 Hey everybody what's going on, I am Greg Sussman joined today by Ricky Sanders of dailyrotor.com who's here to break down tonight's NBA slate. What's happening Ricky? Nothing, I think it's a good night for tonight to be called the hurry up. We got three games of the 228 point total or higher. We've got a couple unsure situations amongst you know the superstars but otherwise we got a lot of value at point guard. We got a lot of guys worth spending up for so I think it should be a fun night. Yeah, it should be a blast man. I'm excited about it as well. Let's talk about some of these stars in these highly peace games and that brings us to the king LeBron James. That's the superstar we're building around tonight. Why do you like LeBron? I would like Giannis if that game were expected to remain competitive but I just am not sure how the Kings keep that one close so instead we'll go to LeBron James at home as 12 point favorites in his own right. He's much cheaper than Giannis. He's 1100 cheaper and we've got them projected within about two and a half fantasy points of one another tonight and you look at it I mean even with Anthony Davis in rotation LeBron James has posted some really solid rates this year. He's a 49 and a half percent assist rate with Anthony Davis this year. You look at the baselines on dailyroto.com besides that 30 and a half percent usage rate about a 12 percent rebound rate and you look at the matchup specifically against the Suns a team that's a league average defense against opposing front courts and LeBron has lit them up over 51 fan duel fantasy points and three of his last five meetings. I think it's a good spot here for him to get up and down the court and those are the kind of games where you can get LeBron approaching a triple double and that's what you want to see if you're rostering him so I really like that sort of pace to this game tonight. It should be a fun one for LeBron and the pace like some of these other games out there should be fast should be high scoring so LeBron in a good spot tonight for the Lakers which means he's in a good spot for you on fan duel. Up next the next story you got to make sure you get in there is the Dominator. It's a bonus of the Indiana Pacers. Prices come down but he's still really good. Yeah. I mean even with Victor Oladipo back we're talking about a player who just has some massive rates upside again. His usage rate is going to come under duress with Victor Oladipo and even so on Daily Roto. We're projecting him for over 20 percent rates across the board that's over 20 percent usage over 20 percent assist rate and over a 20 percent rebound rate and there are just so few of those players across the NBA and especially so few that come at under eight thousand dollars on fan duel. I mean he's facing a Brooklyn defense that is really struggling at centers. They've been good up against power forwards but I think it's kind of sneaky here. You know it's sneaky wrong to look at this matchup. It kind of just identifies the bonuses the power forward because they split up Miles Turner and some bonus and some bonus will play some extended stretches at the center position. So it makes sense that he's gone over 46 fan duel fantasy points in each of his meetings against them this year. We're only projecting 44 tonight but 44 fantasy points is a ton at an under eight K price tag which makes it just a fantastic value. Now you is amazing. Some owners are going to have plenty of opportunities to pick up the pace for the at Indiana Pacers and score a ton on fan duel. It's a bonus. Always one of our favorites and tonight is very much included. The one guy you got to get in there tonight Ricky. It's Nikola Vuchovic. This team total I know you're going to talk about it is crazy for Orlando. It's the team that their game totals always around like 206. Their team total tonight at 114. It's insane. Yeah you just never see that for the magic and that's again 11 points above their seasonal average. Vegas is expecting against this Hawks team which obviously speeds teams up their fourth in pace this year. They also have not been able to defend the post their dead last in post defense in terms of points per possession allowed and obviously Nikola Vuchovic just a fantastic player in the post. Now the addition of Dwayne Deadman who's a 60th percentile defender in the post should help solidify you know their weaknesses. But I don't think he's magically going to fix this defense and Vuchy Main is priced under $9000 and in a matchup like this where this team is projected to score basically a ceiling game for their offense. You know they're going to need Vuchy in the middle doing some work. I am a little bit concerned that we have a second end of a back to back here with the Hawks and the game could get out of hand but I do expect Vuchovic to be a big part of this game getting out of hand if it gets to that point. I have a little bit more confidence in the Hawks than you do. I think the Hawks will be able to keep this one closed. I do know it's a second end of a back to back for them WOT last night against the Knicks but I think the Hawks will keep it close against Orlando and Nikola Vuchovic should have his way. It's going to be a fun one between the magic and the Hawks and Nikola Vuchovic is going to be the reason why. All right for all of these guys we named three pretty expensive stars. We got to find some value and let's break it down and begin with point guard Ian Dallas and