NBA Sit or Start Guide

Payton Pritchard (vs. Nuggets)
Against the Nuggets, Payton Pritchard is a sneaky play. His quickness and high basketball IQ allow him to exploit Denver’s defense, especially with his hot shooting from beyond the arc. He can provide valuable threes and assists, making him a must-start.
Start
Shaedon Sharpe (vs. Cavaliers)
Shaedon Sharpe is set for an expanded role against the Cavaliers. With their defense focused on containing other scorers, Sharpe will have room to drive, score, and contribute on both ends. His explosive athleticism and efficiency make him a clear start.
Start
Ivica Zubac (vs. Lakers)
With Anthony Davis no longer on the Lakers, Ivica Zubac faces a more favorable matchup in the paint. His ability to secure rebounds and block shots should translate into a strong fantasy performance, making him a must-start in this contest.
Start
Johnny Juzang (vs. Pelicans)
Johnny Juzang’s role in the Jazz rotation has been inconsistent, and against the Pelicans' tough wing defense, his scoring opportunities may be limited. For fantasy purposes, it's best to sit him in this matchup.
Sit
Jordan Hawkins (vs. Jazz)
Jordan Hawkins has been streaky, and with the Pelicans' perimeter defense posing a challenge, his role might be limited in this game. For optimal fantasy returns, it's advisable to sit him against the Jazz.
