The Pelicans matchup against the Kings looks very enticing. Grabbing at least one Pelicans is recommended (and yes, I know I don’t have one in my example lineup). The Knicks-Nets game could produce a weird fantasy stud much like Knicks-Hawks. The same goes for Hornets-Magic. There are two games between arguably the two best teams in both conferences. Games like that are always tricky because ceilings can be limited, even if players are reliable.

Reminder: This is just an example lineup built on players discussed in previous slides. I try to pick a balanced lineup, but you may prefer to go heavy on top-end players and hope a low-cost option impressed. Or you may prefer a high-risk, high-reward lineup. Personally, I play multiple lineups depending on the league I enter.

If you have any questions about a certain player or lineup decision, I’m happy to answer on Twitter. Good luck tonight.
