Key Storylines

Lineup change? – Sacramento Bee reporter Jason Anderson is reporting that Kevin Huerter is probably going to replace Chris Duarte in the starting lineup. This is based on him wearing the designated starters jersey in practice, so nothing official has been announced yet. But signs do point toward Huerter getting the start. On a shallow slate, managers can stream Huerter with his expected increased role. Also, playing the Pistons will always add value to the dudes who play significant minutes against them.

Cade Cunningham – the news could have been worse as it is reported he is going to be reevaluated in 7-10 days for his strained left knee. Overall there is not an absolute “must-roster” dude. Jaden Ivey will probably get more usage but he is at 50% rostered. Killian Hayes got extra burn when Cunningham went down but he is probably best left as a deep league option. Alec Burks has hit an insane 3.3 triples per game in his last seven games and will get more chances with Cunningham out.

Stream of the Game

Against the Pistons, I would recommend the previously mentioned Huerter. Harrison Barnes is also an option due to the matchup. Trey Lyles is also available and can be a specialist stream for efficient scoring and triples.

I grew up in Crosby, TX, just about 30 minutes east of Houston, TX. Yes, I am a major Houston Astros fan, and love my Texans and Rockets.

I graduated Crosby High School in 2006 (Go Coogs!) and attended San Jacinto College (Go Gators!) before attending and graduating from Texas Tech in 2012 (Go Tech!). I got my degree in journalism.

Throughout my academic life I was on some form of debate team, and it was the greatest experience of my academic career.

Now I couldn’t be more happier. Sports Ethos is allowing to me to live a life long dream: to be a sports writer.
