Tonight's Solid PG Pick
Damian Lillard gets the Lakers (LAL) at home once again. The LAL are giving up 47.4 Fantasy Points to the PG position, putting them 28th in the league for FPTS given up at the position. These two teams met previously on January 5th and January 10th. Lillard totaled 41 PTS, 13 REBs, 16 ASTs, 1blk, and 4 turnovers totaling 78.6 FPTS between both meetings. He played an average of 33 ½ minutes between each game (1 H/1 A), which totals 2 minutes below his average of 35 ½ minutes per game. He did exceed his average during the home game by about a half a minute, scoring 40 FPTS. Being that Damian is from Oakland, he always seems to be solid against the LAL. His Usage Rating of 31.2 and Versatility Index of 10.2 are among the highest in the NBA. At $8300 he doesn’t break the bank and is a nice fit into a solid lineup. Look for him to post another solid 40 FPT performance tonight against an LAL team that is on the skid.
