Detroit Pistons DFS Spin
Cade Cunningham played 32 minutes in Friday’s 130-106 loss to the Knicks, scoring 15 points (6-of-16 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs) with eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer. Cunningham shot just 31.4% from three as a rookie, with most of that damage being done early in the season. Well, he’s gotten off to a slow start this season, shooting 3-of-12 from beyond the arc in the Pistons’ first two games. Cunningham did shoot 40% from three during his lone season at Oklahoma State, but this isn’t college. He does so many other things on the court that the 3-point shooting isn’t a major concern, but improving may be what ensures that Cunningham makes good on his Yahoo ADP (32.5) come season’s end.
Washington Wizards DFS Spin
Bradley Beal scored a team-high 27 points on 11-of-16 shooting during Sunday’s OT loss in Cleveland, adding five dimes, four rebounds, two steals and six turnovers in 42 minutes. Beal said recently that he’s happy to defer to teammates offensively this season, and he’s been asking coach Wes Unseld Jr. to give him challenging defensive matchups. “I’ll still go off for 30, 40 and 50 [points] if I need to,” Beal said. “[But] I have teammates who can score the ball and make plays too.” He could have been a bit more selfish tonight, though most fantasy managers won’t take issue with this stat line. Beal also took a hard fall on his wrist(s) late in this game, but shook it off to continue playing — we’ll let you know if he pops up on the injury report.
