DRAFTKINGS WNBA 9-1 DFS PICKS

what's going on everybody it's Cody welcome back to the channel 4 game WNBA Sunday slate 10K to first I repeat 10K to First on a Sunday after back-to-back weeks of $20 into 2K uh so I will gladly take 10K really interested to see what we get next Sunday with the NFL back in full swing uh I'm not expecting 10K again but I'm going to enjoy this one uh really really fun slate here uh I did not play The Showdown slate today uh I was at my younger brother's wedding so I kind of I did play college football but I took the day off I pretty much built all my college football lineups late last night and then just kind of took the day I kept up with news just in case if I needed to make any pivots but I didn't didn't play today it was kind of nice uh just just uh relaxing uh spending some time with family but uh looking forward to this for gamer just wanted to uh take a quick second and mention uh tomorrow morning uh 9:00 a.m. Central Time uh I will be doing a 2hour underdog live stream uh where I'll be live streaming uh just going over uh my thought process behind the rankings that I personally come up with uh and then doing some drafts if you guys want to hop on ask some questions uh they can be DFS related they can be Underdog related or whatever like whatever you guys want to ask I'll be on just uh kind of hanging out and then uh of course I'll be live before lock before the Slate starts uh 30 minutes before uh the first game locks so let's take it over here and look at these odds and then we'll go back and break it down team by team Chicago at Minnesota 12o spread over under 157 A5 Indiana at Dallas three-point spread over under 183 and a half woo buddy Shee Las Vegas at Phoenix fourpoint spread over under 1682 Atlanta at La threo spread over under 163 and a half so three really good games uh one that could be a bit of a blowout uh let's just let's just go ahead and start with the Chicago side Kennedy Carter is still questionable uh with covid-19 I'm personally not expecting her to play uh if she does it will help him if she doesn't I'm not sure this game stays competitive uh they have zero floor spacing whatsoever without Kennedy Carter on the floor and even with her on the floor uh it's not the best so Angel ree 11.4k you can play her uh obviously she has big big upside uh but if she's not getting 20 rebounds and taking 16 plus shots her floor is pretty low obviously still firmly in play for tournaments uh like I mentioned if Kennedy Carter is active I would have some interest at 10K she's just going to come in and command just a ton of usage Camila cardosa 8900 uh she's playing low to mid-30s minutes I think she's a fine play uh not the best at that price point but uh she's playing big minutes I can get you some stocks just worry about the offensive upside in a player like her uh Lindsay Allen absolutely shot the lights out uh if you think she's going to do that again be my guest uh I'm not expecting 35 fantasy points in 25 minutes pretty much ever again uh for her uh but at 6,900 it she's fine uh Oni inor 6K once again shot 13 times I guess uh her being the number one on offense when uh Kennedy Carter's out is a thing uh 13 14 and 13 shots in the last three uh she did get eight peripheral stats were before 3 1 4 three uh they just haven't been there for uh so if you think she's going to continue to shoot 10 plus times uh she's not the worst play uh she just has very little peripheral upside uh and sometimes she doesn't even have like shooting upside so uh pretty narrow path for her to hit value at 6K in my opinion Rachel banam 5500 would net the start again assuming uh Kennedy Carter is out she shot five of 15 played 27 minutes played a lot better than this first start against Washington uh so would have some interest in her if Kennedy Carter is out everyone else pretty much out on I just don't don't want to take the headaches on the Minnesota side nefisa CER I'm pretty tilted I only 31 minutes against Dallas 17 points I played her over 21 and a half uh points prop and she got pulled twice in the fourth quarter once with like 8 minutes to go and I thought reev was throwing in the towel she only sat for about 45 seconds to a minute but then she got pulled for the remainder of the game at the 4minute Mark uh she would have easily hit her points prop uh she was playing pretty well I wasn't shooting it super efficiently to start the game but really started to heat up later on uh they just had nothing for Dallas Dallas couldn't miss and that's a theme that we're going to talk about here in just a bit but love fee up at the top I think she's one of the best plays in the Slate I'm not scared of Chicago whatsoever I think she can do whatever she wants only worry with this game is the possibility of a blowout and then her not getting full run uh Courtney Williams 8,800 I think she's fine I'm probably staying away at that price point uh minutes they're they're just keeping an eye on her minutes only 23 this last game I think at most she's going to get like 27 28 uh Alana Smith is questionable uh due to left ankle injur injury so definitely we need to keep an eye on this uh we it's the first game of the day so we'll get this news uh before lock uh probably during the live