DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 14
High Salary PF
Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (8,300): Green has picked up his scoring in his last three contests with 17, 17, and 19 points which has picked his fantasy value back up to a level where his 8K+ salary makes sense. Green has at least 38 fantasy points in each of his last three games highlighted by his big double-double against Portland on Friday when he had 48.25 fantasy points. Tonight against the Pelicans, Green should be able to put together another nicely-balance line, and I think he has the potential to go off given his recent up-tick in scoring. ∗∗∗∗
Derrick Favors-Utah Jazz (7,100): Favors has had a few monster games in his last five tearing apart both the Pelicans and the Kings down low for over 60 fantasy points. His other three games in his last five were all under 40 fantasy points with 36, 25, and 30.25 fantasy points in his three matchups with the Hawks, Warriors, and Wizards. The Jazz play an important game against the Cavs, and he’ll have a good matchup against Kevin Love. He has sky-high potential, but his delivery is somewhat inconsistent. ∗∗
JaMychal Green-Memphis Grizzlies (6,200): Green had a little bit of a burnout after his red-hot week last week playing just 24 minutes on Saturday against the Hawks and posting 12.5 fantasy points on four points and eight rebounds. He had three double-doubles in his three previous games, though, and played over 37 minutes in each of those contests with 39+ fantasy points. Since Saturday’s game was the second of back-to-back contests, I expect him to bounce back in a bit away tonight especially since he’s playing the Rockets who have allowed the most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PF. ∗∗∗∗
