 Hey, what's going on? I am Greg Sussman, joined today by Tom Vecchio, a FanDuel. We're here to break down opening night in the NBA. I'm trying to win a million dollars here, Tom. It's right, it's opening night. They were playing a big contest. We had a two game slate, so let's go. I'm excited, man. I opened the FanDuel basketball fantasy DFS app. Like, I'm trying to fill out my lineup. You're gonna help me win a million bucks. I am not gonna give you any. I am excited. So let's begin with your top play on the board. You're going with the highest price player on the board. And that is LeBron James. I don't know if you're gonna try to get LeBron and Anthony Davis in the lineup, but LeBron's your number one guy. How come? That's right, getting both of them into your lineup could be a bit tough because we're dealing with limited value. You'd have to go superstars and scrubs for that. But I like starting off with LeBron, getting a player that can get a triple double into your lineup. Now, as the season goes on, we could certainly see LeBron sit a few extra games, play limited minutes, but it's opening night. We want to be taking the best player on the planet in our lineups. That's where we want to be going. We shouldn't see too much of a change from last season. They added a few role players. They let a few role players go. But last year, LeBron had a 31% usage rate, still produced 1.47 fainting points per minute. I'm not expecting much to change. I'm spending all the way up for $11,000 for LeBron James. $11,000 for LeBron James tonight. Going out to spend his crown. You say there's no value there. We're gonna talk about value here in just a few moments, but LeBron James, lock him in there at $11,000. Up next is some of that value because one player that we know is not playing tonight is Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors. Draymond's out, which means Eric Pascal is probably going to get the start. And he is just over $4,000 as a starting power forward tonight. Pascal had a really nice year last year, filling in a lot for Draymond Green and his Indian Warriors team. You like him tonight. Exactly. This is one of the values that we do know, something that we can be counting on. And a lot of those things, as you just said, are what I really want to bank on for opening night. Last year, Draymond was out. We saw him step into the lineup. Last year, Pascal had a, what was it, a 21.5% usage rate when Green was off the court. Now, we also have to count for the fact that Steph Curry was also off the court for the entirety of last year, except for a handful of games. So we're not gonna see that usage rate up at 21%. Again, it's probably gonna drop a little bit, but we have Pascal projected for 33 minutes tonight, going for about 26 fainting points. And we need the value on tonight's two game slate. So, you know, we can't talk about all stars today. We can't talk about all value playstay. We need a mix of both. And Pascal should be that guy. We need to find value. Pascal's under $5,000. He's a little more than I thought at 4900, but he's gonna start here for Draymond Green. But I do wanna throw it back at you to another power forward eligible Golden State Warrior. And that's Marquis Chris, right? He's priced at $4,400. We're not sure if it's gonna be him or James. Why's he in the starting lineup? But Chris is also a value here at this price now. Yeah, absolutely. I'm waiting more for the starting lineup because we also have to consider Kevin Looney in there at center. Now, Kevin Looney, I would say, has a lower ceiling compared to someone like Marquis Chris, but we're worried about the starting and we're worried about the minutes for those two players along with Wiseman. So there's a lot of moving parts going on. We wanna focus in on Eric Pascal as number one. And I'd be certainly willing to go to Marquis Chris as number two. Yes, Eric Pascal, you're number one. Marquis Chris is number two, but you can't necessarily go with both of them here, Tom, because Kevin Durant this year is listed as a power forward on Fandalo, at least for right now. He's $8,500 tonight as he makes his debut as a member of this Brooklyn Nets team. You wanna lock and load Durant in his return over some of these other value guys. Why Durant here this evening? Yeah, so Durant, I wanna say, is gonna be my lock of the night. Might be a little bit of a hot take, but Durant is $8,500. If we have the ceiling that we know Durant can bring, he shouldn't be this cheap. So I wanna say that this is probably one of the only times we're gonna be able to get Durant's under $9,000. We know throughout the course of his career, he can easily be $9,500, $10,500, $11,000, or whatever it might be. So yes, a new offence, getting involved with Kyrie. You're being who's gonna get the ball the most. I really don't care. Durant, $8,500, I'm locking him into as many lineups as possible tonight. Maybe it's a little bit of a narrative streak, but Kevin Durant is back, and you wanna play him, right? At $8,500, if he could be Kevin Durant, well, that's a heck of a value for you tonight on Opening Night. That's it for us here on the Fandale Hurry Up. Tom, I am excited. I'm excited to do it again tomorrow, man. This is, let me ease back. It's football season, while I get stuff right now at Fandale. Thanks so much for the time. Thanks so much and good luck tonight. You too, my friend, tomorrow. Join us for another edition of the Fandale Hurry Up as we're gonna take a look at week number 16 of this NFL season. We're talking about you. I'm Greg Sussman. Thanks so much for watching, and I'll see you back here tomorrow for another edition of the Fandale Hurry Up.
