Daily Fantasy Sports Handicapping

We are playing 2 ten team tournaments today with our fantasy roster.  One of the tournaments filled up, but the other may not fill due to the deadline being 2:30 today.  The structure is a 7 player, 210 point cap game.

We are putting an interesting lineup on the floor today and sticking with the Studs and Duds approach.  Today we single out Randy Foye as our dud and we are building the team around him.  He is near minimum wage at $11 but has been getting nice minutes as Minnesota is out of the race and trying to get things figured out for next year.  He put in 40 minutes and collected 23FP in his last game and I’d be more than happy with a repeat of that today.  Put Tracy McGrady (32) and Brandon Roy (31) at the other two guard positions.  Guard is just an ugly position today, as just about all the top matchups are just terrible.

At forward I’m going with Dirk Nowitzki (36), Ron Artest (31) and Chris Bosh (35).  I wanted LeBron, but with a smaller 210 point cap today, it just wasn’t possible without sacrificing another position.  Bosh was the second choice and $13 cheaper.  I just hope the TOR/NYK isn’t a blowout and Bosh doesn’t end up on the bench for the fourth quarter.

At center I’m going with Ming.  He gets a matchup v. a very inexperienced interior of T. Thomas and J. Noah.  He should have a big day.
