Memphis Grizzlies DFS Spin
Ja Morant finished with 34 points (8-for-22 FGs), three rebounds, six assists, one steal and three triples in a 125-108 loss to Phoenix. In an otherwise ugly game for Memphis, Ja was the only player that was able to get anything going offensively. He still posted a -23, which speaks to how badly the Suns truly beat the Grizzlies in this game. Ja isn’t having the same season that he had last year, but he’s still been able to pour in the points night in and night out. He also hit 15 of his 16 attempts from the free throw line, which is an excellent night, considering he is shooting 74.5% over the course of the season.
Toronto Raptors DFS Spin
Fred VanVleet (back spasms) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Grizzlies. VanVleet left Tuesday’s game during the second half with lower back tightness, and he is deemed questionable for tomorrow. If VanVleet is ruled out of the contest, Gary Trent Jr. will likely enter the starting lineup and see increased minutes. GTJ is already rostered in 80% of Yahoo leagues, and there isn’t a great streaming option beyond him.
