Utah Jazz DFS Spin
Jordan Clarkson finished Saturday’s loss to Philly with a game-high 38 points on 16-of-29 shooting, adding nine rebounds, five assists and three triples. Clarkson delivered his third straight game with at least 20 points and his second 30-point game over his last three. Down 116-115 in the final seconds, he hit a floater to give the Jazz a one-point lead. Clarkson’s big night was spoiled as Joel Embiid hit a stepback jumper with five seconds remaining to lift Philly to victory. Clarkson’s 38 points are his second-highest of the season and represent one of the best offensive outputs of his entire career. He’ll look to keep up the hot scoring when the Jazz travel to Minnesota to face the Timberwolves on Monday.
Minnesota Timberwolves DFS Spin
Anthony Edwards is questionable for Monday’s matchup with the Jazz due to left hip soreness. Edwards was questionable Saturday with the same injury but played through it and posted a casual 26/6/7 line in the Wolves’ win over Cleveland. Edwards will join Taurean Prince (left ankle sprain) and Rudy Gobert (right groin soreness) as Timberwolves players listed as questionable Monday. If Edwards is unable to go, Jaylen Nowell and Austin Rivers could get a bump in playing time, and both would be in the streaming conversation. Prince’s availability is trivial for fantasy hoops purposes, but if Gobert is sidelined, Naz Reid would be a naz-ty streaming option as the presumed starting center.
