“Captain”
Kyle Lowry ($11,400) vs Warriors– Kyle Lowry didn’t have his best shooting night in game 4 going 3/12 from the field but he continued his string of great passing games with 7 assists and it really should have been more. Lowry has 7+ assists in 4 of his last 5 games and when he is able to get his shot going he could put up a lot of points. As my “captain” tonight he is still only $11,400 which is valuable in my opinion and lets me roster another star player. Lowry has done a lot on the offensive and defensive end for this Toronto team and I think they will come out strong looking to close out this series at home.
Standard Play
Kawhi Leonard ($12,000) vs Warriors– Kawhi took over again in game 4 scoring 36 PTS with 12 REBs and 4 STLs. This was good for a series high 68 FPTS for him and he showed no signs of fluttering in the spot light leading in a big 2nd half for Toronto. He hasn’t scored less than 54.75 FPTS in the last 3 games vs the Warriors and over the last 4 games he has been shooting it great from behind that arc at a 40% clip. Not much needs to be said about what Kawhi brings to the table on both ends of the floor so even as the most expensive player on tonight’s slate I have no issues laying it.
Standard Play
Kevon Looney ($5,600) vs Raptors– Looney surprised everyone by coming back to play in game 4 and once again did what he does best scoring 10 PTS with 6 REB in only 20 minutes of action. Looney has been great on the glass in these playoffs off the bench and has feasted off inside looks from Draymond Green. Looney won’t give you high point scoring games but he does the dirty work on this team that is lacking it. In his last 3 full** games Looney has averaged 23.1 FPPG and even if KD returns tonight I think Looney will come out and reach his value playing around 20-25 minutes.
Standard Play
Serge Ibaka ($5,000) vs Warriors– Serge finally had his breakout game that I was waiting all series for scoring 20 PTS with 4 REB which was good for 30.5 FPTS. That is now 3 straight games for the bench big where he put up 24+ FPTS. At only $5,000 we don’t need a lot from Ibaka for him to have value but I think he offers a higher ceiling than most think. He showed us in game 4 that he can knock down shots and his defense has been superb as he comes into this one averaging 2.3 BPG and 1.0 SPG in the last 4 games against the Warriors. He likely won’t see more playing time in this one but he has been incredibly active in his limited time in this series.
