For my people with DK and not Fanduel, I would do an SGP of Banchero 20+ and Lebron 20+ to reduce the juice. I really like Paolo tonight, but I like him significantly more at a flat 20 so I’m okay drinking juice. Paolo has scored exactly 20 in six games this year including in four of the last 10 games. Paolo has 20+ points in 20/27 games, that’s a 74% hit rate. That is incredible for a rookie.
This is a phenomenal matchup for the young forward. With Anthony Davis sidelined for LA, they should struggle to defend the paint where Paolo makes a living. Banchero will be a mismatch for anyone LA chooses to put in front of him. This is the same Lakers team who just allowed Christian Wood to absolutely dominate them in the paint.
This game has a nice high total of 236 and a close spread of 3.5. This has all the signs of being a winner, we just need Paolo to stay out of foul trouble and get the shots to drop. Paolo is at home where he averages 22.1 points per game, so we’re getting a discount in a great matchup; this feels worth the juice. Let's get this one quick before the line movement continues going against us and let's roll!
