The Layup Line: Monday, November 18th

    I’m a bit limited at the moment, so I’m going to try to hit the main points for you guys. Also, note that a majority of this slate is on a back-to-back so the lines may shift dramatically during the day when more injury reports come in.

    As for new injury updates…see below.

    Injury Report

     Chicago Bulls @ Detroit Pistons

    Game Time: 7:00 pm ET

    DraftKings Lines

    CHI -4 (-112), DET +4 (-108)
    Game Total 234

    Key Storylines

    Coby White gets steals now?: Well, I noticed he has a 1.9 steals per game yesterday after a subscriber asked a trade question in discord. After zero steals on Sunday, he’s back down to 1.4 per game. That would still double his 0.7 per game last season, but it’s a small sample size and steals are the most variable category on a week-to-week and year-to-year basis. A few more zero-steal games could put him back into his previous bracket.

    Keep an eye on the centers: Even while shooting 79.6% from the field, Jalen Duren is underperforming as foul trouble and injuries have limited him to 24.6 MPG so far. It seemed like Isaiah Stewart was going to start on Sunday night based on some reporting, but then they backtracked and started Duren. Stewart played 26 minutes to Duren’s 18, and while it was a blowout, no other starter played fewer than 28 minutes. We are always looking out for more Ausar Thompson updates too.

    Stream of the Game

    Malik Beasley for points, 3s and (maybe) more since he fancies himself a rebounder now.

    Alternatives: Patrick Williams, Ayo Dosunmu, Isaiah Stewart, Tim Hardaway Jr. – if he returns from his injury

    Jalen Smith, Matas Buzelis in deep formats, Simone Fontecchio if he plays the b2b after returning
