Milwaukee Bucks vs New Orleans Pelicans Obvious Starts
Damian Lillard – ($8,800 DK)
Lillard is going to have a good night with the Milwaukee Bucks. He’s given fantasy owners 45.8 points per game over the last 10 days. Furthermore, his season average is 43.5 FPPG. Therefore, even though he has a steep price, considering what you get, this is actually a bargain.
Trey Murphy III – ($6,200 DK)
The guard is stepping up since the absence of Brandon Ingram. In the last five games, he has averaged 28.9 FPPG. Even on an off night, he will be able to give you consistent production around the high 20s or even low 30s. Particularly against this Milwaukee Bucks backcourt, he’s poised for another good fantasy night.
Milwaukee Bucks vs New Orleans Start ‘Em
Brook Lopez – ($5,000 DK)
Lopez knows his role on this team. Furthermore, he is giving fantasy owners 20.2 fantasy points per game. On the Pelicans frontcourt, conversely, he’ll see favorable matchups for himself. Additionally, he’s coming off an off-shooting night and should be able to get himself going again for the Milwaukee Bucks against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Zion Williamson – ($8,900 DK)
Williamson is not only healthy but playing some of the best basketball of his career. This is a no-brainer. Especially as Giannis ANtetokounmpo is dealing with injuries, he will see plenty of good looks and opportunities tonight.
Milwaukee Bucks vs New Orleans Sit ‘Em
Jae Crowder – ($3,300 DK)
The frontcourt player will not only see limited minutes but will not have favorable matchups. Long story short, there are better options. Even though his price is low, it’s a wasted roster space, hoping for him to have a breakout fantasy day.
Milwaukee Bucks vs New Orleans Lock of the Day
CJ McCollum– ($7,200 DK)
McCollum is playing great. Over the last five games, he has averaged 36.6 fantasy points per game. Additionally, he had 40 fantasy points in the game against the Pistons. Therefore, he’s going to have at least 30 fantasy points and could push for 40 FP again tonight against the Milwaukee Bucks. The New Orleans Pelicans are looking to hold on to their slot in the west until Brandon Ingram gets back, and McCollum is going to do a lot of the heavy lifting.
