FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 6
High Salary C
Hassan Whiteside-Miami Heat (8,600): The 76ers have been among the worst teams against opposing centers all season and right now, they’re back in the “lead” for the most fantasy points allowed to opposing C. Whiteside helped them get there with 19 points and 19 rebounds on Friday totaling 47.8 fantasy points in his 34 minutes. Whiteside is still coming off the bench, so it’s hard to own him at the beginning of games while waiting for Coach Spo to remember that Whiteside can help. Whitseide has at least 47 fantasy points in five of his eight games since the All Star break, and he should be able to get to that level again tonight since he typically excels at home in Miami and is in such a great matchup. ∗∗∗∗
Andre Drummond-Detroit Pistons (8,500): Another team that has struggled against opposing big men has been the Trail Blazers which sets up well for Drummond. Drummond had 21 points and 16 boards against the Knicks last night finishing with 40.2 fantasy points. He has at least 40 fantasy points in thee of his lsat four games and is starting to again be around 15-15 production most games. He should be able to take it to the Blazers who he lit up for 29 points and 27 rebounds when he faced them in Portland earlier this season. ∗∗∗∗∗
