As part of ESPN Fantasys efforts to give daily gamers intel on whom to target in DFS, our fantasy golf experts are here to share which players they view as building blocks for this weekends event. The panel for the WGC-Bridgestone features ESPN.coms Matt Barrie, Jonathan Coachman, Will Harris, Joe Kaiser, Jason Sobel, FantasyGolfInsiders Jeff Bergerson, Zach Turcotte and Jason Rouslin, and Dailyfantasybootcamps David Jayne.Note: Golfer salaries listed are for DraftKings.Jeff Bergerson -- Jason Dufner ($8,500)One of the areas I am looking at this week is the ability to hit greens, and that is something the Jason Dufner does very well. He has two top 10s in his last three events played, including a T-8 at The US Open. Dufner finished 66th last year at Firestone, but the two years before that he finished fourth and seventh, respectively. He has a tremendous amount of upside and is only priced as the 17th highest-priced player, which to me appears to be great value.Jonathan Coachman -- Shane Lowry ($8,700)I am going with the defending champion Shane Lowry. He had the lead Sunday at the US Open and proved last year that he loves Firestone. I think he goes back-to-back.Zachary Turcotte -- Kevin Na ($7,300)There are multiple styles of play that can get the job done at the WGC Bridgestone. Some of the bombers have done well here over the years, but it has not just been the big hitters that have had success. With a Par-70 setup, and one of the Par-5 holes clocking in at 667 yards, the big hitters are not going to have quite as much of an edge, so a player like Kevin Na makes for a nice fit at the lower end of the salary range. At two other recent challenging Par-70 courses, Na acquitted himself well with a seventh-place finish at the US Open and a fourth-place finish at The Heritage. With two consecutive top-25 finishes at Firestone, Na makes for a great play in all formats this week.Jason Rouslin -- Smylie Kaufman ($6,900)Finally returning to the form of earlier in the season, Smylie seemed to figure it out this past week at the QLN en route to finishing tied for 10th. Even though this will be his first time at Firestone, he drives the ball well and also ranks well in approach shots from key distances this week at the South Course at Firestone Country Club. He played really well in his first WGC event back in March and without the pressure of a cut to deal with, Smylie should have plenty of opportunities to score some points and outperform his price.Taras Pitra -- Scott Piercy ($7,100)If you arent aware, Piercy has been hitting top-25 finishes at a 50 percent clip this year. Obviously, with his good play at the US Open, hell see some increase in ownership, but I dont think itll be enough to be concerned about. Piercys ballstriking has been a thing of beauty for the past few weeks and up until last week his putter and wedge game had been the only thing holding him back from breaking out. Im hoping he continues to build off of his play at the US Open and really takes advantage of a good opportunity this week.Will Harris -- Jason Dufner ($8,500)A winner at PGA West back in January, Dufner has made 13 of 15 cuts this season and comes in having cracked the top 10 in two of his past three starts. He also has two top-10 finishes in three starts at Firestone Country Club. Dufner ranks seventh versus this field in adjusted scoring over the past eight weeks and seventh on tour in Greens In Regulation this season. Hes too low at just 17th in the DraftKings pecking order.Jason Sobel -- Justin Rose ($10,200)Three years ago, Rose nursed a shoulder injury at the beginning of the year, missing a few months of action. I remember him telling me at the time that he was looking at it from an optimistic perspective, thinking that the injury might keep him fresher later in the year. And less than six months afterward, there he was winning his first career major title at the US Open. Coming off a recent back injury, I feel like Rose is prepping for a similar return this time. He was T-3 here a year ago and could be primed for another big week.Matt Barrie -- Jason Dufner ($8,500)Amidst all of the storylines to emerge from Oakmont, and of the recent weeks of the PGA Tour season, one of the quietest to this point has been Jason Dufner. Dufner played well at the U.S. Open to finish T-8, after a good showing at Colonial a few weeks before. His game agrees with Firestone, host of this weeks WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, having finished in the top-10 twice. As big of an enigma that Dufner can be, take him to show up this week.David Jayne -- Zach Johnson ($8,300)Hes got a great affinity for Firestone, which is a tight, Midwest-style golf course with bent grass thats very similar to the courses he grew up on. His current form includes some solid performances including a top 10 at Oakmont in his last start. Zach will rely heavily on his accuracy off the tee, which mirrors others that have had success here like Jim Furyk and Matt Kuchar, who combined have finished in the top 25 in 11 of their past 12 starts. Coming into this event last year, Zach was returning after a few weeks off with the Claret Jug, which may explain why he was unable to notch his 9th top-25 finish in what was his 12th start here.Joe Kaiser -- Brooks Koepka ($9,900)Koepka finished T-6 in his debut here last year and was the only golfer to shoot under par in all four rounds. Few on tour can hit it as far and putt as well as Koepka, who has two second-place finishes and a T-13 in his last three tournaments. With six others priced higher than Koepka, its hard to find better value on the board. Jerseys China Cheap .