that's Jalen Brunson. We know Christos Prasnikis is questionable. Luka Dodgic not expected to play which means Jalen Brunson should be in in store for a pretty big workload this evening. Yeah and Jalen Brunson has kind of been solidified in the starting lineup. I need him to be a starter in order to consider him because they have done some weird things where JJ Berea has started but that kind of looks like a thing of the past and when we've got Brunson starting without Luka Dodgic we've gotten production this year. He's averaging 28 and a half fan dual fantasy points per game without Dodgic this year and now we have Christops Porzingis questionable as well. And I know it was a match against the Hawks but he went into the mid forties of fan dual fantasy points that that game where there was no Porzingis and there was no Dodgic he shot poorly the last time it was a similar scenario. But you look at the rates. I mean he has been a 35 and a half percent assist rate without Luka Dodgic this year so you don't even need Porzingis out to know that this is an upgraded version of Jalen Brunson while he's on the floor. His usage rate improves about two percentage points so it goes up but not as crazily. But it's really the minutes over 29 minutes per game without Luka. Again we expect him to start. And the matchup isn't perfect against this jazz team but he's being priced at forty six hundred and he's a starting point guard. So I think that's the end of the equation there. You look at the rates you look at the overall context it's just too good to pass. You look at the rates. You look at those stats. Most importantly Ricky you look at that price. It's way too good to pass up. Jalen Brunson is in store for a big game. Let's take advantage tonight. Get Brunson in there for under five K. Another value player that we're loving here tonight. It's Kendrick Nunn on the Miami Heat. Why do you like none in this spot for Miami second night of back to back for them. Well I think the masses are going to be scared off of Kendrick Nunn after his last kind of let's call it what it was a stinker. He did not shoot well from the field. He shot just four of eighteen. So I think people are going to say well this player isn't guaranteed to be productive without hero in Butler. And while no one's guaranteed to be productive he is a guy who's averaged thirty two and a half minutes per game without Tyler hero this year. The Warriors twenty ninth in defensive efficiency against opposing point guards. And this is a guy who over the course of those last two games without Tyler hero has taken thirty seven shots. So sure he shot poorly last game but if he has just a below average shooting game as opposed to like a floor game. We're still talking about a good game from Kendrick Nunn at forty six hundred. I think you go right back to the well with him and you don't worry about that last game. You just look at the quantity man the amount of shots that Kendrick Nunn is taking well worth getting him in there. We know it didn't necessarily work out. Tonight it's going to. Ricky promises Kendrick Nunn in there in your lineups. One final player to get to here this evening and it is Bruce Brown. Not a name we've talked about a lot recently but given some of the maneuvers at the trade deadline Bruce Brown makes some sense tonight. Bruce Brown is just a player who's going to be on the floor a lot without Derek Rose. The Charlotte team struggles in the paint which is good news for for Brown who will get to the paint but it's also good news for his potential assist attempt or you know completing the assist where he's got players that he could dump the ball to in the paint and we're projecting him for thirty two and a half minutes in this role. He's forty five hundred so basically the same price tag as the other guys we've talked about and while his raw projection isn't quite as impressive we're still talking about a player without Derek Rose we've got projected over a twenty six percent assist rate. He's not as big of a part of the offense as the other players in terms of shooting. He's like a seventeen to half percent usage rate player but we feel better about his minutes upside comparatively to Jalen Brunson. I mean if there's one of these two players who could play thirty seven minutes it's clearly Bruce Brown. Charlotte not a defense we're worried about and this Detroit team who you know lost Andre Drummond they're actually home favorites tonight which you don't see a lot. So in a competitive game environment against a team with multiple guards which you know the team likes to use Bruce Brown to defend like the off guard. You can choose Davante Graham Terry Rossier should be plenty of minutes for Brown regardless I think it's just a spot where he should be on the floor a lot and the Pistons obviously will remain competitive so I think that's a good you know set up for him as well. And what should be a competitive environment for Detroit Bruce Brown is going to be out there a lot. We'll take the minutes and hope the production comes along with it. Opportunity doesn't always create production hopefully tonight for Bruce Brown it does just that. Reece Anders we appreciate the time good luck tonight. Of course thanks for having me as always. Absolutely tomorrow we join my Jim Sannas and Dave Osmanics who take a look at this week on the PGA tour. Have a great night. Enjoy the games and we'll see you back here tomorrow for another edition of the Fandal Hurry Out.
