Here are theScore's sample Squad Up lineups for Saturday, Jan. 14:
50-50 Lineup
POS | NAME | OPPONENT | FPPG | SALARY |
---|---|---|---|---|
PG | T.J. McConnell (PHI) | at WAS | 17.5 | 59K |
SG | Danny Green (SA) | at PHO | 17.2 | 40K |
SF | Gordon Hayward (UTA) | vs. ORL | 36.0 | 78K |
PF | Julius Randle (LAL) | at LAC | 30.1 | 71K |
C | Tyson Chandler (PHO) | vs. SA | 23.5 | 52K |
This lineup isn't exactly filled with star power, but each player has a balanced game with a solid matchup. McConnell has shown improved passing ability of late. Green takes on the Suns' poor perimeter defense. Hayward's dynamic ability insures his owners against a complete bust. Randle takes on a Clippers team still missing PF Blake Griffin. Chandler is averaging 18 rebounds per game over his last four outings.
Tournament Lineup
POS | NAME | OPPONENT | FPPG | SALARY |
---|---|---|---|---|
PG | Chris Paul (LAC) | vs. LAL | 42.1 | 95K |
SG | Bradley Beal (WAS) | vs. PHI | 33.2 | 80K |
SF | Joe Johnson (UTA) | vs. ORL | 14.7 | 25K |
PF | Markieff Morris (WAS) | vs. PHI | 24.9 | 63K |
C | Dewayne Dedmon (SA) | at PHO | 14.8 | 33K |
There's even more weight on Paul's shoulders as a distributor with Griffin out. Speaking of absent All-Star hopefuls, Beal and Morris' ceilings will rise if PG John Wall (wrist) is ruled out. Johnson is a boom-or-bust player at this point, but he has still shown 20-point scoring potential with some frequency. Dedmon is averaging 8.7 points and 9.7 rebounds over his past three games.
