Dream11 NBA Picks: Awesemo Grades | April 9

PG Russell Westbrook – 21 Credits, 51.93 Projected Fantasy Points

According to Awesemo’s projections, no other player is expected to have more fantasy points tonight than Westbrook. This particular matchup against the Warriors is one that he knows well, especially from his time with the Thunder. Now, as a member of the Wizards, Westbrook is putting up those same huge numbers.

Over the last seven games, Westbrook has posted six triple-doubles. He has done this before with him as the regular season starts coming to a close. Washington is a handful of games out of the playoff picture, so Westbrook will do everything in his power to make sure his team makes it to the second season. The Warriors are only 4.5-point favorites tonight at home against the Wizards, and that lends some optimism to the idea that Westbrook will have another huge night.

SG Caris LeVert – 9 Credits, 35.81 Projected Fantasy Points

As the Pacers are racking up the injuries, and his health increases, LeVert is piling up the minutes with his new team. As of noon ET, the Pacers will be without Myles Turner and have both Domantas Sabonis and Malcolm Brogdon listed as questionable.

LeVert has played well since his joining the team in mid-March. However, peak LeVert has really only emerged once in that span, going for 28 points and contributing in different areas of the stat sheet in a game against the Pistons on March 24. Two of Indianapolis’ last four games have come on the back end of back-to-back sets. Quite simply, LeVert and the rest of his Pacers teammates have been fatigued like no other. Tonight’s matchup against the Magic, which has a bunch of G-League players on the roster, should give LeVert a chance to have his best performance in a Pacers uniform. At only 9 credits, he is still projected to have just as many points as some of the bigger names on Friday’s slate.

PF Robert Williams – 9 Credits, 36.13 Projected Fantasy Points

The last time Williams made this article, he found himself in foul trouble and had a brutal night against the 76ers. However, gamers can expect a big change of fortunes in this fruitful matchup against the NBA’s worst team, the Timberwolves.

Williams relies heavily on blocks and steals, and the Timberwolves can probably help out in this regard. Tonight’s game has a 227.5-point total, making it one of the highest on the slate. Minnesota runs the NBA’s third-fastest pace, so that will undoubtedly translate into Boston’s game plan. Look for Williams to rack up enough fantasy points to make it worthwhile.

C Clint Capela – 16 Credits, 42.48 Projected Fantasy Points

Capela has not yet been written up in this article, and his omission is no longer excusable. His rebounding has simply been too substantial, with at least 14 in 12 of the last 16 games. Tonight’s matchup for the Hawks against the Chicago Bulls is one of the best for any big man. In fact, only one other team in the NBA allows more fantasy points per game to opposing centers. This will be an even tougher battle for the Bulls than usual, considering they will be playing their second game in as many nights and their third road game in four nights. The spread in this matchup is oddly in favor of the Hawks, so it’s possible that Capela will be the biggest catalyst in leading his team to victory.