stream so you'll definitely want to be in there uh if she's out Misha H Allen would look amazing at 5200 uh she's practically a Fantasy Point per minute player uh on average on the season for both teams that she's played for uh and she doesn't need to score the ball to get there she just Stuffs the stat sheet she's a a great player when given the minutes uh Cayla McBride and Bridget Carlton both of them are fine plays uh especially as like a last play in like a filler play uh they both have decent upside they can hit threes get hot and uh and get you there in tournaments at their price point everyone else pretty much out on uh besides me shines out on if Alana Smith is out moving on to by far the best game to Target on this slate uh we have the two worst defenses in the WNBA uh Indiana pretty bad defense Dallas historically arguably the worst defense ever uh for the Indiana side a ton to love here like Nissa Smith assuming she stays out of foul trouble uh only seeing 19 minutes she can get there for 6600 I I think her price has reached a point where in a matchup like this I don't mind taking shots on her in tournaments uh Kelsey Mitchell if you're ever going to pay her pay for her she only played 29 minutes against Chicago 23 real life points 26 fantasy points this is the floor for Kelsey Mitchell and she scored 23 real life points she shot nine of 13 this is a floor game actually this is like not even close to a floor game this is a decent game because of how her shooting if she shoots poorly and gets two peripheral stats she's going to score 20 fantasy points if she shoots well because she's playing against Dallas she could go for 40 or 50 so big range of outcomes for a player like her uh great tournament play uh Leah Boston looks fantastic for tournaments 10.6k she's been super disappointing of late uh these 30s like 35 37 33 38 32 like the this is the upside that she has 55 48 51 three straight games right at 50 uh when teams are going to be focusing on Caitlyn Clark and now Kelsey Mitchell who's really elevated her game Leah Boston can slip through the cracks and really have one of those blowup games uh Caitlyn Clark at the top I mean we don't need to say anything about Caitlyn Clark's upside last time they played she had 19 assists uh always a uh viable scoring option as well she's been stuffing the stat sheet all season and the scoring has really come on of late so love her at the top at 12.1k Lexi Hull 5100 I think she makes for a fine play she's playing low 30s minutes every night since entering the starting lineup uh obviously she's pretty score independent I do want to say that but you can score on Dallas so I'm not too worried about that I think bleay makes for a fine play uh she put up 17 fantasy points in 18 minutes and shot one of six she just Stuffs the stat sheet they love her out there with Boston uh she runs the floor a lot better than uh Nelissa Smith she plays a lot better defense I I I'm pretty high on Timmy benl at 4,800 everyone else I'm out on on the Dallas side as I was mentioning earlier this Dallas team is fully healthy and arguably the most dangerous team in the WNBA I said it in the Discord last night I think they end up as the eight seed I think they're going to they're only like one or one and a half game back out of uh from Atlanta who's a half game back from Chicago so in reality they're like at most two games out of the wild card or out of the playoff uh picture this team can score with anyone and if they're hot shooting the ball good luck beating them they'll just race you to 100 they have three prolific offensive players like some three of the best offensive players in the WNBA arque Goomba playing every minute of every game here she played 39 minutes she got to rest the final half a minute when the game was well in hand taking massive massive shot attempts every game 24 17 21 18 in the last four fully expect her to end up right around 50 fantasy points assuming she doesn't just throw up bricks the whole game uh Natasha Howard 10.5k satu sa 9900 typically I like to lean whichever one's cheaper because they even out to about the same Fantasy Point per minute player on average but love both in their matchups satu sobly is going to be guarded by Lexi hle best of luck to her uh in her future endeavors uh she is going to get absolutely cooked by satu svy uh tiarra Macau 8300 makes for a fine tournament play everyone else I'm pretty much out on I think you can play usen I think there's a high probability that she gets the start uh she has simply just outplayed JC Sheldon uh these past couple games you've seen the minutes shift uh a lot into 's favor 31 to9 this last game so definitely keep that in mind I think she's a viable punt play and would look even better if she starts 3,800 though even if she's coming off the bench I think you can play her only worry is if Sheldon starts out hot it may limit the true minutes uh volume for uen uh moving on uh Aces at the Mercury on the aces side Asia Wilson at the top uh I don't think this is a spot where you just absolutely must click Asia Wilson on this slate it's weird uh I don't say that very often but this Indiana Dallas game is just going to be the stone cold nuts it's going to be very popular but I think there's ways