Fantasy Basketball Streaming Options

If you're looking to bolster your fantasy roster, here are some top streaming options for Sunday:

• Ausar Thompson, SF/PF, Detroit Pistons (50.9% rostered): Thompson has been on a tear recently, delivering impressive stat lines. His matchup against the Atlanta Hawks is ideal for another big performance.
• Max Christie, SG, Dallas Mavericks (30.2% rostered): Even with Luka Doncic dominating, Christie’s efficient play on both ends makes him a valuable addition to any fantasy team.
• Brandin Podziemski, SG/PG, Golden State Warriors (26.9% rostered): Podziemski has been filling up the stat sheet with assists and steals, making him a solid streaming option.
• Jose Alvarado, PG, New Orleans Pelicans (14.0% rostered): With Dejounte Murray sidelined, Alvarado has stepped up, providing a reliable source of assists and steals.

Top Betting Picks for Sunday

• Mavericks +9.5 points (-110) at Warriors: Dallas has been playing solid defense since their roster reshuffle, and they should be able to keep this game competitive.
• Phoenix Suns vs. Toronto Raptors OVER 227.5 points (-110): Both teams have struggled defensively this season, making this a prime candidate for a high-scoring game.
