Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Obvious Starts
Jayson Tatum – SF/PF ($10,000 DK)
Tatum will get his. He’s playing, and he will be able to provide fantasy owners with what they need. Furthermore, Jaylen Brown is out. Therefore, he may even receive more touches than he normally does. Either way, he is averaging 49.5 fantasy points over the last 10 days. It’s hard to see him not accumulating at least 4x value for you.
Miles Bridges – SF/PF ($7,600 DK)
The Charlotte Hornets have one choice: to be competitive tonight against the Boston Celtics. They will need Bridges and Miller to both have big nights. In terms of fantasy, Bridges will give you what you are looking for. He is averaging 39.1 fantasy points per game. Therefore, even if the rest of the team struggles, you know he’ll be able to produce.
Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Obvious Starts
Derrick White – PG ($7,500 DK)
White is someone who fits well into this Boston Celtics role, and he continues to impress. Even when things are not necessarily going well in terms of shooting, he finds ways to contribute. Therefore, at 33.9 fantasy points per game and at his price, this is someone you need to include tonight.
Al Horford – PF/C ($5,800 DK)
Horford is someone who is due for an offensive explosion every now and then. While that is not the most likely option for the Boston Celtics, he should be able to still have good fantasy production while playing for the Charlotte Hornets. While not as athletic, he still offers size and skill that will give the frontcourt problems. Therefore, at 28.4 fantasy points per game over the last 10 days, he too is someone you need to have.
Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Sit ‘Em
Jaylen Brown – SG/SF ($ 8,100 DK)
Brown is injured and will not be able to go. However, if he had been able to play, he’s someone who can always find the ball and finds ways to impact the game. Furthermore, at times, he looks more confident than Tatum. There are some nights where you need to consider him over his other top-producing counterpart.
Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Lock of the Day
Brandon Miller – SG/SF ($6,500 DK)
The Charlotte Hornets rookie continues to impress. And while he may be in trouble tonight defensively in terms of offense, he can still put up points. Therefore, his 32.6 points per game over the last 10 days are impressive and deserve more than consideration. This team has others who can score and produce, but don’t be surprised if he ends up being the best overall and all-around contributor for the Charlotte Hornets tonight.
