NBA Rundown: Sunday 03/01
By Ethan Tabor
What to expect
We will provide a basic rundown of the slate each day rather it’s in article, podcast or video form. The rundown will include games and spreads that day with correlated matchups, We will have a write up for specific players that we see advantages or disadvantages to having in your lineup, and we will then finish the rundown by giving you the top options at each position. The goal here is to not just give the best plays to win money but to teach you how to construct winning lineups on your own to make DFS a profitable game rather than a gamble. This article will be posted each day, at least an hour and a half before lineup lock. If the days slate starts at 7pm EST then you can expect the rundown posted no later than 5:30pm. Follow us on twitter to keep updated on the inevitable injury updates and how that will effect your lineups after this article is posted. https://twitter.com/Money_LineDFS
Today’s Slate
Little 4 gamer to feed our gambling needs is all we need.
Top Plays
Norman Powell- Toronto is short handed with no VanVleet or Ibaka tonight. Denver is by no means a good matchup but I love how much Powell chucks the Ball for this team. Now factor in the extra usage and minutes with these guys off the court and I see him being a solid play at a great value.
Nikola Jokic- Jokic hasn’t played 30 minutes in his last two games because of blow outs. I expect him while being well rested to get a good dose of minutes tonight in what should be a competitive game. Toronto has also ruled out Ibaka which leaves me to wonder who the hell is going to be on the Joker. I’m stuck trying to believe RHJ or Boucher could guard him? This Raptors team is very good defensively but these guys don’t get minutes for a reason and Nikola Jokic is elite in all categories. I think he’s a great spend up on DK at just $9300
Mychal Mulder- this guy wasn’t in the nba 2 days ago but yet here we are. Mulder saw 34 minutes last night with Jordan Poole ruled out against Phoenix. Needless to say this matchup today with Washington is much better. If Poole is ruled out again you have to own this $3,300 shooter. He will have his way against the wizards and I fricken love this game in general. For me, anyone in this game is a valuable option on this little slate

Notes
I’m keeping most of my interest in the lakers/pelicans game as well as wizards/ warriors. I do Love jokic and Powell but aside from that these early games aren’t gaining my interest. Follow us on twitter for these injury updates as we do have some big names questionable. Jordan Poole news, Anthony Davis seems shaken up, Paul Millsap will make Jerami Grant a great play. Keep updated for a short slate like this because you miss out on money with one little slip.
