San Francisco Dons DFS Spin
Julian Rishwain will miss the remainder of the 2022-23 season after suffering a torn right ACL, MCL and PCL, college basketball journalist Rocco Miller reports. Rishwain began the season as a starter for USF before getting demoted to a reserve back on Dec. 17, but had still been seeing roughly 20 mpg in the games leading up to injury. The serious knee tear apparently happened in a Jan. 12 game against Portland — just five days after posting a season-best 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting. With Rishwain sidelined, it appears Marcus Williams will be the next man up for the Dons, with Justin Bieker also filling in in a lesser capacity. Rishwain is scheduled to undergo surgery, and his availability for the start of 2023-24 is unclear given the comprehensive ligament damage.
Gonzaga Bulldogs DFS Spin
Drew Timme notched 23 points (8-14 FG, 7-9 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 38 minutes during Saturday’s 78-70 OT loss to Saint Mary’s. After scoring just 23 points combined in his last two games, Timme put up his third 20-plus point effort since the calendar turned to 2023. While it wasn’t enough to pick up the road win, Timme remains one of the best fantasy assets in the nation. He’s on pace for career bests in scoring (21.2 ppg), rebounding (7.5 rpg), assists (3.4 apg) and minutes played (32.8 mpg).
