Many of the cash anchors can anchor GPP lines as well. However, there’s a lot of value out there if you’re willing to take some risks. Do keep in mind that you wont be able to use all five staples in the same lineup. These are just guidelines to help in your build.

This was requested by a loyal reader and avid sports bettor. I am going to try to predict the “trifecta” each night, as in the three highest scoring players on the slate. I have yet to hit all three, and only got two of them a couple of times.
Lillard led the way with Westbrook a close second. DeRozan was the only other one that hit 50, so Lillard was my only decent pick. Sabonis was third at PF with only 37.25 DraftKings points. On to tonight!
Kawhi (if George out). If not, I’ll go Beal
Jokic
Trae
The same person who requested the trifecta also suggested that I try to project high ownership. This could be tricky, but here are the three I think will be highest owned, in no particular order.
CJ was third in ownership at 30%. Westbrook was seventh at 22%. Jackson finished tenth, so all of my picks were in the top ten. That’s a good success rate. Poeltl led the way at 41.55%. Melo was at 30.36%, just 0.35% ahead of CJ. Let’s see about tonight!
Beal
Bryant
Kawhi, if George out. If not, I’ll go with Jokic.
