Brooklyn Nets DFS Spin
Ben Simmons recorded a triple-double on Tuesday with 10 points (4-for-10 FGs), 10 rebounds, 11 assists, four steals, two blocks and seven turnovers in a 106-98 loss to the Spurs. With both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant out for this game, Simmons did what the Nets hoped he would be doing consistently when they traded for him. The seven turnovers weren’t pretty, but they showed that he was being aggressive. He provided value across the board and took over the game. He shot 2-for-7 in the first quarter, which was way more aggressive than he has been this season. Over the past week, he has provided third round value, which is what they needed with KD out for an extended period of time.
Utah Jazz DFS Spin
Mike Conley posted solid numbers against the Clippers on Wednesday with 17 points (6-for-8 FGs), four rebounds, nine assists, one block, five threes and zero turnovers. Conley has been such a quiet contributor this season. He has been outside the top-100 in per-game 9-cat value, but he’s among the best at providing assists while limiting turnovers. He’s 11th in the NBA in assists per game at 7.5, yet he only averages 1.6 turnovers, while everyone above him averages at least 2.0. Over his last three games, he has 23 assists and zero turnovers. He can also provide value from deep, like he did in this game, as he tied his season-high for threes.
