NBA FanDuel Lineup For December 1
We here at Fantasy CPR will work very hard and do everything that we can to bring you articles to prepare you and help you be successful with your bids and games at FanDuel and DraftKings just as we have with MLB and NBA. I always recommend that you do plenty of homework on your own as well as reading our articles. You will also want to make sure that you have access to your FanDuel lineup prior to kickoff in case a player is a last-minute inactive players.
There should be plenty of bargains and great plays in this weeks set of games and we will try to help you to be as good as you can and take home plenty of cash.
Here is my FanDuel lineup for December 1:
Next: Point Guards

Point Guards:
PG – Jordan Clarkson – Clarkson is coming off of two really nice games. He should be a really nice option going forward now that Kobe Bryant has released a statement regarding his plans to retire. Clarkson is playing well and has scored over 34 fantasy points in his last two games.
PG – Isaiah Canaan – Canaan has been a solid contributor over his last five games. He is not going to be the reason you strike the money, but he will certainly provide plenty of punch for the price that you are paying. He has been over 20 fantasy points in the last five games and at $4,400 that should be a good number to hope for from him.
Next: Shooting Guards

Shooting Guards:
SG – Eric Bledsoe – Bledsoe is one of my favorite players to watch and to own in fantasy leagues. I was not a fan of many of the other SG options that were available for this lineup. With only six games to choose from we faced a limited slate of players that I fell like can get us into the money. Bledsoe is typically over 30 fantasy points and has been over 40 fantasy points in three of his last seven games.
SG – Victor Oladipo – Oladipo seems to finally be fully recovered from his recent concussion. His minutes are on the upswing and his production is following suit. Oladipo is probably the future of the Magic franchise and he can be an important cornerstone of your daily league for this lineup.
Next: Small Forwards

Small Forwards:
SF – Robert Covington – Covington has busted out and is playing the way we all expected him to at the beginning of the season. He has had over 35 minutes in his last four games and he seems fully healthy. He has had over 33 fantasy points in four of his last five games and his production is off the charts for the price that he is being drafted at.
SF – T.J. Warren – Warren is a bit of a risky play as he is only a reserve right now. However, he has averaged nearly 30 minutes a game in his last four games and is looking like he could move into the starting lineup.
Next: Power Forwards and Center

Power Forwards:
PF – Anthony Davis – This is where we push all of our chips to the center of the table and there is not a better place to do so. Davis is the real deal and has been over 49 fantasy points in four of his last five games. Get him in your lineup.
PF – Dwight Powell – Powell is another risky player for us. However he fits the salary cap and he is getting minutes and production and fits the bill with a twinge of upside. In order to hit the money here you have to gamble and we have to hit on some of those gambles.
Next: Should You Buy Low On Gorgui Dieng?
Center:
C – Nikola Vucevic – Vucevic is one of the lesser known centers in the league. I love to own him on fantasy teams even though he can struggle with missing some games. Of course that is not an issue when you own him in FanDuel and I am expecting a good game from him in a solid match-up against the rookie Karl-Anthony Towns.
As always we thank you for stopping by and wish you FanDuelers the best of luck!