The Celtics closed out their first preseason under Stevens on Wednesday night with a 101-97 victory over the Brooklyn Nets, who rested a lot of their lineup including former Celtics Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce. LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Kentuckys latest highly touted freshman class showed their expected potential, but only after a boost from the veterans.Isaiah Briscoe scored 17 points, Derek Willis added 15 and No. 2 Kentucky went on to an 87-64 season-opening victory over Stephen F. Austin on Friday night.An opener expected to highlight the Wildcats latest group of talented freshmen instead saw veterans such as sophomore guard Briscoe and Willis, a senior forward, shoulder the load. They combined to make 11 of 18 from the field while their experience offset the newcomers early shooting troubles. Seven-foot sophomore Isaac Humphries (9 points, 8 rebounds) filled a big inside void with 6-10 freshman Bam Adebayo (five points) hampered by foul trouble.Senior guard Mychal Mulder, a transfer who scored just 12 points last season for the Wildcats, had eight on a team-high two 3-pointers.Before the game Coach (John Calipari) reminded us that theyre young and its their first game, so make sure everything out there is in order, said Briscoe, who worked out for several NBA teams last spring before deciding to return for a second season.Several freshmen did their part with forward Wenyen Gabriel scoring 10 first-half points off the bench. Guard DeAaron Fox added 12 points and broke a 36-year-old program record for assists in an opener with 12, while Malik Monk had 10 second-half points.Isaiah Traylor scored 15 points and Leon Gilmore III had 12 with 11 rebounds for Stephen F. Austin, which lost the debut of coach Kyle Keller. The Lumberjacks outrebounded Kentucky 36-28 but committed 28 turnovers leading to 32 points.BIG PICTUREStephen F. Austin: Despite losing eight players from last years team, the Lumberjacks early on resembled the competitive NCAA Tournament team that upset third-seeded West Virginia before losing by five points to No. 6 seed Notre Dame in the second. They slowed the pace before the Wildcats height and depth took over.Keller became first of three SFA coaches this century to lose his debut, but the Lumberjacks should make a strong push for their first straight Southland Conference regular season title.ddddddddddddWhen we look back on this game, were going to draw on it, said Keller, who took over after being a Texas A&M assistant. Were going to get a lot of confidence from this.Kentucky: Willis followed up last seasons breakout by being the steadying force early, making 3 of 4 field goals with two blocks. He finished with five rebounds. Humphries was a pleasant surprise with Adebayo spending much of the first half on the bench. The Wildcats shot 50 percent but were still outrebounded.Were one of those teams that is so young, Calipari said, not disciplined enough defensively, should be a better rebounding team. We got outrebounded.POLL IMPLICATIONSKentucky is likely to remain in position and wont face that question until after meeting No. 12 Michigan State next week in New York.SELFLESS PLAYCalipari preaches unselfishness to players and brags about his succession of standout point guards that have set the tone, most recently by Tyler Ulis. Fox offered glimpses of being Kentuckys next floor general by breaking Dirk Minniefields old mark of 11 assists against Butler on Nov. 27, 1982.I didnt even realize I was doing it, Fox said. I knew I wasnt shooting the ball well. Teammates were cutting and finishing when I was passing the ball to them, so all the credit is to them.BAMS ROUGH NIGHTAdebayo was expected to get most of the attention because of his NBA-caliber game and build. But his physical style drew two quick fouls and four overall, leaving him with just one rebound in 15 minutes.UP NEXTStephen F. Austin: Returns home to host Longwood on Tuesday and regroup from the loss.Kentucky: Hosts Canisius on Sunday in the first meeting between the schools since 1998. The Wildcats have won previous games against the Golden Griffins and seek a strong tuneup before facing No. 12 Michigan State on Tuesday in New York.---AP college basketball: collegebasketball.ap.org ' ' '
