DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-February 4
High Value SG
Arron Afflalo-New York Knicks (4,700): If you don’t buy the Booker storyline or don’t have the money to get him under your salary cap, Afflalo is a solid alternative especially with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope unsure to play tonight when the Pistons host Afflalo and the Knicks. Afflalo has at least 17 points in four of his last five games and has reached at least 25 fantasy points in each of those four contests. He has been playing big minutes with the current injury issues in New York and has logged at least 38 minutes in four of his last five. Given that much time on the floor, expect him to make an impact tonight while being a relatively safe pickup at under 5K. ∗∗∗
Terrence Ross-Toronto Raptors (4,200): Ross played 27 minutes in each of the Raptors last two games due in part to the injury to James Johnson. Ross has provided solid numbers in his expanded time and has at least 22 fantasy points in four of his last six overall. He had 16 points, three boards, a steal, and an assist on Tuesday against Phoenix. ∗∗
Bryce Dejean-Jones-New Orleans Pelicans (4,200): “Hot Mustard” started again last night for the Pelicans but was a little bit of a fantasy letdown with only eight points, three rebounds, an assist, and a steal for just 14.8 fantasy points. He had posted three straight games with over 21 fantasy points before that, though, so he’s still worth a look if Tyreke Evans is out again tonight and Jones gets another start for the Pelicans. ∗∗
