Dream 11 Picks
Point Guard
Jamal Murray was Denver Nuggets’ game winner the last time he took to the court. His spin and slams were untenable, leaving even this well versed and stringent Utah Jazz side in a quandary as he lead his side to a win with a staggering 42 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds on the day.
P.J. Dozier will be accompanying him as his partner for the imminent tie. At a measly 5.5 credits, he becomes too good an option to let slip out of our hands with him registering 3 points, 3 assists and 4 rebounds the last time around.
Shooting Guard
Donovan Mitchell has been the fulcrum of his side’s attack all season long and the playoffs have been no different. He was at his formidable best once again in game 4 as he exploited the corners and midrange region to pull off a behemoth 30 points on the day.
Jordan Clarkson will once again be his partner for the impending scrimmage. His ability to pop up with treys and open the zone has made him a consistent performer, a player who has regularly lined up points from the deep in the playoffs.
The most heavily indulged in docket of our Dream 11 side also finds representation for Denver Nuggets in the form of Torrey Craig. Although he’s waned in form, we were hardly dissuaded in making him our pick for the day given his ability to pull off handed shots.
Small Forward
After a slight slump. Joe Ingles came up with a steady source of points in game 4. With 13 points on the day, his performance helped Utah Jazz to remain in the affair all across the four quarters with his crossovers and handles leaving Denver in a tizzy.
Power Forward
Georges Niang will be partnering up with him for the forthcoming contest. Although he’s only going to get a limited role in the clash, his shooting arounds have translated into neat amounts of floating jump points to see him be indulged in by us.
Centre
Denver Nuggets’ centre, Nikola Jokic has never left the sanctum of our side this series and his presence will once again grace our framework. His jump shots, ability to maraud his way into the paint and emerge as a formidable name under the post saw him send down 31 points, 4 assists and 6 rebounds in game 4.
Star Player
His imperious form at the moment makes Jamal as must have pick as the star player while Jokic is the pro player.
