Atlanta Hawks DFS Spin

Trae Young (non-COVID illness) is not listed on Tuesday's injury report for their matchup with the Pelicans. Trae missed Saturday's matchup with Denver, but he should be back in the lineup on Tuesday. That will send the rookie A.J. Griffin back to his role off the bench and will limit Dejounte Murray's production.

New Orleans Pelicans DFS Spin

Jonas Valanciunas (right quad soreness) is listed as probable for Tuesday's matchup with the Hawks. After a one game absence on Sunday, JV should be back in the lineup on Tuesday. That will send Larry Nance back to a role off the bench and return Willy Hernangomez to fantasy irrelevancy.
