Phoenix Suns DFS Spin
Chris Paul provided 20 points, 12 assists, five rebounds, a steal, three triples and six turnovers in Friday’s 113-104 loss to the Raptors. Paul continues to shine, as he’s taken on an increased offensive workload with Devin Booker on the sidelines. Over his last 10 games, CP3 has averaged 17 points and nine dimes, taking a small step back as a facilitator and adding some more scoring to his game. He’s also posted 1.6 swipes and 0.6 blocks in that span, making him an elite option even as he approaches age 40. We’ll continue to roll with Paul as he does his best to buoy a floundering Phoenix team that’s slowly slipping down the Western Conference standings.
New York Knicks DFS Spin
Jalen Brunson (right hip soreness) is listed as questionable for Monday’s matchup with Houston. Brunson has missed their last three games, all of which he has been listed as questionable initially. Immanuel Quickley and Miles McBride have both started lately with both Brunson and RJ Barrett out. If Brunson is back, one of them will return to the bench, though with the way Tom Thibodeau has ran the rotation lately, both guys should still play big minutes.
