Points, Rebounds, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Free Throws Made, 3 Point Made, Field Goal %, 3 Point %
Here are some specialists you can target to ensure you consistently perform in a specific category.
Assists
Davion Mitchell (Heat)
Davion Mitchell is currently 7th in the assists per game leaderboard. He is a highly efficient passer when comparing his assist production compared to his usage and scoring. Even with the return of Tyler Herro and continued emergence of Jaime Jaquez, Davion continues to play lots of minutes. An added bonus is his steal production, where he is averaging well over 1 steal per game. If you have enough assets, Davion is an excellent addition to help you lock down your assists category, and his price is relatively low. Dynatyze has Davion Mitchell as a slight buy candidate, especially for win now category teams.
