FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 25
High Value PG
Elfrid Payton-Orlando Magic (5,400): Payton has come off the bench for the Magic in his first three games back from his elbow injury, but he was able to log 34 minutes against the Pistons and finish with a very impressive triple-double of 20 points, ten rebounds, and ten assists on his way to 48 fantasy points. Tonight, he’s in a tough matchup against the Heat who limit opposing PG very well, so even if he moves back into the lineup there’s definitely some risk. He does have huge potential, though, and looks to be fully recovered from his injury. If starting-∗∗∗ Off the bench-∗∗
Jerryd Bayless-Milwaukee Bucks (4,300): While he hasn’t been consistent lately, Bayless is starting at the point for the Bucks and getting big minutes. He had 15 points and five boards against the Cavs on Wednesday for 22.5 fantasy points in his 33 minutes. Bayless can produce over 30 fantasy points, but he’s a big risk to take on a night with so many other options on the board.∗
Shaun Livingston-Golden State Warriors (3,900): Even if Curry starts and plays his normal minutes, Livingston is worth a look since he has at least 15 fantasy points in five of his last seven games including each of his last four. He played 26 minutes against the Clippers and finished with 21.5 fantasy points on 11 points, five rebounds, and three assists. If he continues to get the playing time he has been receiving recently, he’s a great buy at under 4K. ∗∗∗
