DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 15
High Salary SF
Giannis Antetokounmpo-Milwaukee Bucks (9,200): “The Alphabet” has been tearing it up lately with four triple-doubles in his last 11 games. He has been single-handedly carrying fantasy teams to victory with over 60 fantasy points in four of his last eight games including a massive 77.75 fantasy points on Sunday against Brooklyn when he had 28 points, 14 assists, and 11 rebounds. He has been solid even when he’s not going off with at least 40 fantasy points in seven of his last eight. Antetokounmpo is emerging as a must-play option since he’s actually under priced at less than 10K. He’s facing the Raptors tonight who still don’t have DeMarre Carroll to defend opposing wings which should lead to very winnable matchups for Antetokounmpo at home as the Bucks look to knock off the Raptors. ∗∗∗∗
Kawhi Leonard-San Antonio Spurs (8,500): While he hasn’t quite been Giannis, “the Klaw” has been on a nice run of his own with at least 43 fantasy points in seven of his last nine games. He has scored 23 points or more in eight of his last nine and is adding his typical multi-category numbers. He should get a ton of time tonight at home against the Clippers, and there’s no reason to see him without another monster performance. He doesn’t have 70-fantasy-point upside like Antetokounmpo but is a very solid play nonetheless. ∗∗∗
Rudy Gay-Sacramento Kings (6,100): Gay is a gamble tonight against the Lakers, but LA has allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing SF which could help him be a under-owned producer tonight if he steps up. He has been held under 22 fantasy points in back-to-back games against the Magic and Jazz after posting 37.5 fantasy points against the Cavs last Wednesday. He’ll look to return to that form and bounce back from his two down games tonight in LA. ∗
