I entered yesterday’s lineup into three head-to-head matchups and went two for three. A fluky goal against Thomas Greiss and a solid defensive but lackluster offensive performance by Oliver Ekman-Larsson hurt my chances in the third matchup. But I’ll take the two wins.

Any time you get a trade that involves as many players as the Rudy Gay-centered Raptors-Grizzlies-Pistons deal you are going to see a lot of fantasy value changes among the rosters involved.
