Yesterday's Perfect NBA DFS Lineups: Monday 1/26/15
With "Snowmageddon" looming, both games that were supposed to take place in New York City were cancelled last night. This cut down the player pool by a significant amount, making it more difficult to find the proper value and build a true winning lineup. However, there were a few clues that should have helped you pick many of the players that are featured below.
Kevin Durant was forced to miss last night's matchup with Minnesota with a toe injury. On most nights, this would open the door for Russell Westbrook to put the team on his back, but when Westbrook had an off night of his own, it was Serge Ibaka who stepped up to carry the Thunder. Ibaka posted 13 points with an impressive 19 boards, 2 steals and 2 blocks en route to an Oklahoma City win and a spot in yesterday's perfect lineups.
Ibaka wasn't the only big man to put together a dominant performance last night. Anthony Davis obliterated the lowly 76ers, scoring 32 points with 10 rebounds, 4 blocks, 3 steals and 3 assists while playing just 31 minutes in the Pelican's blowout win.
Yesterday's slate was extremely hard to predict, and today's looks very similar.
