NBA DFS: Studs, scrubs, and duds for November 27
Scrubs
Luke Kennard (at CHA – $5,800 on DK; $5,800 on FD): The Hornets are weak against the position and Kennard has proven himself to be a high ceiling player throughout this season. He’s not only a guy who can rack up points, but Point Kennard is a real thing and he’s racking up assists as well. The poor performances against the Hornets is slightly concerning, but shouldn’t be enough to deter you.
Davis Bertans (at PHO – $5,300 on DK; $6,000 on FD): On a big night with so many games, consistency isn’t a bad thing. And Bertans is going to give you consistency with a high ceiling give his scoring ability. The points should be up in this game so grabbing any value from the Washington and Phoenix role players is highly recommend.
Markelle Fultz (at CLE – $5,600 on DK; $6,000 on FD): Fultz has turned into a consistent player as he works himself into the form that made him the top overall pick. His salary has climbed, which probably means a lot of people will go away from him. After the Cavaliers, this is still an opportunity to grab him at a decent price against a great matchup.
Marc Gasol (vs NY – $5,400 on DK; $5,700 on FD): You’re getting consistency against a great matchup with Gasol. As mentioned earlier, on such a big name, you need some guys you can just count on to deliver who could exceed expectations with a great matchup in front of them. Gasol isn’t going to hurt you and given that he’s up against the Knicks, could perform in a big way.
Danilo Gallinari (at POR – $6,200 on DK; $6,700 on FD): Gallinari slips under the salary line and he has a great matchup against a Portland team that has no great options in their frontcourt. Gallinari should be able to have his away against Carmelo and the weak Blazers defense. There’s some good value among OKC players given the matchup and the salaries of CP3, SGA, and Schroder compared to the rest of the field. I’m feeling Gallinari the most.
