 Hey everyone, what's going on? I am Greg Suspin joined today by Tom Vecchio, a fan new who's here to not break down football. What's happening, Tom? Yeah, it's that time of year. Fancy playoffs are here for football. A lot of things are pretty much sets are going to shift over to NBA for a little bit. So let's break it down. We're going to do this every Tuesday the rest of the month before we dive in in 2020 into the NBA. So let's break it down for tonight's NBA slate. Let's begin with some of the top studs that are on the board. Let's begin with arguably the league MVP at 20 years old. Let's start with Luca Dacic. Yeah, Don't just having an amazing season and really everything sets up is going to be Don't just nice and be hard on for people tonight. I think you can do both in the same roster tonight and this matchup for Luca Don't just night is amazing. First of all, a 232 point over under is something we always want to be attacking and currently with this starting five, the Mavericks have right now. He has a 39.5% usage rate putting up 1.88 fan dual points per minute. We already know he's walking triple double waiting to happen, but there's so many other factors going on. First of all, it's a pace up spot for the Mavericks. They come in 17th in the league when it comes to pace. The pelicans are up at fifth fastest, which is phenomenal. Extra touches on the ball for a player that's already hyper productive is amazing. And the pelicans are actually dead last in the league when it comes to fan dual points allowed per game to point guards at 51.9 the season. So you're spending all the way up. You are getting a player in a pace up spot with a massive usage rate in a phenomenal defensive matchup. He really just checks all the boxes tonight. Luca Don't check checks the box every night because of what he does as you described. He's just so good at so many different things. He's been a beast this season. He's only getting better. Luca Don't price rate tonight and should be in your lineups. But you're not building around Luca or maybe you want to get multiple studs and go with the Stars and Scrubs strategy for tonight. You can also get James Harden in there who wasn't the player of the week last week. That was Carmelo Anthony despite scoring 60 points in three quarters. James Harden, he's also a really good time. Yeah, like you said, 60 points in 30 minutes and didn't win, you know, player of the week as Carmelo took it. Listen, you can say what you want about Harden. You want him in your lineup at any time you can possibly afford him. You actually look at that game and he made 20 free throws in that game. If you subtract the 20 points he had from his Fandal score of 82 points, he would still be reaching 5x value subtracting 20 real points, which is amazing. It is a pace down spot for the Rockets going up against San Antonio tonight, but posting a 30% usage rate, 1.64 Fandal points per minute. He gets the line. He takes a ton of threes, double digit three pointers in almost every single game in this recent stretch. You want him in your lineup at $12,000. I don't think the $400 is that much of a difference getting up the Donches. But like I said, I think you can do both of them in your lineups tonight. Two players who could easily go for 60 plus Fandal C points. Getting both Luigi Donic and James Harden in your lineup is certainly a way to just jump on it very nice and early. We're going to have to get to the value plays a little bit later on and tell you how you can do it. But James Harden always a lock for a monster number here on Fandal. Moving on to another stud that we like tonight that brings us to Brandon Ingram. The Pelican star has been fantastic this season and is in a good spot tonight. How come Tom? Yeah, $9,300 for Ingram tonight. And like you said, he's really having a nice season, really coming into his own. And at small forward, I actually like the idea tonight of fading LeBron, just having no exposure to him, taking the $2,100 savings and going to Ingram, the $232 point over under for Ingram versus Mavericks is so, so much better compared to LeBron against the Nuggets, which is at $209. So you take the savings and then you go to Ingram. It is a pace down spot for the Pelicans, as I mentioned with Luca. It's a pace up spot for him. But we have Dallas allowing the fourth most Fandal points to small forwards this year at $43.2. And you just look at Ingram's game log and it's 35 plus minutes and basically every single game, he's taking not only double digit field goal attempts in every game, but he's up at 18, 19, 22, 25 field goal attempts and basically all these games and they still have Drew Holliday on the court. So the pace of this game should be great. The match up is great and you're getting savings compared to LeBron, which I know a lot of people just generally always try and reach up for. So I'm taking the savings and I'm going with Ingram tonight in what should be a very, very fancy friendly environment. Take that savings under $10,000 for Brandon Ingram. The minutes are there. The usage is there. The pace is there. It's a perfect, perfect spot for Brandon Ingram to continue to go off and continue the fantastic season that he's been having. All right. You're going to get all these studs in there. You've got to find some value plays. Let's begin in San Antonio, where Trey Lyles