Yahoo’s Friday 24th November Play and Strategy Guide!

The NBA is back in full swing with an action-packed 10-game schedule on Friday. With two games starting early, we’ve got eight thrilling matchups lined up for the main Yahoo slate. Let’s dive into some top players to target and a few to consider avoiding to help you make the best decisions for your fantasy basketball lineup.

Best Guard Picks

Cade Cunningham, DET at IND ($31): Despite his lower shooting percentages, Cunningham’s all-around game makes him a great choice. Against the Pacers, who play a fast-paced game and have a weak defensive rating, he has the potential to put up impressive numbers.

Malik Beasley, MIL vs. WAS ($12): Beasley had a strong performance against the Wizards last week and could shine again in this favorable matchup.

Guard to Avoid

Jordan Hawkins, NO at LAC ($18): With the Pelicans’ lineup starting to solidify, Hawkins’ playing time might be more limited. Facing a tough Clippers defense, he may not be the best option for your lineup.

Top Forward Picks

Zion Williamson, NO at LAC ($35): Williamson’s skills and matchup against the Clippers make him an exciting prospect. He has been consistent and has the potential to dominate this game.

Alec Burks, DET at IND ($14): Burks could be a high-risk, high-reward option against the fast-paced Pacers team with a shaky defense.

Forward to Avoid

RJ Barrett, NY vs. MIA ($20): Barrett’s recent illness and limited playing time make him a risky pick for DFS. Additionally, the matchup doesn’t favor a breakout performance.

Top Center Picks

Jalen Duren, DET at IND ($23): Duren has the potential to make a strong comeback after being sidelined by an injury. He offers great stats and faces a favorable matchup against the Pacers.

Dario Saric, GS vs. SA ($13): With Green out, Saric has a chance to shine, especially against the fast-paced Spurs. His low salary makes him a valuable option for your lineup.

Center to Avoid

Kevon Looney, GS vs. SA ($19): Looney’s limited playing time and scoring potential make him a less attractive choice with other higher-upside options available.
