Luka Doncic has liked what he’s seen from new teammate Christian Wood so far. “He’s a great player,” Doncic said. “He listens to us. He accepts his role, and he’s just doing amazing stuff out there. It’s only two games, but he’s going to be very good for us.” Those two had a +26 net rating on the court together prior to Tuesday’s game, and it sounds like Dallas may consider moving Wood into the starting lineup. “We’ll look at a 10-game stretch, maybe,” head coach Jason Kidd said. “We can’t do two games and figure that’s the way we’re going to roll. You don’t get enough data.”
Brooklyn Nets DFS Spin
Kyrie Irving hit 9-of-21 shots and 9-of-10 free throws for 27 points, nine rebounds, one assist and one steal in 39 minutes of Monday’s loss to the Bucks. Irving had all nine of his boards in the first quarter setting a career-high for rebounding in one quarter, but missed all seven of his 3-pointers and finished with a season-low one dime. He’s scored between 27 and 37 points in each of his last three games and the rest of his stats should follow, but he had a weird line tonight. The Nets are now 1-3 on the season despite Kevin Durant scoring 33 against the Bucks tonight.
