You have only five days left to enter out season-opening tournament at FanDuel. It costs just two bucks to win up to $200 from the $1,000 prize pool. You can also earn priceless bragging rights by beating me, Jeff, Bruce and Chris Sheridan. Tell your friends in traditional leagues and compete with them.

Until today, I had Kobe Bryant in my lineup. Between his sore foot and it being the second night of a back-to-back, he’s cut. I saved $1,900 by switching from Mamba to Wesley Matthews and $700 more subbing Kevin Martin for Klay Thompson. That let me upgrade at C from Jonas Valanciunas to Marcin Gortat, who is playing the center-less Warriors. If the contest closed tonight instead of on Hallowe’en, this would be my team:
PG Ty Lawson DEN@PHI $7,300
PG Kyle Lowry IND@TOR $5,900
SG Wesley Matthews LAL@POR $6,600
SG Kevin Martin HOU@DET $6,100
SF Andre Iguodala DEN@PHI $6,900
SF Rudy Gay MEM@LAC $7,200
PF Paul Millsap DAL@UTA $7,500
PF Thaddeus Young DEN@PHI $5,400
C Marcin Gortat GS@PHO $7,000
Tomorrow, an abbreviated morning Spin will keep you up-to-date on breaking news, but every Saturday afternoon for the entire season, Jeff Nichols will take a detailed look at the week ahead for fantasy owners. Don’t miss it!
