FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-January 11

High Salary PF

Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (9,800): Green and the Warriors big men will have to deal with Chris Bosh and Hassan Whiteside on the defensive end, so I think he’ll play a good amount of minutes unless the game turns into a blowout due to the Heat’s fatigue (three games in four nights).  Green scored a quick 25 points on Saturday against the Kings and added nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks, and two steals.  His 45.8 fantasy points fave him at least 40 in five of his last six games a span which includes four triple-doubles.  He’s pricey tonight, but if he plays his usual minutes he can definitely be an elite producer in almost every fantasy-relevant category. ∗∗

Pau Gasol-Chicago Bulls (8,700): Gasol has been extremely productive for the Bulls while Joakim Noah has been sidelined.  He did have a bit of a down game against Atlanta on Saturday, but had three straight games of 43 fantasy points or more before that letdown.  Gasol is a double-double threat every night he’s on the floor and has been contributing multiple blocks and good assist numbers lately as well.  He’s a little cheaper than Draymond and has less risk of a blowout stealing his minutes. However, he does have the possibility that Joakim Noah could swipe a few of his minutes which keeps him from being an absolute must-play. ∗∗∗

LaMarcus Aldridge-San Antonio Spurs (7,100): Aldridge got a maintenance day last week sitting out Wednesday’s game against the Jazz and he played well in his return on Friday with 16 points and nine rebounds against the Knicks.  His 27.8 fantasy points give him at least that many in six of his last seven games.  If the Spurs decide to sit other stars tonight against the Nets, Aldridge could be more the focus of the offense, but assuming everyone plays he’s a solid, low-risk play even though the may not be able to quite get to the 35 fantasy points that would be a full-value return. ∗∗∗
