LAL vs PHX Dream11

Lakers vs Suns Fantasy NBA: The Los Angeles Lakers will enter the fray after losing to the Trailblazers despite a 36 points outburst by Anthony Davis. Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns come into the game after beating the Knicks rallying around a 26 points and 15 rebounds outing by Deandre Ayton. More regarding LAL vs PHX Dream11 will be given here.

Lakers’ season: Los Angeles is in a bit of a pinch as they have slid to the 7th spot in the NBA Standings for Western Conference. Although Davis is back, the team has been unable to find winning combinations in absence of first LeBron and then Dennis Schroeder. The Center position has become an enigma with Drummond being rusty, Gasol in an unsure role and the position of Harrell has been relegated as well. Now the Lakers will need Anthony Davis if they are to even make the main Leg of the NBA Playoffs.

Suns’ season: Suns are the second-best team in the Western Conference and under the leadership of Chris Paul have become one of the most resilient squads in the league. Suns are scoring 114.8 PPG while allowing only 108.9 PPG, which shows that they are talented on both ends. Booker is their main supplier offensively, while Ayton provides the dual role of scoring and defending while being an efficient rebounder. Players like Crowder, Bridges and Craig give this team a superb two-way presence.

LAL vs PHX Dream11 NBA Scores, Fantasy Picks

Devin Booker
PPG: 25.6
APG: 4.4
RPG: 4.1
TPG: 3.1
Projected Fantasy Points: 47
Devin Booker’s offense has been off the charts for yet another season and playing with a smart guard like Paul has taken some load off him late in the games. He has waited for the opportunity to make a Playoffs run and the current roster offers him a chance to dream of an NBA championship. He has scored 30 or more points in 6 of the last 8 games because of which he is a likely candidate for the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA scenario.

Anthony Davis
PPG: 21.3
RPG: 7.9
APG: 3.0
BPG: 1.8
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 2.1
PFP: 53
The Brow has missed considerable time this season because of injury but is back at a crucial time for the team as it keeps sliding in the rankings. Davis’ exploits as an offensive and defensive player are well-known around the league and he is certainly a handful at both ends. He has averaged 18 PPG and 1.7 BPG since his return from injury.

Chris Paul
PPG: 16.2
APG: 8.9
RPG: 4.5
SPG: 1.4
TPG: 2.2
PFP: 40
CP-3’s presence has transformed the Suns into a Playoffs bound and one of the top-performing teams in the league. His playmaking abilities, defense, scoring, and intangible aspects of the game make him an elite player, and one can see the outcome through the results generated by the Suns. He is averaging 10.6 APG for the last 5 games.
Chris Paul

Andre Drummond(Since joining Lakers)
PPG: 11.5
RPG: 9.3
SPG: 1.3
TPG: 2.2
PFP: 31
Drummond has not been in his full groove and has caught a lot of criticism from the Lakers’ fans. The team has not improved even after his inclusion and has lost games after games. Sitting in the middle of the season has made him rusty but a player of his caliber can pose a threat in the long run.

LAL vs PHX Dream11 Sleeper Picks

Deandre Ayton:  PPG: 14.7     RPG: 10.6      BPG: 1.2     TPG: 1.5     PFP: 34
Ayton is a throwback big man who likes to play inside, rebound, and do the dirty job as a defender and hustle player, which makes him a lucrative overall package. He is averaging 2 BPG for the last 5 games.

Kyle Kuzma:  PPG: 12.8    RPG: 6.2    TPG: 1.7      PFP: 29
Kuzma’s minutes reduced with the arrival of Anthony Davis a couple of years back, however, there was a slight reduction in his usage this season. The Forward is continuously lodging 30+ minutes and will need to put up more of a fight.

Mikal Bridges:  PPG: 13.5     RPG: 4.3    SPG: 1.0      PFP: 23
The youngster has a high ceiling and has helped the Suns provide regular offense and sturdy defense. He is averaging 18.2 PPG for the last 5 games and is in great touch.

Cameron Payne:  PPG: 7.7    APG: 3.5    TPG: 1.0      PFP: 18
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope:    PPG: 9.5      PFP: 23
