Top PG Picks:
Russell Westbrook: FD – ($10,300)
Russ is in a great spot tonight on FanDuel as Houston gets set to take on Orlando for the first time this NBA season. It’s obvious that Harden will have the most usage in this one. However, Westbrook has begun to get comfortable with him as the season has progressed. He’s now recorded at least 49 points on FanDuel in each of his last 5 games. Orlando has a solid defense and will do their best to stifle Harden’s production. Look for Russ to have a floor of 45 fantasy points tonight.
Eric Bledsoe – FD: ($6,700)
If Antetokounmpo misses tonight’s action, Bledsoe is an automatic lock in my book. Giannis missed Milwaukee’s last game and Bledsoe took full advantage. He scored 29 points, 6 assists, 3 rebounds, and 2 steals in just a whopping 25 minutes. It’s a pretty large NBA slate tonight and fitting Bledsoe into your lineup for $6,700 shouldn’t be a problem. He should have a floor of 35 points on FanDuel tonight.
Kendrick Nunn – FD: ($5,500)
Although Nunn is a rookie, he’s clearly not afraid to let the ball fly. As evidenced in his last game where he dropped 36 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1 steal in 42 minutes. He’s been pretty sporadic as of late, but his playing time is through the roof. Dragic, Winslow, and Waiters are all sidelined with injuries at the moment which continues to boost Nunn’s value. If he can get you 25-30 FanDuel points tonight, it’s a no brainer for the cheap price-tag.
Emmanuel Muddiay – FD: ($3,500)
Mudiay is my sleeper pick at the PG position for tonight’s Fanduel slate. Utah is still without starting PG Mike Conley which has allowed Mudiay extended minutes. He’s not the most flashy player, but he can put up stats in a hurry. He’s put up at least 22 points on FanDuel in two out of his last three games. If he gets 20 points on FanDuel tonight, then it would make him a steal.
Top SG Picks:
James Harden – FD: ($12,200)
Harden is difficult to ignore most nights regardless of the opponent. In his last game, he dropped 55 points, 8 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 blocks in 41 minutes of action. He’s averaging just under 60 FanDuel points per game this season. Although Orlando has a solid defense, I still think Harden will ‘get his’ tonight. I don’t think he should be in all your lineups though. If you can afford him without making yourself vulnerable at another position tonight, do it.
Zach LaVine – FD: ($8,100)
LaVine continues to impress as he just dropped 35 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 block, and 1 steal in just 25 minutes. Tonight’s he going up against the Charlotte Hornets who he scored 49 points against just 3-weeks ago. He is very reasonably priced tonight and if he can eclipse 35-40 fantasy points he’ll be worth it. He’s the clear number 1 scoring option on the team.
Devonte Graham – FD: ($7,900)
Graham is having himself a great start to the campaign. He’s currently averaging 20 PPG, 7.5 APG, and 3.7 RPG. Charlotte has given him the Green light and he is not disappointing. He’s scored at least 29 points in four out of his last five games. Look for him to have a floor of 35 tonight against Chicago.
Khris Middleton – FD: ($6,700)
Middleton is a great play tonight for DFS. Giannis might not play tonight which bodes extremely well for Middleton’s fantasy value. He is very efficient even when Giannis is on the floor. Tonight he will take on Memphis and this should be a semi-competitive game. His price tag is just $6,700 and he’s looking at a floor of 35 points on FanDuel.
Lou Williams – FD: ($6,000)
Williams will be thrusted into a larger role for the near future while Beverley and Shamet recover from injuries. Williams’s is the type of player where minutes played correlates directly with his fantasy output. He will definitely see a spike in his minutes tonight and he’s pretty cheap considering his price-tag. Look for him to have a floor of 28 points on FanDuel.
Top SF Picks:
LeBron James – FD: ($10,600)
LBJ will take on Miami tonight for the second time this season. In the first matchup, LeBron dropped 25 points, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds in 36 minutes. He is the focal point on offense every night. When he doesn’t light up the scoring column, he drops 10+ dimes. You also have to believe he wants to show out on Miami’s home court. Look for him to have a floor of 45 points on FanDuel tonight.
