Let's get to it.

Let's get to it.

You are Lockdown Fantasy, your daily NBA fantasy podcast, part of the Lockdown Podcast

Network, your team, every day.

Hello and welcome to the Lockdown Fantasy Basketball Podcast brought to you by basketball

monster.

My name is Josh Lloyd and I run the Yellowstone National Park TikTok account.

Today's episode is brought to you by Fangil during the tournament.

Fangil is offering $300 back in bonus bets every day for 10 days.

Go to Fangil.com to get started.

Alright, we're talking Friday, we're talking streaming options.

It's 10 games on.

You should be able to fit somebody on to an active roster without benching one of your

existing players and you should be able to do that for the rest of the week.

So let's get that cheese, let's get that bread, let's get that dough, let's get that

whatever, I don't know, something, something, talking about something.

Should we look ahead?

We should.

The games start at 7 p.m.

And who is in that first game I hear you ask, the first game of the day is the Clippers

at the Paces and that is at 7 p.m.

And that is the only 7 p.m. game.

We do have a couple of 7 30 p.m. games, the Heat at the Caves and the Hawks at the Celtics.

Then we have a couple of 8 p.m. games, the Rockets and Grizzlies, that's 8 p.m. Easton

of course, Rockets at Grizzlies, Bulls at Thunder, 8 30 p.m. we go Pelicans and Raptors,

9 p.m. Jazz, Nuggets and then 7 p.m. Pacific.

We go Dallas, Portland, Washington and Golden State and then finishing with the 7 30 p.m.

Pacific time game, Brooklyn and the Lakers.

If you look at these games where are the risky, rusty, tanky, blow-outy games, is the

first one Clippers Paces or the Paces can keep it close and I do think that after this

one we might see a little bit more from them in terms of being able to play their two

way guys and we'll see what they do but that's after this game.

The next one of those games it's going to be a Warrior's Rockets Grizzlies, the Rockets

test we need to win the Grizzlies are bad so that could be a disaster game.

The Jazz and Nuggets obviously, the Jazz are bad but look they can be frisky I think

Denver will cook them but it's one of those ones where Utah doesn't need to sit guys

most likely to be able to put together the loss there after and then Wizards Warriors

but honestly the Warriors are so bad at the moment that this game might actually stay

close which actually might be bad for the Wizards, they might have to sit guys to preserve

the loss and the nets are going to get absolutely smashed by the Lakers so there are a few games

with some concerns there.

The first game is Clippers Paces, I've got Jalen Slawson listed doubtful here, this will

be the final game that he is required to miss.

Now I don't know whether he's doubtful or not but I think that again my thought on this

and based on the things that they've said is that they are trying to get their two way

guys into full eligibility status and they've done it with Peter and Thompson and I think

they'll do it with Slawson and then they'll be able to roll the final eight games of the

season so I don't think Jalen will play here, Jordan Miller, Mr. Laskayne for the Clippers

I'll put him questionable, maybe Kauai pops up as well, don't know, Heat Caves, injury wise

here, I, ooh Jalen did get upgraded, he got upgraded to questionable so that's a positive

step, Jalen Tyson and Dean Wade are out, Max Strus is playing, okay, Max Strus is playing,

that's interesting, oh no hang on, that's the, what, what about that, no, yeah, Strus is

playing, okay, yeah of course it makes sense, I was getting confused because I thought that

they were going to sit him on the back to back Strus so he could play against Miami but

they played maybe two games at all, so he did sit the last game against Miami and he's

back for this one, my bad, Jalen Tyson out, Dean Wade out, Jared Allen questionable,

on Miami they dropped in a homie Huck is, questionable tag so be aware of that, not that

he is a roster supplier at this point, Hawks and the Celtics, Jalen Brown, Maximum Derrick

White and the Pustel, the nut that I may have skated are all questionable so I'm going

to guess that Boston sort of targeting this game is a bit of a rest game, this is also

we've got the situation coming up soon with Jason Tatum perhaps sitting a back-to-back

coming up so I think that they might be getting some rest in for some of these guys and

then we'll see they just got to obviously preserve themselves and be healthy hitting into

the playoffs, so don't be surprised at least two of those three sit, I've got the Bucket

Johnny Kaminga listed as probably all there, he's not on the injury port so he'll play that

was more just a tag that I put on there, understanding that it's the first of a back-to-back and

maybe he sits one of them and will probably be the game on Saturday, Rockets Grizzlies the

next game, this is the first of a back-to-back for Memphis, I think that tied your own

milk and the chicken said you're coward, go go go go go go go play and then sit on Saturday

and I think that Jimmy Mashack and Jaylen Wells and Ryan Repair will not repair is in the

two-way contract issue scenario so with Mashack who's also dealing with an injury and I think

that if Jerome and Cowell played those guys a little sit here and then maybe they're available

on Saturday would be my guess, the Rockets are pretty injury free, Bulls and Thunder we

know that Jaylen Smith and Jayden Ivy got ruled out for the season but what we don't

know at this point is whether BDNR is available or Anthony Simons, I just I don't want them

to bring Simons back it's going to make things a lot more complicated but I'm sure he will.