you can uh get some leverage off of that game even with plays in that game but I think this is a slate where you can get away from Asia Wilson if you want to it doesn't mean you have to uh she's still going to be one of the most popular plays on this late if not the most popular uh she is a walk in uh 50 Burger 65 this last time out I mean it it's ridiculous what This Woman's doing uh Jackie young was out last game for rest uh fully expecting her to be back uh she looks fine at 9800 matchup is really solid Kelsey Plum if she can't get there with Jackie young off the floor I mean she's a a strictly a gpp tournament play going forward I I I don't know she had a good game with Jackie out but not like she didn't even get to 30 and like I I was expecting 35 to 40 and and she didn't even get to 30 so uh pretty disappointed with with how her SE uh Seasons went Chelsea Gray 7,800 she's fine uh playing 27 to 31 minutes uh she's okay I just fine I'm not ever rushing to play her Tiffany Hayes absolutely WI wild started for Jackie young uh 6,400 if for some reason Jackie Young's out again Tiffany Hayes would be one of the best plays on the Slate Alicia Clark I I figured that they would start her they did she played 31 minutes had a good day uh for her salary if she starts again I think she looks fine I personally expect her to start again uh just with Asia Garden BG and then clar the Phoenix Mercury run a pretty uh small rotation or small lineup outside of BG so I fully expect Clark to start at the four again everyone else I'm out on unless like Megan guson or kia Stokes was to get the start then I may have some interest in Gus I would not have very much interest in Kia Stokes even if she was to pick up the start on the Phoenix side man this team I really like I want to play the starters and like Mo Billings that's really the only ones I have interest in uh CLE copper has been God awful bad uh these past like four of five and even this game here against Atlanta where she had 32 that's fine but at 105 like she's not even paying off her salary there so she's had really really struggled this last these last five games I think you can go there the price continues to drop for she makes for a fine tournament play Natasha Cloud 9k I'm staying away Diana terasi at 7600 I do have some interest in I think she's going to get quite a bit of open looks and she's playing at home Sophie Cunningham 6700 she's a fine play uh keep an eye on the starting lineup though if Billings gets the start again uh would be a pretty big hit to Sophie coming off the bench I wouldn't like her near as much and then BG at 10.1k fine tournament play uh decent matchup especially if she's going up against Asia Asia's not going to get in foul trouble she's not going to risk that so BG would get a decent uh amount of shots up and a decent matchup I mean you can you can score on Asia she's going to get her blocks but you can score on her uh last game of the day Atlanta at Los Angeles on the Atlanta side Tina Charles is back uh we do still have aerial powers and Cheyenne Parker out so uh but the big news is Tina Charles is back fully expecting her to come back and play 35 36 minutes uh fantastic matchup for her to come back to ryanh Howard 9700 ah four of 19 shooting man Ryan I don't know great tournament play she continues to be a fantastic tournament play on usage alone uh but she needs to start taking uh some better shots like her shot selection is awful uh Alicia gray 8500 looks great uh they're just playing huge minutes their starting guards are playing huge minutes Jordan Canada only 26 I do want to mention I don't want to add her into like Ryan Howard and Alicia gray are the two that are playing Just massive minutes they're limited C limiting Canada to about 28 to 31 32 uh she's still a fine play at 8100 facing her former team so maybe she'll come out with a little bit of passion Nas Helman 6300 fine not someone I'm I'm rushing to play uh not really interested in really anyone else down here I think you could play Nia coffee uh if you think she gets extended a little bit or n struggles uh but she only saw 12 minutes against the aces put up a decent fantasy day uh but only seeing 12 minutes is a little bit concerning when they were that short on bigs on the spark side to close out the Slate uh Ary McDonald is expected to be back uh we just got that news a little bit ago uh so that pretty much kills Odyssey Sims that kills Crystal Dangerfield uh not expecting Lexi Brown to play they've already rolled out Clarendon cook is unplayable nurse is unplayable Burell is unplayable really the only players I have interest in Hami is fine at 10.4k rakia Jackson has been playing better of late at 8700 AER Stevens at 7700 I think she's a fine play and then tabba and yuru both look okay at their price points not a lot to love on this team they're just spreading the usage out so much and now ER McDonald's coming back uh going to eat into Sims minutes and Dangerfield probably gets released or uh just dmps so that's going to do it for me guys be sure to hop in uh the live streams tomorrow it's going to be a lot of fun really looking forward to this slate uh and catching up with everybody uh good luck to you guys and we'll see you in the live stream tomorrow
