FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-February 22
High Value C
Robin Lopez-New York Knicks (5,800): RoLo had a huge game Saturday with 26 points and 16 rebounds for a very nice 46.2 fantasy points. He has three games this month with at least 39 fantasy points, but he has also been held under 20 fantasy points in three of his last five contests. He’s extremely inconsistent, but he has huge upside which is hard to ignore at under 6K. ∗∗
Alex Len-Phoenix Suns (4,600): Len laid a royal burn on me and the rest of his owners last Friday when he was a late surprise inactive against the Rockets. With Markieff Morris out of town and Tyson Chandler dealing with a shoulder injury, there’s lots to like with the Phoenix big man as long as he can get his own injuries behind him. He played yesterday against the Spurs and was impressive in his 24 minutes finishing with 23 points and 13 boards on his way to 35.6 fantasy points. Tyson Chandler missed yesterday’s game but Len still only played 24 minutes. If he gets that much playing time tonight, he’s a double-double threat I like a lot against the Clippers in the late game. I’m hoping that the Suns give Len a long look the rest of the way since he could be a part of their future while the rest of the front court options are more journeyman types. ∗∗∗∗
Timofey Mozgov-Cleveland Cavaliers (3,700): Since Cleveland will need all their bigs to slow down Andre Drummond, I like Mozgov to be a solid cheap play tonight. He has at least 14 fantasy points in five of his last six gams and had 22.1 fantasy points against the Pistons the last time these teams met scoring 12 points to go with eight boards in 19 minutes. He has scored 11 points in each of his last two games and has played at least 18 minutes in each of his last six. ∗∗
