Wednesday night’s nine-game NBA slate is going to be a fun one. There are so many different lineup construction styles you could deploy. Perhaps my favorite during my early research and lineup builds is going with a balanced lineup of mid-range salary players, even though there are plenty of intriguing high-priced studs on the slate. Of course, there are a bunch of questionable tags on marquee players yet again so monitor the daily news closely and adjust accordingly.
The grid below is a snapshot of today’s slate that shows the overall rating for each position for each team. The numbers highlighted in red are the positions that are in the top 25% of their position for the slate and indicate good plays. Meanwhile, the numbers highlighted in blue are the positions that are in the bottom 25% of their respective position for the slate and are positions to avoid.
