FanDuel Lineups For April 27

We have another night or maybe two at the most of having a large slate of games to choose from so let us enjoy as there is already becoming a bit of a shortfall at certain positions. I find it on these nights that it is mildly difficult to find two SFs that I like to use. It can also be a bit hard to find a SG that I like.

Well enough complaining let’s get busy and roll out another 330 to 350 point night and see if we can get in the money.

At the PG spot we are rolling in the big time with Damian Lillard and Derrick Rose. I realize Derrick Rose let us down a bit the other night, but he was still good for a 25 point night which is not terrible for $6,100 price tag. If he rebounds the way I think he will, we will be very happy to have him in our FanDuel lineups for April 27. Damian Lillard has not been up to the standards that I have grown to expect of him, but I think he is due for a big game and this is strictly a gut instinct kind of thing.

For our off guards we will roll out with Jimmy Butler and Joe Johnson. Both players have been on their game recently and should be a source of around 70-80 fantasy points for us. Jimmy Butler has been a pure joy to watch as a Bulls fan and he continues to mature and grow his game in a way that really excites me for the future. Joe Johnson may not be worth his actual NBA salary any more, but at $6,400 his FanDuel price tag is pretty spot on. For the last four games Johnson has been around 35-37 fantasy points on a regular basis.

Now for my least favorite position of the night we will give you our SF picks. We are putting Nic Batum and Mike Dunleavy out there for us. Batum finally delivered a nice game for us on the 25th with a 40 point fantasy gem. He is certainly capable of those types of night on a daily basis. Dunleavy has been a decent bargain bin type of player and is about due for one of those odd 30 points fantasy nights for us. Plus at the $4,600 price tag he was the best option that I could find to roll with.

Now we get to the meat of the lineup and roll out our PF picks. We will start Paul Millsap and John Henson. Millsap exploded on the 25th and was over 50 fantasy points and that is exactly what we are hoping he does for us tonight. John Henson has been dancing around the 20 and 30 point games over his last few. The Bucks will need him to be strong for them and so will we.

Our big man in the middle is Al Horford. He had a little bit lower game out on the 25th, but I think he should bounce back strong tonight and help us to achieve our goals and get in the money and finish with a strong game.
