Seige with his ranked plays and analysis for tonight’s 7-game NBA DFS slate!!
What’s going on Mafia? Huge 7-game slate tonight, so lots of different ways to go which makes it a fantastic GPP slate.
Just want everyone to note that the projections are being done by me today, so I added a Projections Note section at the very bottom. If you are wondering why certain guys are popping, make sure they aren’t a situational guy.
I’ll continue to update projections throughout the day and will let you know each time I do in NBA Chat.

Key Injury News to Watch:
Los Angeles Clippers – Kawhi is questionable with a leg injury. I assume that they just used that as an excuse for him to sit the front end of the back-to-back against a Cleveland team they could beat without him. Should Kawhi actually sit, Lou Williams, Serge Ibaka and Reggie Jackson would become top level plays.
Sacramento Kings – Marvin Bagley is questionable. Should Bagley miss the big winner would be Bjelica who came out of hibernation on the bench to post a monster line. That shooting would be nice to have again tonight if Bagley misses so expect him to play similar minutes.
Slate Edges: Attacking GS/CLE, leaving swap options if Kawhi gets ruled out late again, and fading JaVale McGee (DK) and Nerlens Noel.
Projection Notes (Assumptions Made in Current Projections Upload):
– Ruled Joel Embiid in, can’t see how he misses such a big game
– Ruled Bagley out
– My projections are definitely by their nature more aggressive than Ricky’s, if someone feels a tad high to you feel free to move them down a couple points. For example, Bobby Portis on DK right now shows up as an 80% core play, but if you lower that projection even 2-points he comes up in about 30% of optimals. That is a lot better of an option for a MME type crunch, so don’t be afraid to tweak to get those exposures the way you want them.
