Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Obvious Starts
Jalen Green – ($9,000 DK)
Green is stepping up big-time for the Houston Rockets. Against the 26th-ranked Dallas Mavericks team, you have to include him in your lineup. Additionally, at 34.2 FPPG it’s really hard to see you going somewhere else with your roster tonight.
Kyrie Irving – ($8,900 DK)
The guard continues to show his skills and prowess. Even though he plays with one of the more ball-centric players, he too can have huge fantasy production. This year, he’s averaging 43.6 fantasy points per game. And on the low end, he’s going to get into the upper 30s. Therefore, at minimum, you’re going to get 4X fantasy value from Irving as the Dallas Mavericks play the Houston Rockets tonight.
Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Start ‘Em
Fred VanVleet – ($8,200 DK)
Bridges is a consistent fantasy producer. Therefore, it’s a little troubling to see why the main contributor to the Charlotte Hornets is priced so low. Furthermore, the Los Angeles Clippers will give up points. Therefore, at 38.9 FPPG, you can’t go wrong with the product out of Michigan State.
Daniel Gafford – C ($5,500 DK)
Gafford is someone who will give you close to or even over 30 fantasy points. Especially against this Houston Rockets team without their starting center, it’s easy to see him easily getting his season average of 28.9 fantasy points. The Dallas Mavericks big man is going to have another great night for you.
Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Sit ‘Em
Luka Doncic – PG ($12,600 DK)
Doncic is someone who is going to play through injury no matter what. However, this is a game where the physical nature of how the Houston Rockets defend may affect him a little more than in past games. Especially when you consider his price and his relative health, it’s wise to sit him out of this game.
Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Lock of the Day
Amen Thompson – PG/SF ($7,000 DK)
Thompson is priced at only $7,000. Therefore, his 10-day average of 37.8 fantasy points is a steal. Furthermore, he’s coming off a great 49.0 fantasy night. Therefore, against what has been an improved Dallas Mavericks defense, it’s still wise to start the Houston Rockets player.
