My FanDuel daily picks can set a solid foundation as you build a your winning DFS fantasy basketball roster on this Tuesday, March 15.

The NBA is back in action tonight with six games on the schedule in an early-heavy Tuesday night schedule.  While some of the more intriguing matchups are out West including the Clippers and Spurs, there are some solid early games to jump into as we start with a lot of action before narrowing the focus down to just one late game.  To see the players from all 12 teams in action tonight that I think are set up to help you get a DFS fantasy basketball win, check out my FanDuel daily picks on the following slides

The action starts tonight at 7:00 with a pair of games in the East.  At 7:00, your roster will be locked in for the night, so be sure to double-check on any injury or availability issues before the 7:00 roster lock.  At 7:00, the Pacers host the Celtics in their fourth meeting of the season while the Magic welcome in the Nuggets who are completing their Florida back-to-back after a high-scoring loss in Miami last night. At 7:30, the Nets host the 76ers who played just last Saturday in Philadelphia where the Sixers picked up their first win in a long time getting a 95-89 victory. At 8:00, the Bucks host the Raptors as the Greek (Freak) Revolution continues. The Clippers visit San Antonio at 8:30 where they’ll face the Spurs who are an amazing 32-0 at home this season. As those games wrap up, the final game of the night will get underway out West as the Lakers take on DeMarcus Cousins and the Kings at STAPLES Center.

With those dozen teams in action, there are lots of stars and sleepers to consider as you build your DFS fantasy basketball roster. To see the players I think are ready to help you get a win 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. In order to help you find the position and price-point that you need, you’ll find two slides per position in this post–one with high-salary options and one with high-value options. Each slide contains at least two options 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.

In this post, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to FanDuel pricing and scoring.  If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for DraftKings, check the box above for related posts or find the latest on our fantasy basketball hub.

If you have any questions about my picks for today or any of our FanSided fantasy coverage, you can leave them at the bottom of the page in the comments section.  For an even quicker response, you can find me throughout the day on Twitter @FansidedFantasy. At this point in the season, its absolutely vital that you check your players’ availability before the lineups lock. I’ll keep you up to date on our Twitter feed on players who are in, out, or questionable for tonight so that you can avoid taking the killer-zero that will devastate your team.

If you find my picks and analysis helpful and would like to check out my DFS fantasy basketball posts each morning, the easiest way to find the FanDuel daily picks is to drop a bookmark on our fantasy basketball hub or follow on Twitter where I’ll tweet out the links each day when my picks go live.

It’s time to get rolling with my FanDuel daily picks for tonight’s six games starting with some high-priced PG.
