Scrubs

Jae Crowder (vs UTA – $4,900 on DK; $5,000 on FD): Crowder had a strong outing the last time these two teams met and there is a revenge factor involved for him given the trade. He can be inconsistent but the minutes and opportunities are going to be there for him and he’s at a nice salary to over perform in a big way.

Rodney Hood (vs CHI – $5,000 on DK; $4,700 on FD): Hood is a streaky player, but he’s on a hot streak right now, so you should keep taking him as long as he’s feeling himself. And against the Bulls, it should be another easy night for Hood. The Blazers have looked re-energized lately and obviously the matchups help.

Dennis Schroder (vs NO – $5,800 on DK; $5,700 on FD): Schroder is as hot and cold as they come, but there’s a lot to like in this matchup. The Pelicans overall defense isn’t good, the Thunder is at home where they’re played their best basketball, and Schroder is certainly going to get his shots and control of the offense. Take the risk and steal your league.

TJ Warren (vs ATL – $5,400 on DK; $5,600 on FD): Orlando game aside, Warren has been good over the last couple of weeks. And the matchup certainly benefits him on Friday. He’s settled into his role nicely and given the amount of points the Pacers should put up in this game, Warren is a safe option with a high ceiling.

Justise Winslow (vs GS – $5,700 on DK; $5,700 on FD): Much like Adebayo, Winslow’s value increases if Butler is out of the lineup. If Butler ends up playing, Nunn might be the better option simply because of his scoring ability. Either way, there’s some good value on Miami against this matchup that should easily hit and then some.