Richards would have low-end big-man streaming value but I sort of hope that he doesn't

play so that gives way more opportunity for Leonard Miller, I think what'll happen is

like Isaac Acoro will start and Miller won't start, it'll be Buzellus that moves back

to the four but just losing a lot of Biggs does help Leonard's value and he's way higher

upside than what old mate BDNR is, the Pelicans and the Raptors, Emmanuel quickly has been

ruled out again with his planter fascia, I think you can drop him, I don't know when he's

coming back but it's just too much uncertainty around it so drop him, that's okay at this

time of the year because he might be in and out, miss games, the limited minutes, who

knows, you have to make, sometimes you have to make tough calls on that, I don't believe

the Dejonte Murray will play on Friday, he's sitting, he's playing Thursday I think you'd

be out on Friday, at the moment I don't know about Kenneth Murphy III, he is still questionable

for Thursday so I'll put him questionable here on this one.

Next game, Jaz and Nuggets, Kionte George, we don't really expect him to come back this

season, Bryce Sensible, rest of the last game so he should be available but I do not

think that is our collier plays and Kyle Filipowski, touch and go whether he's available with

his illness but it is against the Nuggets that don't really need to sit guys in order

to guarantee a loss, Aaron Gordon sat the last game on the back to back so he should

be available and returning, Mavericks, Trail Blazers, Dan Gafford out again, Caleb Martin

out again, Deep Aliq's Tyler Smith is getting some rotation minutes and he is available

whereas John Policatus is not going to play, he's been getting some minutes there too,

with Gafford out it's more for Peter Washington to do, it's a little bit of Dwight Powell

Streamy stuff but not all that exciting, well a bit crachy dealing with a car issue they

just won't rule him out for multiple games and I don't really know why, Wizards and Warriors

Steph and Hawford are going to be out here, don't know about Quentin Post and then for the Wizards,

Trey Johnson, Alex Sarr and Tristan Vukchevich are the real important ones, I think Sarr actually

plays but limited minutes Vukchevich I don't know and Johnson, it doesn't really matter,

like Trey Johnson is not good enough to be a 12 team lead guy, Sarr is too limited minutes-wise

in games played to be a 12 team must and Vukchevich needs Sarr out permanently to be a 12 team guy

and to not be hurt and he's not so I'm just avoiding most of those guys on the Washington side of

things, Nets Lakers is the last game of the day, I don't expect Danny Wolf to play, also don't

expect Noah Clowne to play but he might, but that doesn't mean that I expect Josh Minor to play

because I don't know what they're going to do with him, they're all over the shop, no one

try our A missed the last game, he should be back but also don't know and really don't care

and on the Lakers side, Aiton Hutchimura and Smart all missed the last game so I would say there's

decent chances that those guys come back but if they're not then you know that Jackson Hayes

seems to be a guy that has an opportunity to step into a larger role. Spring is a natural

reset point and there are things that can cost businesses, you know this as business people,

me to do that but you can be sick. Should we get in and look at schedule hacks streaming values

that sort of stuff yeah it's the right time of the day to do that. The back-to-backs it's one

team on a second night it is the palikance and we already expect that the jonte Murray is not playing

on friday but then there are four teams that play friday and saturday the hawks so we're watching

for coming up the bulls not too worried about anyone there the grizzlies milk coward whoever else

they decide and the jazz collier not gonna play both from certainly maybe doesn't play any of them

and then not anyone else I'm super super super worried about in terms of sitting there

it gets even more interesting if you're getting chunky if your lead goes through to next week

you can start to make some moves for that because there are eight teams that play three games in

the next four nights so you get the two games in three nights which for this week which yeah that

is the max you get plus you get a head start from Monday the hawks the Celtics the bulls the grizzlies

the heat the thunder the jazz and the wizards so I believe they're about 20 teams that play two

games between friday and sunday but these eight teams give you the advantage of getting an extra

game to start next week so you don't have to make the move to stream somebody for Monday you're

already making sure you've got a Monday player for next week so if you're looking to do that get

your two games in three nights friday through sunday target these eight teams first hawks Celtics

bulls grizzlies heat thunder jazz wizards to give you that little bit of an extra leg up there are

no fives or two so we don't get to sing the song what we can do though is have a look at the back

to back shots the stream options we take on friday to saturday got five names for you now it is

risky and a lot of these guys but that tends to be the case at this time of year price sensible by

expected is back and he plays both games but I don't know Greg Jackson the second in Memphis

Elijah Harklaus for Utah Taylor Hendrix formerly a Utah now of Memphis and Cody Williams

I guess it is conceivable any of those five guys could sit on the second night of a back to back

but they also have by far the most value of players that are available for both games over that back

to back so the risk is there and you need to work out in your particular league where you're

sitting what the matchup looks like how can you can you afford that risk do you need to play

a little safer because that's all going to depend obviously on where you're at let's look at

points league streaming and we'll start with 10 names for the Yahoo points format number one is

