Zion Williamson (right posterior hip, low back contusion) is considered questionable to play against the Suns on Friday after going through practice on Thursday. Naji Marshall started in Zion’s place against Dallas, with Larry Nance Jr. coming off the bench. Both scored in double figures, but neither had a great outing for fantasy managers. If Zion misses another game, both should have a solid opportunity, but it’s hard to justify streaming them outside of deeper leagues. As soon as Williamson returns to the lineup, both will lose the majority of their value.
Phoenix Suns DFS Spin
Devin Booker stayed hot on Tuesday with another 30-point game, this time finishing with 34 points, seven dimes, three steals and three triples in a 134-105 blowout of the Warriors. Booker has scored 33, 35 and 34 in each of his last three games and has hit at least 50 percent of his shots in three of his four, the only exception being his 11-of-23 effort on Friday in an overtime loss to the Blazers. He’s on fire and had season-highs in steals and free throws made tonight.
