FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 19
High Salary C
DeAndre Jordan-Los Angeles Clippers (8,400): The Grizzlies are holding their front court together with scotch tape and Ryan Hollins these days, so DeAndre should be able to bang them down low for however long the game is close. Jordan has eight double-doubles in his last nine games including a few monster nights. He has over 48 fantasy points in four of his last eight games including on Wednesday when he had 23 points and 16 rebounds against Houston for 48.7 fantasy points. He should be ready to roll against the Grizz tonight, so barring a blowout expect 35+ fantasy points fairly easily.∗∗∗
Andre Drummond-Detroit Pistons (7,900): Drummond hasn’t been quite as consistent as DeAndre, but he has a similarly high ceiling as he takes on the Nets tonight. Drummond followed his 18 points and 18 boards against Atlanta with 14 points and 11 rebounds against the Kings last night. He has over 36 fantasy points in three of his last four games and in six of his last eight. Tonight, Drummond should be able to take advantage of the Nets who struggle against opposing centers. Drummond has averaged 21.3 points and 15.7 rebounds against Brooklyn in their three meetings this season, so look for him to take it to Brook Lopez and the Nets once again tonight. ∗∗∗∗
Rudy Gobert-Utah Jazz (6,200): The Stifle Tower has been inconsistent lately, but he had a big game against the Suns on Thursday with 16 rebounds and three blocks to go with nine points on his way to 32.3 fantasy points. Tonight, I like Gobert mainly due to his matchup against the Bulls who don’t have Pau Gasol and will be under-sized up front. He’s a solid mid-range option tonight even though he hasn’t gone off for a double-double in any of his last seven games. ∗∗
