NBA DFS: Studs, scrubs, and duds for March 7
Scrubs
Marquese Chriss (vs PHI – $5,900 on DK; $ on FD): Chriss has been playing great for Warriors and the return of Curry will certainly help him because it opens up the floor for him and everyone on the Warriors. If Embiid remains out, that also helps the size of the Warriors. He’s a reliable option with a high ceiling on a slow night.
Kevin Huerter (at MEM – $5,600 on DK; $ on FD): Guys will have to step up with Young out of the lineup and Huerter is one guy who can do it. You can also look at Hunter or Teague who will get more opportunities with Young out of the lineup. There should be plenty of offense in this give how both teams play.
Buddy Hield (at POR – $5,400 on DK; $ on FD): Hield is at a good price and has turned into a consistent option. This is a big game for both teams and it’s not like the Blazers have played much defense this season. Hield is a guy who can get hot and certainly chip in with a big output. The opportunities will certainly be there.
Mike Conley (at DET – $4,900 on DK; $ on FD): Much like Hield, Conley is at a good price give how he’s played recently and the matchup. He’s been all over the place this season but the price is so low on DK that he’s easy to put into your lineup and he shouldn’t hurt you give the matchup.. The matchup is also why the ceiling is high for him.
