DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-January 19

High Value SF

P.J. Tucker-Phoenix Suns (4,700): If you are searching for a SF option around 4,500 you have to choose between C.J., T.J., and P.J. The most consistent of the three options lately has been P.J. Tucker who has at least 20 fantasy points in seven of his last eight games.  He doesn’t get most of his value from scoring, but he always has good rebounding and assist numbers while chipping in steals and blocks as well.  Tucker can go off like he did against the Thunder on New Years Eve for 22 points and seven boards, but he typically has five to ten points to go with five to ten rebounds and two to five assists.  The numbers aren’t eye-popping in any one particular category, but he’s consistent enough to count on unlike T.J. Warren whose production is a roller coaster despite his undeniable upside. ∗∗∗

Shabazz Muhammad-Minnesota Timberwolves (4,400): Muhammad has scored double-digit points in eight of his last ten games and has 15 fantasy points in each of those eight games.  In his two “dud” performances during that stretch, he played under 17 minutes while in each of the other games he played over 23.  If he gets his time on the floor, Muhammad can score and give you solid rebounding as well.  He’s a cheap flier at under 4K, but he has the upside to produce against the Pelicans if he plays his usual minutes. ∗∗
