up, as his price is the highest it's been at $8,100. DK has to keep raising his price with how good he has been to start the season. Cunningham has scored at least 27 FP in all of his games this season and is 24th in usage rate at almost 30%. Cade is a very safe play tonight as there should be a lot of points scored in that game tonight.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PGMonté MorrisHOU @ PHX Sun 9:005400049000

Monte Morris is a great play over on FanDuel today being priced under $5,000 today. For the second straight game, the Wizards are without backup point guard Delon Wright. Thats huge because there were two games with Wright playing in which he played more minutes than Morris. With Wright out last game Morris scored 27 FP in 31 minutes. I will have Morris in most of my lineups over on FanDuel today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PGRJ Hampton4900050000

With Morris being a solid value play over on FanDuel, I like Hampton over on DraftKings being priced at $4,900. Last game he didn't start like we thought he would with Cole Anthony, Jalen Suggs, and Markelle Fultz being out with injuries. But instead, the Magic went with point guard Paolo instead. Hampton Still played 25 minutes which you like to see, he just did not shoot well, going 2-7 from the field but finishing with 23.5 FP. We know Hampton can score, and if he does today, he will be a great play. 

Game Type: CASH
SGDonovan MitchellNYK @ CLE Sun 6:00880051.3930049

Mitchell is a solid play once again today with Darius Garland being injured. Mitchell has taken over lead ball handler duties. Mitchell has the 14th highest usage rate in the NBA at 32%. He has also played over 40 minutes two out of his last three games there which you love to see. 

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SGDevin BookerHOU @ PHX Sun 9:00860050.1890048.5

Devin Booker is coming off his worst statistical game of the season. He only scored 16 points and had five turnovers and only has 25 FP. That was the first game all season that he scored under 45 FP. I expect him to bounce back against a bad defensive team in Houston today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SGAnthony EdwardsMIN @ SAS Sun 7:00790043770041.2

If you need to take a price drop at this position but still want a high ceiling, Anthony Edwards is your man. I love his price on both sites being below $8,000. Here's a guy whose ceiling on any given night is 60 FP, and he has a high floor as well, scoring under 39 FP just once this season. Edwards is also getting a ton of volume up as well getting at least 15 shots in each of his games. Edwards is a solid play in all formats today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SGJalen GreenHOU @ PHX Sun 9:00670034.4640032.6

Jalen Green is coming off of his worst game of the season shooting 4-19 from the field but finished with 24 FP. To me that is his floor, with the volume that he has gotten so far this season. Green is not shy as he has gotten up at least 16 shots in all of his games this season. Houston plays the 5th fastest pace in the NBA and we know that will not change. Eric Gordon is also out tonight, which could mean more volume for green.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SGMarcus SmartWAS @ BOS Sun 6:00550027.3560027.1

If you are looking to pay down at the shooting guard position Smart is your guy, especially in GPP's. He is just so solid and does all the little things. Smart is averaging 10/6/3 which gives a solid floor to start. He has also played at least 33 minutes in all of his games this season. Smart is a solid play today.

Game Type: GPP
SFLeBron JamesDEN @ LAL Sun 9:301070048.71040047.5

If you want to get Lebron in your lineups, it's going to cost you a pretty penny. Just does everything for this Lakers team like he has his for his teams his whole career. James is averaging 25/9/7 and a whopping 52 FP per game. The Lakers are desperate for a win today as they currently sit at 0-5. The Lakers might need Lebron to go absolutely off to get a win, and he just might do that today. Fade at your own risk.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SFJayson TatumWAS @ BOS Sun 6:00970048.31050046.7

If you are playing on DK today, I would play Jayson Tatum over Lebron James. He is a $1,000 cheaper and he gives you the same production of 52 FP per game. He has also scored at least 45 FP in every game this season. Washington is a tougher matchup for Tatum as they have the 10th best defensive efficiency in the NBA. Thats not good enough to scare me off Tatum, however. 

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SFFranz WagnerORL @ DAL Sun 7:30700028.3660027.7

We talked about all the injuries in the backcourt for Orlando above when we went over Hampton. It was a weird game for Franz Wagner in his last one only getting up eight shots and playing a season-low in minutes with just 23. The Magic ended up blowing out the Pistons, so Wagner didn't really need to comeback. Expect a bounce back from Franz in this one, and don't be afraid to get him in your lineup.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SFMichael PorterDEN @ LAL Sun 9:30600031630029

Man, it is great to see Michael Porter back on the court healthy. He has quietly been really good averaging 18/7. The man is just a walking bucket when he is healthy. Porter also is coming off a game in which he played 30 minutes for the second time all season, so he is starting to ramp it up. I'm also not sure the Laker really have a matchup for Porter on the defensive end. Look for Porter to feast today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
SFTroy BrownGSW @ DET Sun 6:003900039000

