FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-February 26
High Value PF
Myles Turner-Indiana Pacers (5,800): Another emerging young option at PF is Myles Turner who is getting tons of time and usage for the Pacers. Turner has at least 27 fantasy points in six of his last seven games and posted 32.2 fantasy points on Wednesday in New York on 24 points, six rebounds, and a steal. He didn’t block a shot in that game snapping a string of three straight games with multiple swats. Tonight, he’ll take on the Hornets who allow the tenth-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PF, so look for Turner to continue his success as he logs over 30 minutes on a nightly basis for the Pacers. ∗∗∗
Markieff Morris-Washington Wizards (5,200): The Markieff Morris experiment in Washington hasn’t gone great so far. Morris played 28 minutes against the Bulls in his last game but shot just 1-7 from the field and finished with five points. If it’s ever going to take off, tonight against the 76ers would seem to be the time to get started since Phily allows the second-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PF, and the Wizards will try to get him going. He’s high-risk, but could be high-reward as well. ∗
Brandon Bass-Los Angeles Lakers (3,900): If you have to go cheap at PF, Brandon Bass is actually getting some playing time for LA and has been relatively effective. He has at least 18 fantasy points in five of his last six games including slurring 11 points to go with six boards against Memphis earlier this week. While the Lakers will try to go young the rest of the way, Bass remains in the rotation enough to be a solid flier if you have to dig deep at the position tonight. ∗∗
