After last night’s 12-game hoops-fest, the NBA has another solid slate of five games on tap for tonight including several rematch games including the second half of a back-to-back home-and-home featuring the Bulls and Knicks. To see the players that I like for DFS fantasy basketball from that matchup and the other four matchups on the board, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides.

In the 7:00 PM ET tip that gets the action started tonight, the Pacers host the injury-riddled Pelicans. At 7:30, LeBron and the Cavs finish their back-to-back in Brooklyn against the Nets while the Bulls are also in NYC taking on the Knicks. At 8:00, the Thunder host the Jazz in what should be a fun game to watch, and the night closes out with the Clippers trying to bounce back from their loss to Golden State last night as they welcome in Damian Lillard and the Blazers.

There are definitely some matchups to attack and other to avoid on tonight’s slate which features several rematches of recent games. To see the options that I think can deliver for you tonight, check out my DraftKings 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.
