Dream11 NBA Picks: Awesemo Grades | March 17

PG Russell Westbrook – 21 Credits, 51.06 Projected Points

For my top point-per-dollar play of the night, I’ll look no further than Westbrook. Awesemo’s projections have him pegged for the third-most fantasy points (51.06) on the slate while coming at a slighter discount than Giannis Antetokounmpo or Nikola Jokic.

The Kings – Wizards game has an absurd total of 245.5 points. With a sky-high number like that, you have to imagine the fantasy points will be attached to this game like no other. Westbrook is a definitive triple-double threat every time he steps on the floor.

SG Kevin Porter – 9 Credits, 39.37 Projected Points
SG Norman Powell – 8 Credits, 35.86 Projected Points

Either Porter or Powell is going to work here considering the ridiculous value that we’re getting on both players. If we have to play the “A or B” game, it’s worth noting that only Porter will be playing his second game in as many nights. He went bananas on the Hawks last night for 22 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 steals in 41 minutes.

Powell didn’t play 41 minutes last night, so there’s certainly a case to be made for him being the better option at this position. It also helps Powell’s case that he has dropped 30 points in four of his last six games.

PF Jerami Grant – 10.5 Credits, 37.68 Projected Points

It’s yet another gorgeous opportunity to get involved in all of this value that we’re accumulating. Grant is clearly the alpha male in the Pistons’ offense, taking control now that literally every piece of notable talent has left The Motor City. This matchup against the Raptors isn’t as bad as we remember historically. Toronto has been ravaged by injuries and COVID protocols this season, making Grant’s outlook all the more optimistic.

C Nicolas Claxton – 4.5 Credits, 23.33 Projected Points

As a Nets fan, I know all too well how bright the future is for Claxton. He has had the chance to learn a ton from Kevin Durant and Brooklyn’s player development staff, and now we’re finally starting to see that fine tuning pay off. I’ve been keeping an eye on Claxton’s games lately where Awesemo’s projections like the lanky lefty, and the results have been spot on.

While Claxton does offer the slate’s best value (5184.4), he is only projected to play 18 minutes. That is the bad news. The good news is that he gets those 18 minutes against an Indiana team allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game to opposing centers. Over his last 10 games, Claxton has had a few slate-turning performances.

Also Consider: Christian Wood – 10 Credits, 39.99 Projected Points | Richaun Holmes – 11.5 Credits, 41.77 Projected Points