fits that mold. How come? So he fits the mold because as of now, you know, we're recording this around noon Eastern, the Marcus Aldridge is still listed as questionable for the Spurs. And we know Trey Lyles isn't probably going to make the starting lineup, even if Marcus Aldridge is out, but he should see an increase in minutes. It's probably going to be Rudy Gay stepping into the starting lineup for the Marcus Aldridge, but at 3.6K, Lyles only needs 18 Fandal points in order to reach 5x value, which I think is doable. When Aldridge is off the court this season, Lyles is posting 1.01 Fandal points per minute, which is great for a guy who's that cheap. He only has a 12.5% usage rate, which is not great by any measure. But we have the Rockets allowing 48.3 Fandal points per game this season, which is the fifth worst in the league. So we take a high scoring game, which it is, a pace-up spot for the Spurs, which is a cheap player, and he's being productive when he's on the court. It kind of all lines up for him to maybe hit 22, 24ish, 25 Fandal points, exceeding 5x value. And he's 3.6K, which is $100 above the minimum. It's really a great spot for Lyles if the Marcus Aldridge is out tonight. Again, as Tom mentioned, recording around noon Eastern, which means we don't have the final report if Aldridge will play or not. You've got to wait to line up slack for that. But if he's not playing at $3600, Tray Lyles should be able to do just enough to hopefully get you the 18 to 20 points that you need to reach 5x value and make him well worth putting in your lineup. Over to Orlando, where we've been looking at Cambridge, we've been looking at Moabamba, who have been starting in place and getting more minutes in place, and Nicola Vuchovic, who has been out for a while. Why do you like Moabamba over Burch tonight? You know, Moabamba, Burch, who do you want to go to tonight? And you know, for me, Moabamba is a little bit cheaper, and you've seen over 20 minutes in 3 to 5 games. Like you said, the minutes are there recently with Vuchovic out, and this is a great, great pace-up spot for the Magic. They are dead last in the league when it comes to pace. So in theory, when they play anyone, it's a pace-up spot, but the Wizards are third fastest in the league when it comes to pace. So this is a big jump up. Going up against the Wizards, who are allowing 60.4 FanDuel points per game, which is the second most in the league to senders this season, is really just an amazing, amazing matchup to attack, and he needs 22.5 FanDuel points to reach 5x value. He has posted 22.4 FanDuel points in four of his last five games. The matchup, the pace-up, the cheaper price tag. We're working with everything with Bomba tonight, and he's 4.5k. Take the savings with him, take the savings with Trey Liles, and you're going to be able to get up to Luka and Hardin tonight. And there's no all-gerage here tonight, and we already know, obviously, there's no Butcherbeck. Getting Hardin and Luka and Brandon in here, finding a way to get them all on our line-ups, that certainly bodes well for our FanDuel scoring tonight. Bomba, a fine value piece. One last player to get soon that brings us to the other side of this game with Washington and Jordan McCray. Why do you like McCray tonight? $4,000 from McCray, and there's a lot of interesting things when it comes to Jordan McCray. First of all, he's a clear, clear bench player. He plays behind Bradley Beale. He is not a starter. That is clearly no. But he has eight or more field goal attempts in five straight games, five or more three-point attempts in three of his past four games, and generally plays when Bradley Beale is off the court. I went back and looked at some of the game flow logs for their past few games against the Clippers, against the Lakers, and against Phoenix in this recent stretch they had on the West Coast. When the games get out of hand, like they did against the Clippers and the Lakers, Bradley Beale is sitting basically the entire fourth quarter and McCray is in there the entire fourth quarter or 10-plus minutes. So he's not competing for usage, and in that time he's putting up 0.91 Fandu points per minute, which is great. So we have a cheap player who shoots threes and is generally reliant on pure scoring. But if this game gets out of hand and you know the Wizards aren't the best team in the league, we know Bradley Beale will likely sit and then McCray will be out there just taking all these shots. He needs 22, you know, 20 Fandu points to reach 5x now. He's put up 22 in four of his last six. I love the shot volume for a guy coming off the bench at $4,000. As you said, McCray is a clear bench player. There is no question what his role is. He plays behind Beale, but that's okay. I don't want to go off court with Beale at the same time because then he won't score. Jordan McCray, in his role at $4,000, certainly fits into our Fandu lineup tonight. That's going to do it for us here on today's Fandu Hurry. It was an awesome getting back in the NBA flow of things. Tom, I look forward to doing it again next week. Yeah, a little more NBA to close out the year. It should be good. All right, tomorrow I'll be joined by Jim Sinis and we'll take an early look at week number 14 from a DFS perspective in the NFL. Have a great night. Thanks so much for watching and we'll see you tomorrow.
