WAS vs IND Dream11 Team| Player Stats
Russell Westbrook
PPG: 22.2
APG: 11.7
RPG: 11.5
SPG: 1.4
TPG: 4.8
Projected Fantasy Points: 64
Westbrook had a stellar triple-double season and will be a key in this game for his team. In the game against the Celtics, he had a poor shooting outing, managing only 33% from the field and 0-4 from the 3pt line. He needs to score at a better efficiency than that. His overall stat line read as 20 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks, which is enough for him to be considered as the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA scenario.
Domantas Sabonis
PPG: 20.3
RPG: 12.0
APG: 6.7
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 3.4
PFP: 60
Sabonis has been a top contributor for the Pacers and has performed admirably across the boards. He can score, rebound, and drop dimes for the squad, and will be much needed in this most important game of the season for them as it is a win or go home situation. He dropped 14 points, 21 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 block, and 1 steal in an impressive outing against the Hornets.
Bradley Beal
PPG: 31.3
RPG: 4.7
APG: 4.4
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 3.1
PFP: 55
Beal produced an outstanding scoring season, finishing 2nd in the league in terms of PPG. He will be a big factor in this game and will see a ball lot in his hands. In the loss against the Celtics, he registered 22 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, and 1 block.
TJ McConnell:
PPG: 8.6
APG: 6.6
RPG: 3.7
SPG: 1.9
TPG: 2.0
PFP: 34
McConnell provides depth at the PG spot and if Brogdon doesn’t play in the game then he will see a further expansion in his duties. The guard ranked 2nd in SPG this season and will be key whether Brogdon is healthy or not. He finished with 17 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, and 4 steals in an impressive showing against the Hornets.
Rui Hachimura: PPG: 13.8 RPG: 5.5 TPG: 1.2 PFP: 23
The young Hachimura is an “X-Factor” for the Wizards and will certainly need to step up his game against the Pacers. He compiled 8 points, 2 rebounds, and 1 block, and played 17 minutes, which is way less than what he registered in the regular season.
Doug McDermott: PPG: 13.5 RPG: 3.4 PFP: 25
Doug is a sniper from long-range and his services will be much-needed during this crucial game. He had a great outing against the Hornets, registering 21 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists.
Oshae Brissett: PPG: 10.9 RPG: 5.5 BPG: 1.0 PFP: 26
Brissett has given a lot of energy to the Pacers, shuffling in at the Forward spot. He produced a terrific game in the win against the Hornets, finishing with 23 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists.
Ish Smith had 17 points and 8 rebounds in the loss against the Celtics. PFP: 24
Justin Holiday had 12 points and 5 assists in the win against the Hornets. PFP: 20
