FanDuel Lineup For May 14

We are having a blast bringing you our FanDuel lineups. We had a pretty good night on the 12th nearly tripling our investment and have a long way to go before our lineup for the 13th is over as of the posting of this article. I am really disliking this rule that FanDuel has that does not allow you to use more than four players from one team. It makes it oven harder when the game is being played with only four different teams. Oh well, I guess they have those rules for a reason and I was able to squeeze out another lineup that I feel pretty god about.

Our starting PGs for the 14th are Chris Paul and Jason Terry. Chris Paul seems to be pretty fully healthy now. He has posted to games in a row with nearly 40 fantasy points. He has also boosted up his minutes to 35 in the last game. Unfortunately that pretty much renders Austin Rivers as useless for us, but I found another cheap option in Jason Terry that seems to be heating up for the Houston Rockets. His fantasy points output has risen over his last several games and he is getting a pretty steady 30 minutes a game. At a $3,300 price tag that makes his roughly 25 fantasy points pretty reasonable.

Starting at SGs for our daily roster today will be J.J. Reddick and Jamal Crawford. I am a slight bit worried about running with these two guys from the same team, but I believe we will be safe for around 50 fantasy points between the two of these guys. If you are more comfortable rolling with one of the Cavaliers’ SGs I completely understand.

We have to continue to use LeBron James as one of our starting SFs. For our other SF we roll with Mike Dunleavy. James has been completely off the chain lately and I could not imagine trying to win in FanDuel without him. He had over 70 fantasy points last game and he is starting to play like he has something to prove. All fantasy sport aside I think it is about time he does so. Dunleavy had a great game for him in game three with 29 fantasy points. I hope he can keep it rolling as the Bulls will need everyone to be at their best in order to take this series to seven games.

At PF we are going to roll with Josh Smith and Tristan Thompson. Smith is playing well and seems to have earned the starting job over Terrence Jones. Thompson has earned the starting job due to an unfortunate injury to Kevin Love. Both guys are reasonably cheap options and have performed as cheap options. Obviously we are going to need these guys to play slightly above their averages in order to do well, but if we just get average games from them we should break even or slightly better.

We saved some money for the big man in the middle. Dwight Howard is going to be starting for us at C. We will be looking for another one of those 30 point, 20 rebound games that he has been putting up some lately. If he does that and we get some decent PF play we should be in good shape. As always we thank you for stopping by and wish you FanDuelers the best of luck!
