11/4 DFS Notes and Picks

If you need a list of beat reporters by team:

Injury Watch/Effects:

Karl-Anthony Towns is out tonight serving the second game of his suspension, which makes Gorgui Dieng a cash game lock at $3.3K on Draftkings and Jeff Teague a great source of value in tournaments.
Joel Embiid is out tonight serving the second game of his suspension, this makes Al Horford, Tobias Harris and Josh Richardson solid values.
Jaren Jackson Jr. is out tonight this will boost Jonas Valanciunas and Brandon Clarke minutes and usage.
Draymond Green and D'Angelo Russell are out tonight making Ky Boman and Eric Paschall (Birthday Narrative) elite values tonight.
Reggie Jackson,Derrick Rose are out tonight and Tim Frazier is listed as doubtful this makes the Pistons rely even more on Andre Drummond and makes Bruce Brown Jr. a cash game lock who played 40 minutes last night and is still only $3.2K on Draftkings.
Derrick Favors is questionable tonight, if out Jahlil Okafor becomes an elite value.

GPP Thoughts:

With all the value around you will see a lot of Stars and Scrubs in tonight's slate, an easy way to get contrarian and gain leverage on the field would to be only select 1-2 cheep punt plays instead of 3-4 like most of the field will.
With a -11 spread Vegas thinks that the Warriors are going to get blown out this means that Damien Lillard and C.J McCollum minutes will take a hit and their projections will be lowered. If GSW can keep this a decently close game C.J McCollum and Rodney Hood instantly become some of my favorite plays that will garner little ownership.
Bruce Brown Jr. played 40 minutes the other night and is still $3.2K.....which means he will likely be 90%+ owned in cash tonight, for tournaments I am looking towards Christian Wood who will likely have no ownership because the only stat he recorded last game was 1 turnover, but we have seen what this kid can do (39 DK points in 21 Min) and that is something i'm willing to take a stab at in tournaments in order to differentiate myself from mega chalk.