Bryce sensible who is a big points league guy big points scorer should get a lot of opportunities

to do that Greg Jackson also a big points guy Elijah Harklaus is probably going to play a lot of

minutes I'm guessing and he's been playing pretty well last season from memory someone fact check

me on this but when the judges were terrible down the stretch Harklaus was on the team and he still

didn't get into games they're like I don't even know I don't even know if we get to do this be it

in play but a little bit different this season so he's improved a lot so maybe there's a little

bit of investment going into Harklaus here Rob Williams is also there and then milk Jerome who's

been dropped in a lot of leagues is down to 28% roster rightfully so he plays every second game so

he get like two games a week out of him max sometimes one but that makes him an elite stream on

a day like this if you're just doing single day stuff Kennedy Chandler still the 10 way 10 days

still going for Chandler so I expect these minutes we are assuming that his air color is out here

by the I'm Gevon Small in Memphis Anthony Melton for the Warriors Jamal Shed with our Emmanuel

quickly out and then again we're going bottom the barrel 0% roster here no offense to bears but

bears and bang 0% roster he's a decent enough Yahoo stream guy if you do ESPN points leagues we

go to Bryce since more again Gees Santos L help we're still available in a lot of ESPN leagues he

should not be step his out Moody's done up for the season obviously so Santos is going to play

a lot of minutes and look very assess it when Steph comes back but I don't know when that is

so let's go with it the Rock DJ Robbie Williams Elijah Harklaus Gigi Jacksonness at ESPN points

stream guys and then five more names Kennedy Chandler risky on a 10 day guy but I think he plays

around 30 James Huff in Indiana he just should be Rossett I think everywhere especially

category leagues the National Tile Jaros Walker hello again just a must-roster player that is not

Gevon Small and Anthony Melton as you're other ESPN points stream guys it's quite a bit of quality

available on ESPN way the wires for you to go and have a look at oh there's workplace chaos there's

responsibly okay okay shall we move on to category league streaming I reckon we probably should

really not much more to do at this stage let's talk about the points category remember I'm

using the basketball monster advanced roster percentage metrics here and that means no one over

60% some one to 45 some under 25 some of the 12s under five Jeremiah Sasha fierce is the top point

streamer working under the assumption that de jonte Murray is out now New Year's Eve miss you

should also get a bump in these games but fears gets should get more usage Elijah Harkler's

doing pretty well you can get double digits scoring at him brand of Williams is always if you don't

like the way Jason kid uses him but maybe he gets 24 and gets 12 to 13 points over top and he's

doing pretty well at the moment a little bit of minutes but all he uses a scorer and then there's

Marvin Bagley which again is low um low upside really it's more of a deeper league play with

gaffer out he's probably not going to start but we can get a low end double double out of him which

means double digit scoring which is useful for some of us for threes it's sam scob it's slamming

Sammy Merrill it's Carlton Bubb Carrington the winter soldier max streus sam house and Lou

daughter somehow snuck his way onto that list he does it threes I'll give you that

but that's a deeply play obviously assists we're going Davie on Mitchell Jamal Shed

Kennedy Chandler Timothy John McConnell and Walter Clayton Jr so not some not bad options there

including a couple of starters in Mitchell and Shed and Chandler who probably plays start as minutes

for steals Elijah Harkler is very good at this he's still ready through the roof

Keon Alice is also good at it the rabbit hunter Alex Crusoe is also very good at it

Lou John Concha if he starts we stream him in everywhere and then Jimmy Watkins also gets

multiple steals consistently in Washington I don't know what they're going to do with Justin

champagne if he's going to play or not or saw or any of those guys and I think leaky black

probably doesn't play so that should help Jimmy Watkins get more opportunities for free throw

percentage cam spencer Walter Clayton Jordan Poole should be in the rotation with Dejante Murray

sitting Kormack Christie and the spiral look canard for rebounds you're going to see a lot of

Rob Williams here Rob Williams Linda Miller Isaiah Jackson who's playing really well and he's

moving into definite twelve team stream discussion Isaiah Jackson Marvin Bagley and then

deeper leagues Oscar Sheeway for blocks it is unsurprisingly Robbie Williams color Mackovich Keon

Alice Isaiah Jackson and Jackson Hayes now the reason that you don't see Eve Missy's name appear

here is that he's rostered in like 81% of advanced we're using our advanced roster metric on

basketball monster I know he's a 60% cutoff so if Eve Missy's available in your league then yeah

he's going to be here because I think he's going to start and play twenty seven minutes

but that's the reason he's only included on these lists

four fuel call percentage that's the rock DJ again Robbie Williams it's Jackson Hayes and Jackson

Hayes would bump up on those list if we knew deon rating was out by the way Marvin Bagley Isaiah

Jackson and Colin Murray Boyle who was pretty good in that last game for the power for the raptors

where he played like twenty four minutes and put up some okay numbers for your guard build points

and threes assists and steals and free throw percentage E.J. Harklaus Given Small and Jamal

shed the old J. S's Walter Clayton and then Zaya Williams who I just wish I had confidence in

him starting because he's been getting steals at such a high level but he could get DMP at any point

and then for Big Men rebounds blocks fuel call percentage and steals Rob Williams

Isaiah Jackson Keon Alice Carlo McEvitch and lastly Lil Jon Conchart

all right that is the end of a streaming show for Friday for the 10 games there you
