Daily Fantasy Sports NBA Friday Breakdown and Preview

Injury Report – Top Daily Fantasy Sports NBA Injuries and Illnesses of Note

-Lebron James, Cleveland Cavaliers (Doubtful)

Lebron James (wrist) is noted as doubtful to see action this Friday against the Sacramento Kings. After taking a ball fall Tuesday versus the Detroit Pistons Lebron was evaluated and treated for a sprained wrist, which caused a DNP on Wednesday against Portland. Cleveland is on the second outing of five games in seven nights, so James may be given more time to rest. Look for James to sit this one out but it will be worth watching this one up until game time.

3 Friday Daily Fantasy Sports Matchup's To Focus On:

Houston @ Boston - Over/Under 206 (HOU -6.5)

Both of these teams are playing thing due to injuries and recent trades which makes for some interesting matchups in this game. While this game looks good for daily fantasy sports points on paper it is important to note that these two teams have really been spreading out the minutes, shots and scoring. There are only a select few players that may really have a chance to shine in this possibly high scoring but high variance game when it comes to individual player performance.

Houston Players To Watch:

James Harden

Boston Players To Watch:

Jared Sullinger

Avery Bradley

Minnesota @ Philadelphia - Over/Under 192.5 (MIN -3.5)

While this should be a lower scoring game due to Philadelphia's pace teams have been know to run with Minnesota which makes this an intriguing game for daily fantasy sports points. While Minnesota and Philadelphia may be two of the weaker teams in the league they match up well together giving us the lowest point spread of the night which should make for a close game with the starters getting plenty of run. This game might be great chance to pick up some value or often over looked players for our lineups.

Minnesota Players To Watch:

Thaddeus Young

Mo Williams

Gorgui Dieng

Kevin Martin

Cleveland Players To Watch:

Robert Covington

Luc Richard Mbah a Moute

Nerlens Noel

Chicago @ Phoenix - Over/Under 210.5 (PHO -5)

Here we have are highest point total of the day but it will interesting to see how the Chicago Bulls perform after coming off their double overtime win against the Lakers loss night. While no one should be sitting out a back to back for the Bulls it will be prudent to see if the often injured Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler and Joakim Noah are playing after going so many minutes last night. This should be a fast paced game with scoring from everywhere. The stars of both teams get lots of playing time as well so these types of games are always a great opportunity to pick up plenty of daily fantasy points.

Chicago Players To Watch:

Pau Gasol

Joakim Noah

Derrick Rose

Jimmy Butler

Dallas Players To Watch:

Markieff Morris

Goran Dragic

P.J. Tucker
