Dream 11 Fantasy tips and predictions

The Lakers have been on a 4-0 winning run after their opening day loss to city rivals the LA Clippers.

LeBron and Davis seem to be working well as a duo while the rest of the team chips in.

Gregg Popovich’s San Antonio can never be ruled out from any game and they lead their division ahead of the Houston Rockets.

Point guards

The main star for this position is San Antonio’s Mills.

Caruso isn’t expected to get too many points but will balance the credits out while Bradley recorded 11 points and 5 boards in the win over the Mavericks.

Centers

Aldridge is one of the most consistent players in the NBA and recorded a double-double in the win over the Warriors.

He would be joined by his teammate, Jakob Poeltl, who recorded 9 points and 10 boards in the win over the Mavs.

Star player

It is a toss-up between LeBron and Davis, but the King should be chosen for this game due to his all-around performances.

Davis might dominate the board again, but LeBron should be the star player as he could pick up another triple-double.