I'll give you a dart-throw in today's playbook with Troy Brown. Brown is a big part of this Lakers wing rotation playing 32 minutes in his last game. He scored 12 points and had eight rebounds for 22 FP. If he cuts down his four turnovers he had, he would have had a great night. I am happy getting Brown in my lineup at $3,900 today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PFPaolo BancheroORL @ DAL Sun 7:30800046.1850045.6

Point Guard Paolo was a lot of fun to watch on Friday night against the Pistons. Banchero finished that game with 21/12/7 in just 27 minutes on the court. Orlando will not be blowing Dallas out so expect those minutes to creep back up over 30. Paolo is so fun to watch and expect him to handle the ball in this one a ton once again. I am play Paolo everywhere once again tonight.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PFKeldon JohnsonMIN @ SAS Sun 7:00730038.8750037.2

Keldon Johnson has been awesome to start the season for the Spurs as their number one scoring option. Johnson has scored at least 18 points in every game this season and has taken a giant step forward. Johnson has also gotten up double-digit three pointer in his last two games, you love to see that. I expect Johnson to continue his success in this one against Minnesota.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
CEvan MobleyNYK @ CLE Sun 6:00620031.1640031.9

We finally saw the ceiling game from Evan Mobley that we have been begging for last game. He had been solid all season-long, but he finally blew up and scored 40 FP in his last game in 42 minutes played. He finished that game with 19/10/3/2 just filling up the stat sheet. I am ok getting Mobley in your lineups, especially if he draws the Julius Randle matchup.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PFBojan Bogdanović5900060000

Bojan Bogdanovic has been a pleasant surprise for the Piston this season. He is currently leading this Pistons team in scoring averaging 23 points per game. The sharpshooter is just shooting the lights out right now shooting 51% from the field and scored over 30 FP in his last three games. He won't stay that hot forever. But let's ride it as long as we can.  

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PFKyle Kuzma6700073000

Kyle Kuzma has been quietly good for this Washington Wizards team. He is their second leading scorer behind Bradley Beal with 20 points per game. It's not a great matchup for Kuzma in this one with all the wings that Boston can throw at him, but I still expect him to get his. He has scored at least 34 FP in all but one game this season. He is not a bad play today by any means.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
CNikola JokićDEN @ LAL Sun 9:301100055.51130053.2

Nikola Jokic is my top play today in all formats. The Lakers are a disaster so far this season, there is no denying that. But they are absolutely desperate for a win, and I believe they will keep this game close. Which fantastic news for Jokic and his fantasy production. Jokic has the highest ceiling on the slate today as he has scored over 60 FP twice already this season. Put Jokic in your lineups today.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
PFKarl-Anthony TownsNYK @ CLE Sun 6:008500084000

KAT has been awesome for his fantasy managers over his last three games scoring at least 42 FP. The Timberwolves have started running the offense through him more from the high post and it is showing with him averaging 5.5 assists per game and seven in his last two games. The Spurs defense is awful, and they do not have someone outside of Jakob Poeltl, they do not have an answer for KAT. I would assume Poeltl will be matched up on Gobert, so wheels up for KAT tonight.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
CDraymond GreenGSW @ DET Sun 6:00580031.7570032

This Warriors team has struggled to get it going this year and are coming off a game in which they lost to a bad Charlette team. Draymond had a good game however, finishing with 12/8/6 and played a season-high in minutes with 35. I think we see the Warriors have a bounce back game against a bad defensive Pistons team. Look for Draymond to kill them in transition tonight.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
CAlperen ŞengünHOU @ PHX Sun 9:00550029.6610029.8

We finally saw Sengun get a start for this Rockets team, and he had a solid game. He finished with 14/11/3 blocks in 26 minutes. If Sengun could stay out a foul trouble, he would be a great play night in and night out at center. I expect Sengun to get the start once again tonight, and the Suns are without Ayton. I like Sengun in that matchup agianst the Suns.

Game Type: CASH & GPP
CJock LandaleHOU @ PHX Sun 9:00460019.3450018.9

This is most likely going to be a very chalky play tonight with DeAndre Ayton being out. We have seen Landale produce when given the opportunity. a few games ago against the Warriors he played 22 minutes and scored 17 points and corralled in seven rebounds for 29 FP. Landale is a good play in all formats tonight against a bad Houston defense.

Last game he didn't start like we thought he would with Cole Anthony, Jalen Suggs, and Markelle Fultz being out with injuries. But instead, the Magic went with point guard Paolo instead. Hampton Still played 25 minutes which you like to see, he just did not shoot well, going 2-7 from the field but finishing with 23.5 FP.
