NBA DFS: Best DraftKings Showdown strategy for Friday's Grizzlies-Timberwolves matchup

The Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns, and Dallas Mavericks clinched second-round berths on Thursday and only one one game will make up Friday's slate. The Memphis Grizzlies have a chance to close out the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Target Center in the lone game of the night. There aren't many DFS options, so fantasy managers could have to get creative when locking in their lineups. We've broken down an ideal showdown strategy for Friday's lone matchup here by highlighting key captain and utility targets alongside one player to fade.

Ameer Tyree got his start in NBA DFS over four years ago. The former DraftKings Nation betting and fantasy writer spent over a year and a half breaking down basketball slates to build optimal lineups there. Ameer highlighted the top plays at four of the five positions on Thursday and has now turned his attention to Friday's one-game slate.

One play Ameer loves: Desmond Bane at captain for $12,900. "Bane got off to a slow start in the first two games of this series but has been on fire for the last three. The Grizzlies sharpshooter has averaged 28.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while shooting 49.1 percent from the field and 51.8 percent from deep since Game 3." Ameer says about the matchup.
