NBA DFS: Studs, scrubs, and duds for November 23
Scrubs
Cody Zeller (vs CHI – $5,300 on DK; $6,300 on FD): The Bulls are extremely weak against the position and Zeller has the tools to take advantage of them with him scoring and rebounding. He hasn’t seen many minutes as of late but I will attribute that to the matchup and Biyombo being a better option in those games. Zeller will be the better option on Saturday.
OG Anunoby (at ATL – $5,300 on DK; $5,900 on FD): Anunoby has been inconsistent as of late but with the Hawks on a back to back, this feels like a game where he can really find his rhythm. The pace will be up and we know Anunoby can do a bit of everything.
Larry Nance Jr. (vs POR – $5,000 on DK; $6,400 on FD): I’m riding the Cavaliers frontcourt on Saturday. The Blazers won’t have an answer for the board brothers of Love and Nance Jr. A double-double should be expected and his scoring output could be strong given the opponent.
Coby White (at CHA – $5,000 on DK; $5,400 on FD): White has been consistent if nothing else, but expect more out of this matchup. He’s shown a high ceiling and given how bad the Hornets defense is, this feels like a big time scoring game for White. He’ll be well above value.
Rajon Rondo (at MEM – $4,900 on DK; $4,400 on FD): The Grizzlies are weak against the position and even though Rondo can be inconsistent, this is a good matchup for him. On the back to back, if the top guys on the Lakers want to sit back a little, Rondo can definitely step up. I’m playing the matchup here.
