Yesterday the Bucks alternate jerseys with the moniker 'Cream City' were leaked to very mixed reviews. The nickname is an homage to the many cream colored bricks that were used to construct buildings in Milwaukee - in itself an Algonquin name meaning 'the good land.' The jersey is allegedly going to be worn as part of the NBA's 'City Edition' uniforms or as an alternate later in the season.

As DFS players we've all been on the bad side of cream city - and the good (NSFW). With an 11-game slate on tap for tonight, there's sure to be a mix of both. These huge cards are awesome for variance and volatility - but with so much flexibility it's also easy to 'go mental.' Let's keep our wits and dig through this schedule - because it's "Game On."

Tonight's DFS Headlines

There are three potential 70+ nights on tap when Luka Doncic ($10.4k) and Dallas host Golden State, James Harden ($11.8k) and Houston visits Denver, and Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11.2k) and 'Cream City' face Atlanta. Both the Mavericks and Milwaukee are double digit favorites, so it may be Harden with the best matchup - or minutes potential vs. the Nuggets (DEN -2).

The Cleveland at Miami game looks ugly overall for DFS purposes but we could see a vintage Kevin Love ($7.4k) 20-20 performance as he returns to the lineup and Tristan Thompson sits.

Kyrie Irving is also out again tonight which continues to provide value for Spencer Dinwiddie ($7.2k) who had a 28/8/5 line Monday. The Nets host Charlotte and their 3rd worst defense tonight.

Minnesota was able to score 112 points on Utah's #2 defense in Salt Lake City on Monday. Can they hit the 120 mark on the back end of a home and home tonight? Karl-Anthony Towns ($9.6k) had a 62 point DFS night vs. Rudy Gobert ($8.1k) in that game - is 70 possible at home especially if Andrew Wiggins sits again for the Wolves?

Guards

Devonte Graham (DK: $6700 FD: $7100 Y! $25)

Devonte Graham gets a nice pace boost vs. a Brooklyn squad (+6.5) that is also missing Kyrie Irving. Graham had a disappointing 24 point fantasy night last time out , but had 19+ fg in each of the three games prior. Brooklyn has the #2 pace in the league to go with a bottom 10 defense - a great combination.

Jeff Teague (DK: $6,300 FD: $6,400 Y! $21)

Jeff Teague has played well since coming back from injury. He would appear to have a bad matchup tonight against Utah's #2 defense but one spot the Jazz struggle against is the PG. Teague is a perfect example of that, going for 21 points while dishing out 11 assists and grabbing 4 rebounds when the teams met Monday. Teague has double digit assists in each of the last three and will get more scoring chances if Andrew Wiggins misses tonight's contest. Utah has allowed 40+ fp to the last 5 PG's they've faced.

Jamal Murray (DK: $7,500 FD: $7,400 Y! $28)

Jamal Murray going for 39 points, dishing out 8 assists, and grabbing 4 rebounds vs. the Grizzlies. Expect more of the same with a 6.41 pace boost against the Rockets . Murray gets a 44% increase in production with 2+ nights off and should be well rested for this ping-pong match against the Rockets.

Captain Obvious points out that Luka Doncic is a walking triple-double with two 75+ point DFS nights in his last 3 and is up against Golden State's 2nd worst defense. Same with James Harden, who dropped to a 56 fp night last game only because Houston was blowing out Portland by 20+.

Forwards

Donte DiVincenzo (DK: $4,700 FD: $5,000 Y!: $11)

Donte Divincenzo is getting his chance to fill the Khris Middleton G/F role for Milwaukee. He responded with a 15/4/4 night that was good for 34 fp. The Bucks have a favorable matchup with the Hawks who have been destroyed by the SF position as of late, allowing three 40+ fp nights in the last four. Wesley Matthews is a non-threat in this one and it would be nice to see what DiVincenzo can do if rewarded with a 30 minute night.

Will Barton (DK: $6,300 FD: $6,700 Y!: $23)

Will Barton underperformed in his last game in what should have been a nice night against fast-paced Memphis. One of the reasons he was just 2-6 in 24 minutes is because the Nuggets had the game comfortably in hand with a 17 point win over the Grizzlies. Tonight should be a lot closer, with the Nuggets a 2-point favorite over the Rockets and back at home. Barton had at least 16 field goal attempts in the 3 games prior and the Rockets also have a top 5 pace team

De'Andre Hunter (DK: $4200 FD: $4500 Y! $14)

The reach play for GPP purposes tonight is Atlanta's De'Andre Hunter. Gotta get some exposure in a matchup of two of the top 11 teams in pace as Atlanta hosts Milwaukee. Trae Young is probably going to light things up tonight, but there's potential for Hunter to get some spill off, especially with Jabari Parker and Evan Turner both a game-time-decision. Hunter has 14+ shots in 2 of the last 3, a hot night with a lot of opportunities isn't out of the question.

With Kawhi Leonard's status still up in the air, Paul George ($7.8k) could see a return to value vs. Boston. The $1k salary hike for DeMar DeRozan ($8.1k) is kind of brutal but he is up against a Washington defense that is absolute Swiss Cheese, especially vs. the SF position.

Center

Bam Adebayo (DK: $8,300, FD; $8,100 Y!:$31 )

Everybody is going to be on the big names tonight with Towns, Embiid, Drummond, Vucevic, Drummond, and Jokic (cough) in action. That leaves Bam Adebayo in a good ownership spot against a Cleveland team that will be missing Tristan Thompson and with question marks surrounding the health of Kevin Love and Larry Nance, Jr. as well. Adebayo's ceiling keeps climbing with FP nights of 38, 45, and 52 over the last three. There's a drop-off point coming and the minutes could be a bit lower tonight with the Heat -9 favorites at home vs. Cleveland. You like 14+ rebounds in three straight though, and the fact that Adebayo just posted a 40 minute night vs. Cleveland last Thursday despite Miami winning by 11.

Karl-Anthony Towns ($9.6k) just had a 63 point DFS night against Utah on Monday and has the same matchup tonight but at the Target Center. Towns gets a 12 fp boost if Wiggins does indeed sit. Joel Embiid ($10k) is up against the Knicks with a nearly 40% boost with 2+ days of rest. It's the Knicks though, and Philly is favored by over a dozen points.

One of those 2-gamers coming up on Thursday, so we can theoretically explore every single player on the slate. Until then, you can also follow me, Carl Taylor (@dailydogsports), on Twitter for more daily fantasy and sports betting talk.
