NBA DFS Daily Plays - Monday, 3/2 (DraftKings, FanDuel and Yahoo)
NBA DFS (Monday, March 2)
Here is the "Wilt Scored 100" 58th anniversary edition of SI Fantasy's NBA DFS daily plays.
We start this NBA week with a seven-game main slate for DFS players. As far as injuries go, the Mavericks could be without Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis at Chicago. The Cavs have three or four injured players, but nothing major. Khris Middleton could be out for the Bucks who are playing in Miami. LaMarcus Aldridge will be out for the Spurs. The Grizzlies and Hawks game in Atlanta has the highest implied total on the slate.
SG/SF DeMar DeRozan, San Antonio Spurs
DraftKings: $7,300, FanDuel: $7,500, Yahoo: $38
DeRozan has been locked in lately while LaMarcus Aldridge is out. DeRozan is playing a ton of minutes and stuffing the stat sheet on a nightly basis.
C Jonas Valanciunas, Memphis Grizzlies
DraftKings: $6,800, FanDuel: $7,200, Yahoo: $26
JV is an underrated member of this young Grizzlies roster. He is coming off back-to-back 20 rebound games. Look for him to shine again tonight vs. the Hawks, who rank dead last vs. opposing big men.

PG/SG Collin Sexton, Cleveland Cavaliers
DraftKings: $6,000, FanDuel: $5,500, Yahoo: $20
Sexton has been playing very well since the All-Star break. Collin is seeing big minutes and racking up fantasy points. He has scored over 30 fantasy points in five of the last seven games. Utah has been vulnerable on defense as of late so Sexton could be in for a big night.
PF Carmelo Antony, Portland Trail Blazers
DraftKings: $5,600, FanDuel: $5,600, Yahoo: $21
Melo has been playing a ton of minutes due to the Damian Lillard injury (groin). However, he has not been hitting three-point shots, so his price is falling. That's why I think Melo is a value play tonight.
PG/SG Jeff Teague, Atlanta Hawks
DraftKings: $3,300, FanDuel: $3,700, Yahoo: $10
Teague is one of the most consistent bench players in the NBA. He has been very nice recently. Teague doesn't play much, but he can give you 25 fantasy points in under 25 minutes. The Hawks have the highest implied point total on this evening's slate, so I really like his chances.
