Hi there! I’m Glen but I go by Blande and you can find me on twitter as @DfsBlande . I’m a contributor and coach over here at the DFS Army.
We have a massive 10-game slate tonight, filled with a lot of studs in great positions and tremendous value. Navigating all that value will be extremely important tonight, so make sure to read up on all the articles and coaches notes. Picking the right 6th Men today could be exactly what we need to get to the top, so let’s dive in!
Shoutout to NoLimits24 for this fantastic takedown!
CORE PLAYS
JaMychal Green (5200/4500): Green has finally found his footing this season. He has gone for over 30 FDPs in his last 2 games and is playing his best ball of the season. He gets a fabulous matchup against the Pelicans today. Given his very affordable price, safe floor and high ceiling, he makes for an excellent core play on both sites.
Terrence Ross (5500/5000): Ross has quietly been balling for the Magic. He is averaging 29.3 DKPs in his last 5 games, with his lowest in that stretch being a 26.25 DK outing. Ross has established a relatively stable floor for himself. Given the matchup today against the Oladipo-less Pacers, he makes for an excellent low-owned play. While better suited for GPP, he’s viable in hybrid lines as well.
Bogdan Bogdanovic (6800/6000): Bogdan Bogdanovic is a little pricey, but there’s no denying his upside. An argument could be made he is fairly priced on both sites. He has a very high floor, making him viable in all formats against a defensively challenged Cavs team.
GPP PLAYS
Richaun Holmes (5100/4200): Holmes started last night and promptly underperformed. Tonight is the night to go back to him in a plus matchup and at lower ownership. Holmes is better off the bench and the matchup with the Heat sans Whiteside is just too juicy to pass up. He’ll have an opportunity to gobble rebounds and block shots all night. Love him in GPPs on both sites.
Kelly Olynyk (5100/4000): Olynyk has finally shown some of his upside in the last 3 games, averaging 29.5 FDPs in that span. He is fairly priced on FD, but it appears DK hasn’t received the memo yet. Add in the phenomenal matchup against the “can’t even accurately describe” Suns team, you can expect Olynyk to aim for his ceiling. Excellent GPP play alongside Adebayo or as a pivot from him.
Nerlens Noel (4200/3500): Noel has quietly been doing work off the bench for the Thunder. He doesn’t get a lot of minutes, but he has produced extremely well with what he gets. Today in a game which could be over by the end of the 3rd, Noel could potentially see increased minutes. This is what we look for in GPPs especially on FD with the drop-score format. Noel could see 25+ minutes in a blowout and threaten the 40-burger territory tonight. He’s a great GPP punt on both sites.
Those are your Sixth Men for today. Good luck out there tonight!
