San Antonio Spurs DFS Spin
Devin Vassell played 35 minutes in Tuesday’s 117-110 loss to the Blazers, tallying 21 points (7-of-15 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block, and four 3-pointers in 35 minutes. San Antonio could not hold off Portland, but the team had to be encouraged by Vassell bouncing back from a rough Monday night (six points in a loss to Golden State). He’s scored 21 points or more in three of the last four games and provides 5th-round, per-game value in 9-cat formats. That’s greater value than Keldon Johnson, who boasted a higher Yahoo ADP (71 to Vassell’s 84). Johnson also played better on Tuesday, recording 20 points, five rebounds, five assists, two steals, and four 3-pointers in 34 minutes. With the Spurs having three more games this week, Vassell and Johnson will help some fantasy managers win their weekly matchups on volume alone.
Sacramento Kings DFS Spin
Domantas Sabonis finished with 17 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, a steal and a block in Tuesday’s big win over Brooklyn. Tuesday snapped Sabonis’ three-game streak of 20 points, but he delivered another strong all-around performance in the win. The big man has averaged 22.3 points, 12.3 rebounds and 6.7 assists across his last six contests, and his fantasy value has gotten a big boost from his improved passing this season, and his assist numbers are rivaling the ones he produced in his prime with the Pacers.
