Boris Diaw expected to play 15 to 20 minutes for Spurs
San Antonio Spurs forward/center Boris Diaw (groin) is only expected to play 15 to 20 minutes Wednesday versus the Dallas Mavericks.
With LaMarcus Aldridge, Tim Duncan and David West all set to spend Wednesday's regular-season finale on the sidelines, and Diaw with a minutes limit, Boban Marjonovic and Matt Bonner could earn some quality minutes tonight. Marjonovic is someone to consider as a punt play in DFS.
Marjanovic is one of our top value plays for Wednesday's DFS slate, with our models projecting him to finish with 16.0 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 29.0 minutes of action. He's earned a 4.5 nERD on the year, ranking 36th in the league, while averaging 8.9 minutes per contest through 53 games. We currently give the Spurs a 28.8 percent chance to win the NBA championship, which is second highest and barely behind the Golden State Warriors (28.9 percent).
