Monday night has a great football game in store for us and
six solid NBA games to pick a fantasy team from. We like tomorrow’s games
better, but we feel confident with our team for Monday. We’re back on the work
grind, and there’s nothing better then researching for fantasy sports while at
work. Here is the lineup we’re working with Monday.
Damian Lillard went for a double double Saturday in two overtimes which would usually shy us away from picking him, but he had a day off. This allows him to get his legs back after all of those minutes and has a great matchup against Charlotte. He has gone for 27 or more fantasy points in nine of his last ten games. His price is very solid at 7k considering the plays around him. We are expecting another 30+ points from him on Monday.
Mo Williams has come back from his injury and is playing
well. On Saturday he put up 30 fantasy points and the game before that 23. He
is a great play because of his 4.9k price tag and lack of solid cheap options.
We have him at the shooting guard position because we’re trying to keep our
cheap plays to the guards. Mo isn’t a guy that’ll get you 40 points, but he’s a
solid 25-30 point guy.
Nicolas Batum is a do-it-all kind of guy and can shoot the
three ball quite well. He has put up over 24 points in his last ten games, and
has gone for 37 or more in two of the last three games. He has recorded a block
and a steal in each of the last 3 games and is a solid performer when it comes
to filling the stat sheet. His matchup against the Bobcats is a good one.
David Lee started off slow Saturday, but he had a great game
from the second quarter and on. He ended with just under 40 points, and in the
last ten games has put up 32 each time. In seven of his last ten games he has
gone for over 40. These are great numbers and we don’t mind paying the 8.5k
price tag against a team like Orlando at home.
Anderson Varejao is a monster and faces the bad, but
improving Pistons. Drummond and Monroe are good low post players, but Varejao
makes his money on rebounds and put back shots and he won’t be stopped by those
two. He is stronger physically and has way more experience in the post then
those anybody the Pistons try to throw at him.
Kemba Walker has been a great play in his last ten games
besides the Thunder game. He has gone for over 30 fantasy points in eight of
the last ten games. He’s averaging 14 points and 7 assists in his last two
games, and he’s bounced back quite nicely since a poor performance three games
ago.
Kyle Singler is our other cheap option and really it was
between him and Larry Sanders. Sanders had a monster game last week, but we
were unsure of how many minutes he would consistently see. Singler gets a ton
of minutes (over 30 in each of his last four games) and has put up 19+ points in
his last five games.
Klay Thompson started the season kind of slow, but he has
been great as of late. He has a good price going for only 5.7k Monday. In his
last three games he has gone for 29 or more points in his last 3 games, and
should play well against the Magic. He has taken about 20 shots in each of his
last three games and because of that he has put up 20 real points in those
three games.
