We have just a three game slate on Thursday starting at 8:00 pm et. We hit the ground running with Golden State visiting Houston, while the Nuggets will host the Hawks as 12 point favorites, then the night-cap will be the Spurs on a back-to-back against the Clippers.
Let’s take an entirely too-early look at the building blocks for the November 15th main slate. More times than not, starting lineup announcements, breaking news, injuries, rest, etc. will affect the value of these plays and impact your roster construction. But, the sooner we can get a feel for the slate and the optimal build, the better.

Cash Plays
Jamal Murray hasn’t done much since dropping 48 points on the Celtics 10 days ago. His DraftKings price was $6900 that game, spiked to $7500 the next game, but has sunk to $6500 tonight as his output sputters in the mid-20s fp. A home matchup against a horrible defensive team should be what the doctor ordered to get Murray back to hitting value. The Hawks are allowing a whopping +8.5 to point guards. This seems like a very good buy-low, paced up vs. a bad defense combination. As a double-digit favorite with big time blowout risk, I still like Murray’s chances to pay off his salary even if it’s only over three quarters.
Alex Len hit the injury report and is listed questionable. Dedmon has been ruled out. Justin Anderson is out. There are minutes and usage available down low for the Hawks. The problem is the likely candidates stink and John Collins was upgraded, but only to now doubtful. If Collins somehow makes his season debut tonight, I’m locking & loading. Without Collins, we’re looking at Spellman, Poythress, and Miles Plumlee manning the paint for Atlanta. I didn’t watch the game against the Warriors, but looking at the stats I’m pretty sure Spellman missed the team bus or something. Keep an eye on the updates and if you get a line on which of the remaining bigs is slotted for 20+ minutes, you could have a decent value on your hands.
GPP Plays
Draymond Green is questionable with a sprained toe. There’s no word on whether the toe was sprained in an attempt to shove his foot somewhere up Kevin Durant. If you pivoted to Jonas Jerebko after it was announced he would start in Tuesday’s game against Atlanta, you were rewarded handsomely. Jerebko put up a double double over 24 minutes scoring 36.75 DraftKings points, paying off 11x on his $3300 DK salary. He bumps up to $3900 tonight on both sites. If Draymond misses, and definitely if JJ draws the start, he’s a plug & play.

- NBA – 120 lineups per month
- MLB – 120 lineups per month
- NHL – 120 lineups per month
- Golf – 16 lineups per month
- NFL – 16 lineups per month
- NASCAR – 8 lineups per month
- UFC – 2 per event
We also do some Showdown, Playoffs and small slate GPP lineups in addition. All of this for one low price! Contact us at HammerDFS@gmail.com or on Twitter @HammerDFS.

As always, be sure to check for NBA fantasy updates and news before lock. This article is often written before the previous night’s games even finish, so a lot can, and will, change. Be diligent and follow-up accordingly.
