When looking at the NBA board, I like to target defenses that have been bad all season and I specifically like to check their last 10 games. Has their performance gotten worse? Has it gotten better? If the answer is worse, that’s where I look to attack in daily fantasy.
Here are my top plays for Wednesday’s slate.
$45 ATL PG Trae Young vs. CHA
I don’t typically like to play pricey players like this, however, Trae Young should dominate Charlotte. The Hornets are the third-worst defense in the NBA, allowing 114.9 points per game. Since March 1, Young is averaging 32 points, 3.8 rebounds and 9.8 assists. In the last 10 games against Charlotte, point guards are averaging 25.4 points and 7.1 assists. The matchup should be well worth the price for Young.

$33 CHA SG Terry Rozier vs. ATL
If you like to stack your lineups, Hornets shooting guard Terry Rozier is a good option in this spot….
