Yesterday's Perfect NBA DFS Lineups: Tuesday 3/3/15
Yesterday's slate may have lacked some star power, there were a number of guys who played like All-Stars last night.
Rudy Gobert continued to look spectacular since the Jazz shipped Enes Kanter to Oklahoma City, grabbing a whopping 24 boards to go along with 15 points in a very tough matchup against the Grizzlies while Big Al Jefferson's massive 21-point, 16-board double-double helped push the Hornets past the Lakers. Additionally, guys like Mo Williams, Donatas Motiejunas and Jason Terry all took advantage of their team's star players being sidelined, posting huge lines in increased roles last night.
While James Harden, Zach Randolph and Derrick Rose all sat out last night due to various reasons, one global icon stole the show -- Jeremy Lin. Linsanity returned in a big way last night, as the Lakers point guard poured in 23 points with 8 assists and 6 rebounds in a hard fought loss against Charlotte. Lin looked every bit as good as he did during his famous run in New York -- even knocking down a fourth quarter buzzer beater. It has been an incredibly rough year for Laker fans, but hopefully Linsanity returns in full force to give the fans of the gold and black something exciting to cheer for down the stretch.
