DOUBLE DIPPIN': August 21-27
Aug 20 2023
Following a light week last week, we should have some decent volume of two-steps for this week. Seven teams face seven-game weeks, while only one (Milwaukee) has a five-game slate. More options are generally good news for stream-searchers, but the balance of accepting ratio risk for counting-stat gains requires judicious study of the available options. That's why we are here! Below, we'll examine a few of the more interesting and/or difficult-to-evaluate two-step candidates. As always, you can find all of this week's matchups and ratings in the frequently-updated 8-day view.
Strong 2-start options

| Aaron Nola | 2.2 | vSF | 1.8 | vSTL | 2.0 | |
