ESPN's fantasy basketball daily cheat sheet is your pregame destination before you set your lineups for that night's games. Here you'll read our best advice for the night, including a selection of players you can stream as well as game-by-game injury reports and player projections.
Friday's massive NBA slate features 10 games, and the matchup I'm most excited about is Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets traveling to California to face Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Golden State has lost nine consecutive games to Denver, and this is a potential matchup in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. One particular bet from this game caught my attention.
As always, let's go through this game and the other matchups to identify some fantasy hoops streaming options and betting angles of interest for Friday's slate.
Friday's fantasy stream team
Sandro Mamukelashvili, PF, San Antonio Spurs (available in 99.4% of ESPN leagues)
Mamukelashvili has been solid off the bench for the Spurs, especially when given extended minutes. He's played 23 or more minutes in two his past three games, scoring 29 or more fantasy points in each game. He has averaged 14 PPG and 11 RPG when playing 25 or more minutes this season. Mamukelashvili is in a good spot to continue his strong production against the Cavaliers.
Dalano Banton, PG/SG/SF, Portland Trail Blazers (99.2%)
Banton is poised to keep a significant role in the Trail Blazers' rotation with Anfernee Simons sidelined. He has put up impressive numbers when on the court, averaging 20.2 points, five rebounds, and 5.6 assists per 40 minutes this season. He faces a Bulls team on Friday that ranks 20th in points allowed per 100 possessions.
Isaiah Collier, PG, Utah Jazz (87.4%)
Even though the Jazz are huge underdogs, Utah should still provide Collier with ample minutes. He has played 30 or more minutes in four straight games, scoring 28 or more fantasy points in three of them. He faces a Pacers team that ranks 11th in points and 9th in assists allowed to point guards.
Moody's favorite bets for Friday
Cade Cunningham to record a double double (-113)
The Pistons have dropped two straight games, and while Cunningham is in the midst of a breakout season, he has missed the last five games with a bruised left calf. With Cunningham back tonight, he has a perfect opportunity to get Detroit back on track, especially against a middle of the pack Raptors defense. He has averaged 25.7 PPG and 9.2 APG and his presence should give the Pistons a much-needed boost.
Kyle Filipowski over 26.5 points and rebounds (-105)
When Walker Kessler out, Filipowski makes the most of his opportunity. He has exceeded this line in five straight games without Kessler and faces a Pacers team ranked fifth in points allowed and fourth in rebounds allowed to power forwards.
Devin Booker to score 30+ points (+130)
The Suns are just one game outside of the Western Conference play-in tournament and are on a four-game losing streak. With Kevin Durant is out with an ankle injury, Phoenix will likely lean heavily on Booker against the Celtics. He should be motivated to bounce back after scoring just 14 points his last time against Boston. In the 14 games he has played without Durant, Booker has averaged 30.5 PPG.
Nikola Jokic to record a triple double (+140)
Jokic returns to the court Friday night to face the Warriors after missing Wednesday's game against the Spurs. The three-time MVP is putting up impressive numbers this season, averaging 29.7 PPG, 12.8 RPG and 10.2 APG. He'll go up against a Warriors team that gives up the fifth most rebounds and 10th most assists per game to centers. Jokic has been dominant recently, averaging of 33.0 PPG, 12.4 RPG and 9.0 APG over his past five games against Golden State.
Thunder at Rockets under 229.5 total (-110)
This will be a fight between two of the most physical teams in the league. Both the Thunder and Rockets are ranked in the top five for defensive rating, so buckets are going to be hard-earned tonight. The total has gone under in four of Oklahoma City's last six games. Houston boasts a number of elite defenders, including Amen Thompson and Tari Eason. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropped 51 points against the Rockets back on March 3rd, so Houston will be even more motivated to prevent a repeat performance from the MVP frontrunner.
Jalen Green under 20.5 points (-110)
Green has gone under this line in two of his last 10 games, averaging 19.3 field goal attempts in 35.1 minutes. Oklahoma City's stout defense is well known, and Green will have to contend with two excellent defenders in Lu Dort and Alex Caruso. Over the past month, the Thunder have allowed the second fewest points to shooting guards. Green has gone under this line in seven of his last eight matchups against Oklahoma City.
