LAL vs MEM Dream11 Team Prediction NBA Projections, Fantasy Basketball Picks for Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies 13 February

Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies Fantasy NBA: The Los Angeles Lakers will enter the game after chipping in an exciting 1 point victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder behind a 25 points effort by King LeBron James. On the other hand, the Memphis Grizzlies will enter the contest after beating the Hornets by 16 points, courtesy of a 27 points outing by Kyle Anderson. The Los Angeles Lakers have continued to impress and place second in the NBA standings for the Western Conference, they have played some close games recently but a performer like LeBron James is unhinged after all the experience and talent he has had. The Lakers are playing the reigning champions this season and it will not be a surprise if they get a back-to-back chance in the NBA Finals.
The Grizzlies are looking for stability but they will not flinch because Ja Morant has continued to progress in the right direction and is striving for the highest honors both individually and for the team. Kyle Anderson has had an impressive stretch recently but the team still lacks its dynamic players in Jaren Jackson and Justise Winslow, which makes the current record actually look impressive in some ways. The Grizzlies don’t have the talent like the Lakers but they still play hard-nosed defense and are not an easy opponent. More information about the LAL vs MEM Dream11 Fixture will be given here.

The Los Angeles Lakers have multiple advantages over the Memphis Grizzlies, in terms of roster depth, talent, and their win total is two times the wins garnered by the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have suffered because of an array of injuries this season but are still managing to win half of their games due to their defense which ranks 10th in terms of Points Allowed Per Game. It implies that the Grizzlies are well-coached and Taylor Jenkins has instilled a defensive mindset among the team. The play of Ja Morant has been impressive for Memphis and he has made huge strides this season, using his athleticism and feel for the game. However, the Lakers have multiple tools to deploy, and to fend off such a team will require the Grizzlies to play at their best level. This game is worthy of NBA live stream as it features talents like LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Ja Morant.

NBA Scores, Fantasy Picks:
LeBron James
PPG: 25.5
RPG: 7.9
APG: 7.9
SPG: 1.1
TPG: 3.7(Turnovers per game)
Projected Fantasy Points: 33
LBJ is having another stellar season and it is not surprising as he won the NBA Finals MVP last season. At age 36, LeBron looks like he has another 5 legendary years in store for this league and is still better than most of the players in the Association. LeBron continued to impress during the last game and posted 25 points, 7 assists, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals in the win against the Oklahoma City Thunder. LeBron is a great candidate as the Super-Player for the Dream11 NBA scenario.
Anthony Davis
PPG: 22.3
RPG: 8.6
APG: 3.2
BPG: 1.9
SPG: 1.4
TPG: 2.0
Projected Fantasy Points: 37
Anthony Davis provides incredible offense and defense for the Lakers, whereas his athleticism combined with decent shooting makes him a difficult player to deal with on a regular basis. Davis became the NBA championship last season playing with LeBron James and is a worthy player to watch in the NBA live action. Davis has been out in the last two games but is likely to return in the contest versus the Memphis Grizzlies.

Jonas Valanciunas
PPG: 15.7
RPG: 11.1
TPG: 2.3
Projected Fantasy Points: 28
Jonas has given the Grizzlies size at the Center spot and holds down both the offensive and defensive sides. He has been a terrific rebounder and his experience has enabled him to become a constant contributor for the Memphis Grizzlies. Jonas had another superb rebounding outing in the win against the Hornets, stacking 12 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals.

Ja Morant
PPG: 18.3
APG: 7.7
SPG: 1.1
TPG: 3.1
Projected Fantasy Points: 24
Ja has struggled a little since his return from injury but overall, he still continues to impress at such a young age with his talent. Morant has been the leading scorer for the Grizzlies in terms of PPG and orchestrates their offense at the PG position. He is coming off 15 points, 11 assists, 3 rebounds, and 1 steal outing in the win against the Hornets.

Sleeper Picks:
Dennis Schroeder: Schroeder is averaging 14.6 PPG, 4.4 APG, and 3.8 RPG. Dennis has bolstered the PG position for the Lakers and it is scary that the current champions have become even a better team ever since he has entered the fray. Dennis amassed 19 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal in the win against the Thunder. Projected Fantasy Points: 23
Kyle Anderson: Anderson is averaging 13.1 PPG, 6.4 RPG, and 3.8 APG. Kyle provides a level-headed play at the Forward position and even though he appears slow, his deceptive manner of play works on both sides of the floor. He is coming off an incredible night in the win against the Hornets, managing 27 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, and 1 block. Projected Fantasy Points: 22
Montrezl Harrell: Harrell is averaging 13.5 PPG and 6.3 RPG. Montrezl is an upgrade off the bench and his inside plays make it harder for the opponents to cover the Lakers team. The tenacious Harrell is coming off 20 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 blocks performance in the OT win against the Thunder. Projected Fantasy Points: 23

Dillon Brooks is averaging 15.6 PPG, 3.6 RPG, and 1.3 SPG. Projected Fantasy Points: 17
Kyle Kuzma is averaging 10.3 PPG and 5.9 RPG. Projected Fantasy Points: 16

Note
Fantasy Points are the total number of points players amass based upon points, assists, rebounds, steals, blocks, and turnovers. Points, rebounds, and assists are multiplied by a value of 1, steals and blocks are multiplied by 3, whereas, for each turnover, the player loses 3 points. For example, if a player has 10 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block, 1 steal, and 2 turnovers, then the total value will be 20 (10+5+5+1*3+1*3-2*3). A Super-Player gets two times increase in the total fantasy points, so if the Player gets 20 points then it will be doubled to 40. In the case of Pro-Player, he gets a 1.5 increase, which means if a player gets 20 points then the total becomes 35. Projected Fantasy Points given here are based upon season averages and prediction analysis.
