It’s Friday and we’ve got a 10 game slate to say goodbye to February! The main slate has eight games, with special emphasis on the Cavs @ Celtics clash at the top of the East and the high-paced games of OKC @ Atlanta and Knicks @ Grizzlies, both with an O/U of 244.5! But the fun doesn’t stop there! Can the Nuggets bounce back after a loss to the Bucks yesterday, against a red-hot Pistons team? And what about Tyrese Haliburton? Can he sustain his recent high-level of play against the new-look Miami Heat? There’s a lot more to get to, so let’s get right into it!

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
Position: PG
Salary: $10,700
54/47/85. These are Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s shooting splits since the All-Star break. Can he sustain them against the Hawks? Well, on the surface, All-Defense candidate Dyson Daniels seems to pose a big problem for the MVP favourite. But looking closely at the numbers, we can see that the Hawks allow the 2nd best fg% and 4th most 3s to opposing PGs and the 5th most points and 4th most assists to opposing SGs, showing that an elite defensive player can only take your team defense that far, at least fantasy-wise. Looking further, we can also see that the Hawks allow the 5th most attempted free-throws and the 2nd best fg% in the league since January 1st. All things point to an efficient Shai, and that’s a great proposition for your fantasy lineup. Oh, and what did Shai do in his lone game vs. the Hawks this season? 35 points, 11 boards and nine assists.
