2016 NBA Breaking News October 26th

Devin Knotts's 2016 NBA Breaking News October 26th Devin Knotts Published 10/25/2016

This article will be updated throughout the day for any breaking news that may occur up until game time with fantasy analysis. 

Robert Covington starting at Small Forward- 
We had Covington projected as starting, so there is no update here to the projections. Covington makes for a nice GPP play as mentioned by Rob Gordon on our staff.

Chandler Parsons- Out

Chandler Parsons will miss this game with a knee injury. We are projecting that James Ennis will start in Parsons place for this game. Ennis makes a nice punt play based on minutes and price alone, but during the preseason his usage rate was only 14.7% which is extremely low and limits his GPP upside. Mike Conley will see an uptick in usage with Parsons out and Gasol on a minutes restriction.

Gary Harris and Darrell Arthur- Out

Will Barton comes off the bench to start for Gary Harris and becomes a very intriguing play in both cash and GPP's. Barton averaged close to 1.0 FanDuel points per minute last season, and at his discounted price in a game that is expected to be a high scoring game should be able to get close to 5-6x value.

Jahlil Okafor- 12 Minute Restriction
Okafor will be restricted to just 12 minutes tonight per Bob Cooney on Twitter This changes nothing, as we had predicted it would be right around the 12 minute mark.
