Anthony Davis Oklahoma City Thunder

LAL vs OKC Dream11 Team Prediction, NBA Regular Season: LAL vs OKC Dream11 Basketball Match Season match-up: The Los Angeles Lakers are entering the game after winning a thrillimg double overtime contest against the Detroit Pistons, where both Anthony Davis and LeBron James had 30+ plus nights. On the other hand, the Oklahoma City Thunder will come into the contest after beating the Timberwolves by 2 points, in a game where Shai Gilgeous-Alexander went off for 30 points and the bench played an amazing role. The Lakers are playing like the reigning champions and have a terrific roster outlook, from the PG to C position, which has enabled them to become the second best defensive team in the League and also one of the most potent offenses. The team has seen an upgrade since last year which will only send shudders down the back of its opponents.
Meanwhile the Oklahoma City Thunder have done well despite the youth and inexperience in the roster. They have a dynamic squad and have recently seen Hamidou Diallo impressing with his off-the-bench scoring. During the last meeting, the Lakers crushed the Thunder by 29 points rallying behind a 26 points and 7 assists effort by LeBron James.

LAL vs OKC Dream11 Match Prediction
The Thunder are extremely short-handed at multiple positions and will have trouble spacing the floor deep in the quarters without Mike Muscula. Isiah Roby will also miss the game and he has given some decent production. The Lakers and Thunder are placed at contrasting positions, while one has championship aspirations, the other is in the rebuilding mode and forming a squad full of young players. The difference in experience is monumental and it will not be a surprise if the Lakers repeat the performance in the last match-up against the injury-stricken Oklahoma City Thunder.

Los Angeles Lakers vs Oklahoma City Thunder, Key Players:
LeBron James
PPG: 25.5
APG: 7.8
RPG: 7.7
SPG: 1.0
Projected Fantasy Points: 35
LeBron James provides the most destructive skillset his squad and is still one of the most elite players in the League. He had driven the Lakers to highest peaks last year and can again begin an upward climb towards NBA ascendancy. He is coming off 33 points, 11 assists, 5 rebounds, and 4 steals in the 2OT win against the Pistons but also had 7 turnovers in the win. He is a terrific pick as a Super-Player in the Dream11 Fantasy basketball scenario.
Anthony Davis
PPG: 22.3
RPG: 8.6
APG: 3.2
BPG: 1.9
SPG: 1.4
Projected Fantasy Points: 37
Anthony Davis is unstoppable on the offensive end and a disruptive force at the defensive end. His numbers are a little down but that may also be an indicator of a more well-rounded squad getting contributions from other players. He was a force in the win against the Pistons, managing 30 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal. Davis is a Super-Player caliber pick too.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
PPG: 22.3
APG: 6.4
RPG: 5.5
Projected Fantasy Points: 33
Shai is emerging as one of the most impressive guards in the League. His wiry frame allows him to finish at the rim and he is a decent shooter off the dribble. Shai leads the Thunder in scoring and assists, giving them major offense at the PG position. Shai got hold of 31 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, and 1 steal in the win against the Timberwolves.

Al Horford
PPG: 13.7
RPG: 7.2
APG: 3.0
BPG: 1.0
Projected Fantasy Points: 27
Horford has given stability at the Center position and his defense allows the young Thunder to become more potent on that end. He is still a decent scorer and also supplements decent rebounding. He rested in Thunder’s latest fixture against the Timberwolves but will likely to be good to go in the match-up against the Lakers.

Sleeper Picks:
Dennis Schroeder: Schroeder has been an upgrade at the PG position for the Lakers and gives them an all-around presence. His defense is also above average so the Lakers have added a gem. He is averaging 14.2 PPG, 4.4 APG, and 3.6 RPG. He stacked 22 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds in Lakers’ win. Projected Fantasy Points: 20
Montrezl Harrell: Harrell is a nightmare to defend in the paint and has enjoyed a great time on the floor due to his skills. He is avaraging 12.9 PPG and 6.3 RPG. He lodged 7 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals, and 1 block in the Lakers’ win. Projected Fantasy Points: 19
Hamidou Diallo: Diallo has been a source of inspiration off the bench and is one of the most athletic players in the League. He is averaging 12.2 PPG, 4.6 RPG, and 1.0 SPG. He bagged 15 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block, and 1 steal in the win agains the Wolves. Projected Fantasy Points: 17