Tobias Harris – FD: ($7,800)
Harris has been one of the more consistent players on Philly this season. He’s now scored at least 20 points in six out of his last seven games. If Horford misses tonight’s game, Harris will be an automatic lock for me. He’s getting a plethora of shot opportunities and rebounds on a nightly basis. Look for him to have a floor of 35 fantasy points on FanDuel tonight.
Jonathan Isaac – FD: ($7,000)
Isaac is one of my favorite plays on FanDuel tonight. His defensive prowess alone makes home roster-worthy on most nights. Tonight he has a solid matchup against the Rockets who have an up-tempo game style of play. The Rockets are solid offensively; but defensively they have struggled with consistency this year. Look for Isaac to have a floor of 30 points on FanDuel tonight.
Maurice Harkless – FD: ($4,200)
Moe makes for an intriguing play tonight in DFS formats as his price tag is dirt cheap. He has recorded at least 22 points on FanDuel in each of his last three games. The Clippers are without Pat Bev and Shamet tonight. This should boost Moe’s fantasy stock once again. For $4,300, he’ll just need to get 20-ish points to make him worth it.
Top PF Picks:
Anthony Davis – FD: ($11,200)
AD the most expensive PF on the slate tonight which should be no surprise. From a fantasy perspective, AD is everything you can ask for because he gets it done on both ends of the floor. Tonight he will face off against Miami. Against them earlier this year, Davis dropped 26 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 blocks, and 2 steals in 34 minutes of action. Look for him to be aggressive early in this one and to have a floor of 50 points on FanDuel.
Domantas Sabonis – FD: ($9,000)
It’s no secret that Indiana has plenty of mouths to feed on offense. However, Sabonis has been the most consistent player on the team. He’s currently averaging 18.2 PPG, 13.5 RPG, and 3.9 APG. Sabonis has now recorded a double-double in ten straight games. The Hawks have a very poor defense so I expect Sabonis to score and rebound at ease tonight. He should have a floor of 38 fantasy points tonight.
Bam Adebayo – FD: ($8,800)
Bam is one of my favorite players to watch because of how hard he plays every time he’s on the floor. He has emerged as a great number two scoring option; second to Jimmy Butler. At the moment Miami is a little banged up so I’m expecting Bam to shoulder a large portion of the offensive load tonight. In his last game, he mustered up 30 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists. Those are career highs for him in points and assists. I can see him to having a floor of 35 points on FanDuel tonight in a tough game against the Lakers.
Jaren Jackson – FD: ($6,800)
Jackson has the build and skill-set to be an all-star in just a few years. However, his one vice so far during his young career is consistency. He can sometimes get into foul trouble early which is a DFS nightmare. However, he’s really turned the corner over the past few weeks. He’s recorded at least 32 points on FanDuel in each of his last four games. On top of that, Brandon Clarke is still out with an injury. That will allow Jackson to see 30+ minutes tonight which should lead to a solid fantasy line. He has a floor of 29 points on FanDuel tonight.
Top C Picks:
Joel Embiid – FD: ($10,200)
If you are going to pay up at the center position tonight, I’d go with Embiid. He has a solid matchup against his former teammate Jahlil Okafor. I also think he will dominate the glass tonight as New Orleans is not a great rebounding team. He has a high-ceiling every time he takes the floor and if this game remains close, you’ll most likely regret not picking him. He should have a floor of 45 fantasy points tonight.
Rudy Gobert – FD: ($8,700)
Gobert has been Stellar for Utah over the past week while Mike Conley remains sidelined. That in turn allows Gobert to enjoy a slight uptick on the offense-end as well. Tonight he will take on Golden State and the one time they played this year Gobert went for 8 points, 19 rebounds, 1 assist, 7 blocks, and 1 steal. Look for him to have a floor of 42 fantasy points tonight.
Alex Len – FD: ($4,600)
Len is my sleeper pick at the center position tonight. He is priced at a very low $4,600 on FanDuel. He has recorded at least 20 fantasy points in each of his last five games. Back on November’s 29th, Len racked up 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 steal in 28 minutes against Indiana. He is a bench player and I can see him exploiting Indiana when Myles Turner and/or Sabonis are off the court. If he puts up 25 fantasy points tonight, he’ll pay off.
