Golden State Warriors DFS Spin
Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 28 points (8-for-16 FGs), two rebounds, four assists, one steal, seven triples and six turnovers in a 115-104 loss to Cleveland on Sunday. Per usual, Steph carried the majority of the offensive load for Golden State in this game. Even at the age of 35, Curry is still one of the best players in the league. He has been lethal for fantasy managers so far this season.
More often than not, Curry was drafted between picks six and eight. Still, that has been great value so far this season, as he has produced top four value in 9-cat leagues. Steph is expected to play the second night of a back-to-back against Detroit on Monday. However, with how many veterans they have, it’s hard to say who will see a minutes boost if he were to sit. Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody and Cory Joseph should be the main three to benefit.
Detroit Pistons DFS Spin
Marcus Sasser amassed 22 points (9-of-16 FGs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four 3-pointers in 30 minutes in Sunday’s 120-106 loss to the Suns. With Jaden Ivey (illness) ruled out for a second consecutive game and Alec Burks (forearm) still sidelined, Sasser was again the first guard off the bench for the Pistons.
He seemingly improves by the game. The 22 points were a new high for a rookie, who scored 19 in Thursday’s loss to the Pelicans. Given how well Sasser has been playing, the eventual returns of Ivey and Burks may not have much of an impact on his minutes or opportunities. Despite providing top 100 per-game value in 9-cat formats, he’s rostered in just 8% of Yahoo leagues. With the Pistons playing four games in Week 3, now is a good time to add Sasser if he’s on your league’s waiver wire.
