FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-January 13
High Value PF
Ryan Anderson-New Orleans Pelicans (5,500): Anderson has been solid in place of Anthony Davis and has played over 40 minutes in each of New Orleans last two games. He has at least 25 fantasy points in four of his last five games and is in line for another productive night if Davis is again a no-go. Last night against LA, even without his shot going Anderson scored 15 points to go with seven rebounds for a solid 25.4 fantasy points. With Davis-∗∗ Without Davis-∗∗∗∗
Cody Zeller-Charlotte Hornets (4,900): Given his current role with the Hornets, Zeller is a low-risk play tonight against the Hawks since he’ll log plenty of minutes in the front court. He has at least 19 fantasy points in nine of his last ten games with three games of at least 30 fantasy points in his last seven. He is usually around a low-level double-double, and he and the Hornets always play much better at “The Hive” where they’ll host the Hawks tonight. ∗∗
Jabari Parker-Milwaukee Bucks (4,800): Parker has scored in double-digits in six straight games for the Bucks after pouring in 16 last night against the Bulls. He has at least 24 fantasy points in three of his last five games thanks to solid rebounds and steals numbers as well. With the Wizards thinned out in the front court, look for Parker to have another solid game tonight especially since he played slightly reduced minutes (27) last night. ∗∗∗
Nene Hilario-Washington Wizards (4,100): Nene made a spot start for Marcin Gortat on Monday and finished with 22.4 fantasy points in 20 minutes on 14 points, two rebounds, and two assists. He could be in line for another start tonight against the Bucks since Gortat hasn’t been released from the hospital where he was being looked at for an infection in his knee. If Nene starts, he’s a solid cheap play tonight. If no Gortat-∗∗∗
Marreese Speights-Golden State Warriors (3,600): Speights is only worth a look if we get confirmation before 7:00 that Draymond Green is getting the night off. If that’s the case, Speights could get enough playing time to be a significant steal. He had 12 points and ten rebounds in 24 minutes the last time he got extended playing time which was against the Lakers back on January 5. He can definitely produce when given playing time, so look to him as a great cheap play if Green is out. No Draymond-∗∗∗∗∗
