The Thursday night NBA spotlight has some good matchups for us tonight even though there are only four games on the schedule. With eight teams taking the floor there are some interesting ways to build your DFS fantasy basketball team for tonight. To see who I think you need to consider in your lineup, check out my DraftKings daily picks for this Thursday, November 10.

The fun tonight starts at 8:00 PM ET when TNT starts their double-header with Dwyane Wade back in Miami when the Bulls try to beat the Heat. At the same time in a non-national TV game, the Pelicans continue their quest for their first win of the season as they head to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks. At 9:00, a potential up-tempo track meet tips off in Denver as the Nuggets and Warriors go head to head, and the TNT double-header wraps up with a 10:30 tip in Sacramento where the Kings host the suddenly-solid Lakers. The Bulls and Warriors are the two teams on the second night of back-to-backs while the Kings are the only team playing tonight that has to worry about a matchup tomorrow.

To help you sort through tonight’s options from those eight teams, I’ve put together my favorite fantasy plays on the next few slides in my DraftKings daily picks. My goal each day is to give you the information you need to build your own customized lineup to get you a win however you participate in DFS contests. In order to help you find what you need, I’ve separated my picks by position and price. You’ll find two slides per position–the first slide will feature the best high-salary options followed by some high-value options which cost less but still offer solid returns. Each slide contains at least two options with extras thrown in where possible.

I rank my picks for each contest using stars after each explanation to show the relative strength of the pick. For a full explanation of the rating system, check out the last slide of this post, but in short, more stars means more confidence (on a point-per-dollar basis). Also on the final slide of the post, you can see how I’m putting together the best of my picks into my personal lineup for today’s competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but you’re welcome to check out my lineups and use them as a place to get started.

Just a reminder that in my DraftKings daily picks, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer DraftKings pricing and scoring.
