That Tuesday card was tremendous, and we have more Play-In action here. This is one of the greatest creations by the NBA over recent years because it’s made more teams competitive in the final weeks of the year. I’m excited to discuss these Eastern Conference Play-In games, so let’s go ahead and get into it!

Core Plays
Trae Young (PG – ATL): $9,200 DraftKings, $9,300 FanDuel
Young just returned from a hand injury last week, but we assume he’s ready for a full workload. He played 32 minutes in the final game of the regular season and averaged 46 DK points per game across 36 minutes a night during the year. He also had at least 32 fantasy points in all but four fixtures and should be looking at 40 minutes, 20 shots, and double-digit assists in this elimination game. He’s also got at least 42 fantasy points in 11 of his last 12 meetings with Chicago over the last four years!
