Dunkest NBA Fantasy Tips, R12: Paul George’s redemption

Everything you need for Round 12 of Dunkest NBA Fantasy. From fantasy basketball tips, position by position:

Guards

Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers, 14.5 cr)

For the first time this season, Darius Garland will take the court without his former Jazz teammate, Donovan Mitchell, by his side. Last year, in Mitchell’s absence, Garland showed a significant boost in his Fantabasket performance. We’re confident he’ll do the same again this time. All aboard!

Austin Reaves (Los Angeles Lakers, 12.1 cr)

Coach JJ Redick’s decision to bring D’Angelo Russell off the bench has increased Austin Reaves’ offensive responsibilities, with him running the Lakers’ offense for long stretches of the game. The result has been Austin scoring over 30 Dunkest points in three of the last four games, and he’s ready to impress against the Jazz, the bottom team in the Western Conference.

Forwards

Paul George (Philadelphia 76ers, 14 cr)

Paul George has been one of the biggest disappointments in Dunkest, and not just this season, with his price dropping by one and a half credits. The game against the Miami Heat is already crucial for turning the Sixers’ season around, and we’re sure PG won’t miss this opportunity to step up.

Tari Eason (Houston Rockets, 8.6 cr)

The Rockets’ forward’s season is the perfect opposite of George’s, with his price rising by over one credit due to increasingly solid and convincing performances. Even coming off the bench, the reliable Tari brings great energy and a solid contribution in points, rebounds, steals, and blocks. We’re confident: it will be the same against the Chicago Bulls.

Center

Alperen Sengun (Houston Rockets, 16 cr)

The Turkish center of the Rockets comes off a triple-double performance that earned over 50 Dunkest points for his fantasy owners, and we’re backing him again in this 12th game, where he faces the Chicago Bulls. The Illinois team is actually the second-worst NBA defense and the worst for points allowed in the paint to their opponents.

Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons, 12.5 cr)

The #0 of the Pistons, after a strong start to the season, has been slightly declining, partly due to foul trouble limiting his playing time. However, the game against the Washington Wizards is the perfect opportunity for a rebound. Trust in Duren, who last season put up two 50-point performances against the “Wizards.”

Coach

Mike Brown (Sacramento Kings, 8.5 cr)

For the first pick, we trust in the experience of Mike Brown, who needs to bounce back from the home loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves despite De’Aaron Fox’s 60-point performance. Sabonis and his teammates have a good chance to come out on top against the Atlanta Hawks, who are dealing with multiple injuries and playing their second game of a back-to-back.

JJ Redick (Los Angeles Lakers, 8.1 cr)

The rookie coach of the Los Angeles Lakers has surprised everyone with an exciting style of play and solid results, allowing the Lakers to comfortably stay in playoff contention. The home game against the struggling Utah Jazz, who are at the bottom of the Western Conference, should not present any major challenges.
