Yesterday's Perfect NBA DFS Lineups: Monday 3/16/15
Although the stars we expected to have huge games -- neither LeBron James nor Russell Westbrook hit value last night -- there were plenty of All-Stars who put on a show and it starts with Kyle Lowry. Lowry has looked spectacular since returning from injury and last night was no different. The Raptors' floor general posted a triple-double, scoring 20 points with 11 rebounds and 10 assists in Toronto's blowout victory over the Pacers.
Lowry wasn't the only star point guard to lead his team to victory with a monster line last night. John Wall nearly messed around and got his own triple-double, dropping 21 points with 11 assists and 9 boards while also adding 2 steals and 2 blocks. Similarly to Lowry and Wall, Dwyane Wade carried his team to victory last night as well. With his former teammate LeBron James and the Cavaliers in town, Wade had a statement performance, dominating Cleveland en route to 32 points, 5 steals, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. Flash has been incredible when healthy this season and if he can stay healthy he should continue to provide excellent value for the remainder of the season.
Tonight's slate only features five games and value will be hard to come by.
