DraftKings Players To Watch: Larin Looks To Continue Scoring

DK PTW NYC

On Sunday, Orlando City will take on New York City FC (NYCFC) for their second match of the week in Camping World Stadium. After a disappointing 2-1 loss to Toronto FC, Orlando City will look to bounce back against their rivals. Here are some players to consider for your DraftKings roster.


Haven’t tried DraftKings? It’s easy. Each player is given a salary cap of $50,000 to draft their eleven player lineup. Players’ salaries are determined by their on-field performance, FPPG, or Fantasy Points Per Game.


Cyle Larin - 14.5 FPPG $9,400-- On Sunday, Larin added yet another goal to his score sheet. His tally is now at 13, and he is tied in fourth place for the MLS Golden Boot. He had a lot of strong chances against Toronto FC, and Head Coach Jason Kreis believed that he had a good chance of converting those chances. Look for Larin to connect with the offensive unit and find the back of the net. 


Joe Bendik- 7.7 FPPG $4,800 -- Bendik had more than one spectacular save against Toronto FC on Wednesday night. Going against one of the best offenses in the league-- including the top goal-scorer, Sebastian Giovinco-- is no easy task, and Bendik rose to the challenge. Look for him to come in with another clutch performance against NYCFC. 


Servando Carrasco - 1.8 FPPG $3,600 -- Head Coach Jason Kreis recently said that he sees Carrasco as a leader of this team, both on and off the field. Carrasco came on as a sub against Toronto, and will likely be part of Kreis’ rotation during this week’s games. Look for Carrasco to lead the defense and keep the ball upfield.
