Most of today’s games actually fit into the afternoon slots with eight games typically categorized as “Early” and four games as “Late” which tip at 7:30 or later.  Make sure you know when you enter your league for today whether it includes the early only, late only, or full day action.  There are some intriguing games on the schedule for today with the Mavs and Grizzlies playing in Memphis late this afternoon, the Bulls and Cavs facing off tonight in Cleveland, and the Lakers and Suns wrapping things up in what should be a high-scoring game in the desert.

With so many ways to play today, you’ll need to make sure you are aware of all your options. To help put your lineup together,  check out my FanDuel daily picks on the following slides. Here’s what you can expect–on each slide, there are a two high-salary options and two high-value options.  The value plays cost less, but they should still provide solid production.  Depending on your tolerance for risk, you can go with a safer balanced lineup or go high-risk with some cheap picks which will leave you the cash to get the big names.

All salary and fantasy point references on the position slides are based on FanDuel’s scoring system and salary structure.  However, there are many options to choose from for your daily sports league, so I’ve included both my FanDuel and DraftKings lineup on the final slide of the post. Since there are early, late, and all-inclusive options for today, I’ve included my lineup for each scenario on that page as well

Since it always seems like something changes at the last minute, follow our Fansided Fantasy feed on Twitter @FansidedFantasy where I’ll let you know my final lineup before tipoff if there are any changes and keep you up to date on any significant players who are out of today’s lineup.
