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.
Just like last week, Saturday’s NBA schedule features 10 games, highlighted by the Oklahoma City Thunder visiting the LA Clippers as the nightcap at 10:30 p.m. ET. Waiver wires are going to be attacked between now and Monday, so think about getting ahead of the crowd and making pickups on Saturday afternoon. All the teams playing Saturday are off Sunday. Here are my best bets and streaming options for Saturday.
Saturday’s fantasy players to stream into your lineup
Jeremy Sochan, San Antonio Spurs, PF (35.7% rostered)
Sochan was all over the place last season, but he has quietly settled into a nice role with the Spurs through the team’s first five games. He has scored in double figures in every game and has averaged 17 points, 8.2 boards, 3.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.4 blocks and has only hit two 3-pointers thus far. He’s not a great free throw shooter (65%) but he might be the best and most consistent player sitting on your league’s waiver wire.
Payton Pritchard, Boston Celtics, PG (28.1% rostered)
The Celtics will be playing in their second of a back-to-back set and it feels like Pritchard will get the green light in those situations, while some bigger names might rest. After a dud to start the season (3 points, 1-of-10 shooting) Pritchard went on a four-game tear where he posted 19.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 5.8 triples. He fell back to earth on Friday against the Hornets, hitting just 1-of-6 shots for seven points and no 3-pointers. But, he also racked up a season-high five steals in that one. As long as he’s playing for the Celtics on Saturday, it makes sense for him to also be in fantasy lineups.
Keon Ellis, San Antonio Spurs, SG (0.4% rostered)
This is a deep-league special, as Ellis is slowly being implemented into the Kings’ rotation. His minutes have increased in every game: 11, 14, 17 and 19 – and he had a season-high 12 points
Bets for Saturday
Al Horford OVER 14.5 total points + rebounds + assists (-125)
Horford got a night of rest Friday and should be chomping at the bit to face the Hornets, who don’t have a household name at center. If Luke Kornet was able to get 10 PAR in 24 minutes in that game, Horford should easily hit this number tonight, as long as former Celtic Grant Williams, who laid out Jayson Tatum on Friday, doesn’t take a shot at Horford tonight. Horford has hit at least 14.5 PAR in three of his five games.
Andre Drummond OVER 12.5 rebounds (-115)
Drummond has had at least nine rebounds in all four of his games and has 11 or more in three of those. While the Grizzlies have one of the best defenders in the league in Jaren Jackson Jr., he’s also one of the worst-rebounding big men, as well, pulling in just fewer than five per game. Santi Aldama has been solid, but has only hit double digits in rebounding once, and Drummond might be licking his chops to teach rookie Zach Edey a thing or two. Joel Embiid is still out for the Sixers so Drummond should be looking to crash the boards again on Saturday.
Victor Wembanyama OVER 38.5 total points + rebounds + assists (-110)
Wembanyama is coming off a historic 5×5 stat line that included 25 points, nine rebounds and seven assists against the Jazz. He’ll face Rudy Gobert on Saturday and NBA players no longer seem to be intimidated by Gobert’s defensive prowess. The four-time Defensive Player of the Year was brutally dunked on by Christian Braun on Friday night, big men are going at him with no fear this season and Wemby seemed to enjoy the challenge of facing Gobert last year. Wembanyama had 29 points, nine boards and four assists against the Wolves a nearly a year ago on Nov. 10, and Karl-Anthony Towns is no longer in Minnesota to help Gobert stop him. Wemby should have a big night as long as Gregg Popovich lets him do his thing.
