The best NBA sleepers at each position for FanDuel daily fantasy basketball on Sunday, Jan. 31

The NBA has been in full force over the past week with there seemingly not being a truly slow night in the league as of late. That trend continues on Sunday as there are seven games on the docket, meaning that there will be 14 teams in action. That means that there are 14 teams for daily fantasy basketball players to build their FanDuel lineups through and 14 teams for DFS players to dig through to try and find the best sleeper picks on Sunday, Jan. 31.

On Saturday when there were still a solid number of games on the schedule, there were a number of quality sleepers that emerged for big nights in FanDuel scoring. Indiana Pacers center Jordan Hill ($4,000) came up with a big outing as he put up 43.9 fantasy points. Moreover, Memphis Grizzlies small forward Jeff Green ($5,200) had a nice outing as he put up 37.9 fantasy points against the Sacramento Kings. Philadelphia 76ers reserve point guard Isaiah Canaan ($3,700) joined in on the fun as well as he put up 33.8 fantasy points in a surprising outing against the Golden State Warriors.

The contests on Sunday for FanDuel are set up a bit strangely as there are no all-day contests. Subsequently, players playing in the 3:30 p.m. ET matchup between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Chicago Bulls weren’t considered for this in lieu of looking at the larger “main” slate for the contests. That leaves the Atlanta Hawks, Miami Heat, Boston Celtics, and Orlando Magic all playing with 6 p.m. ET start times. The Phoenix Suns take on the Dallas Mavericks at 7 p.m. ET, followed by the Golden State Warriors and the New York Knicks at 7:30 p.m. ET. The night will then be ended with the Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Portland Trail Blazers at 9 p.m. ET and the Charlotte Hornets vs. Los Angeles Lakers at 9:30 p.m. ET.

As always, be sure to stay in touch with the FanSided fantasy basketball hub daily for all your DFS needs. There is advice for both FanDuel and DraftKings on a daily basis that ranges from the best high salary plays to the best values to obviously the best sleepers. Advice for season-long fantasy basketball leagues can be found there also.

With that out of the way, these are the best NBA sleepers for FanDuel daily fantasy basketball on Sunday, Jan. 31.
