Check out my FanDuel daily picks for the four games tonight in the NBA which set up a fun night for DFS fantasy basketball players

After a busy but relatively low-scoring night of fantasy basketball last night, there are four games on tap in the NBA tonight highlighted by Warriors vs Thunder Round 3. There are some nice games on the undercard as well though giving us four games to examine as we build our DFS fantasy basketball team. My favorite options can be found on the following slides in my FanDuel daily picks.

The first game of the night starts at 7:30 when the Heat host the struggling Suns. At 8:00, the TNT double-header gets underway as the Spurs and Pelicans both come off a game last night and meet up in the Big Easy. At 8:30, the Kings are in Dallas for their their third meeting of the season. The final game of the night is the clash of the titans as the Thunder try to shake off last night’s brutal loss as they take on the Warriors who handed them another painful loss in epic fashion last Saturday.
With just eight teams in play tonight, there aren’t a ton of options to choose from, but there are definitely still some good plays to consider. To see the players I think are the best options for tonight, check out my FanDuel daily picks on the following slides. My goal is to give you the information you need to build your own lineup that can bring home a win for your team tonight. To help you realize that goal, you’ll find two slides per position in this post–one for high-salary options and one for high-value options. Each slide contains at least two selections with extras thrown in where possible. I base each pick on the current form of each player and the positional matchups each player will face in tonight’s game.
At the beginning of 2016, I started to rank my picks using stars after each selection to show the strength of the pick. For a full explanation of the rating system, check out the last slide of this post, but in short, more stars means more confidence (on a point-per-dollar basis). On the final slide of the post, you can see my recent results at each level of confidence. Also on the final slide of the post, you can see how I’m putting together the best of my picks into my lineup for tonight’s competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but you’re welcome to see my lineups and use them as a place to get started.
