IMPORTANT: NBA DFS is completely different than any other sport. Players get ruled out five minutes before games and you HAVE TO BE READY to pivot. I will update this article as close to lineup lock as possible with any big news, but play it safe and stay on top of the news yourself.
I refer to FanDuel pricing today.
12/21 NBA DFS Point Guard
- Russell Westbrook ($9,200 FD) Update: The Suns just announced Rubio doubtful, Ayton out, and Saric and Kaminsky both questionable. It feels like they might be throwing in the towel on this game. Makes playing Westbrook for upside scarier. I may move off.
- Damian Lillard ($8,700 FD)
- George Hill ($4,400 FD) Expect low 20’s points, at $4,400 it works if your spend ups hit
- Update: Tyler Johnson ($3,600 FD) if starting. Rubio just ruled out.
12/21 NBA DFS Shooting Guard
- James Harden ($11.100 FD) Harden against Booker defense is too good to pass up. Big upside day for Harden (60+), and that’s when you play him. Update: The Suns just announced Rubio doubtful, Ayton out, and Saric and Kaminsky both questionable. It feels like they might be throwing in the towel on this game. Makes playing Harden for upside scarier. I may move off.
- Zach LaVine ($8,200 FD) I love to target the Piston’s guards (Forget about Walker last night). Lavine gets big minutes in a plus matchup and has been hot lately. Nothing not to like.
- CJ McCollum ($7,600 FD) Been crushing lately, Wolves are a great team to target with SG.
- Andrew Wiggins ($7,800 FD) If Towns out only
- Lou Williams ($5,100 FD) Too cheap and Spurs guards are not playing great defense. I also like to play guys the game after an ejection, and that is what we have with Lou. More gut and price play than anything, but I like it.
- Donte DiVincenzo ($5,300 FD) He is passing the eye test lately. He looks pretty great the past three games, and not just from a boxscore point of view. He is still getting a bump with no Bledsoe and is underpriced.
12/21 Small Forward
- Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11,300 FD) You want him. He has spoken openly about his love for playing in the Garden in seasons past. Triple Double upside with no Bledsoe. The Bucks have been blowing everyone out it seems, so there is that concern. If it stays close, ABC smashes.
- Paul George ($9,000 FD)
- Kelly Oubre ($5,900 FD) Too cheap for his upside in a close game with what seems to be a limited Booker.
- Danuel House ($4,100 FD) This is too cheap for a guy getting 30 minutes against the Suns
Note: Keeping an eye on Rudy Gay who popped up as questionable.
12/21 NBA DFS Power Forward
- Kawhi Leonard ($9,100 FD) Safe floor, expect mid 40’s with the upside of 55. Better for cash than GPP. If you play him, he won’t be the one that kills you. You just have to hit some value plays.
- Lauri Markkanen ($6,200 FD) He has been shooting better lately, gets an easy matchup against Detroit and is underpriced.
- Nemanja Bjelica ($4,800 FD) Great play and price if Bog out again
- Robert Covington ($5,500 FD) Only if no KAT
Note: Memphis guys will get a significant bump if Jonas Valanciunas is ruled out
Note: Saric and Kaminsky both questionable. If they are both out I will give a big boost to Cameron Johnson.
12/21 DFS Center
- Andre Drummond ($9,600 FD) Not worried about B2B after a blowout. Still no Blake and gets a nice matchup against Chicago
- Timberwolves Starting Center: Karl Anthony Towns ($10,200 FD) or Gorgui Dieng ($4,200 FD)
- Joel Embiid ($10,000 FD) Larger blowout risk in this game, however, Emiid has a fantastic matchup and I would be shocked if he didn’t exceed 45 FD points here. If the game stays close (which I don’t think it does) he would have 60+ upside
- Hassan Whiteside ($8,600 FD) Really good price for him, however, I have his raw points slightly below the other three. At $8,600 FD that still gets the job done.
- Punt: Aron Baynes ($4,400 FD) Ayton out
