It’s a big Monday of DFS fantasy basketball, so build your team with the help of my FanDuel Daily picks from tonight’s ten games.

There are just two and a half weeks left in the NBA regular season, so get in the game tonight when the NBA has a full ten-game schedule. There are 100 starters to pick from plus some solid bench plays as well. To help you find the best plays among the many options on the board tonight, check out my FanDuel daily picks on the following slides.

Even though there are ten games on tap, we get an extra 30 minutes to finalize our lineup since the first games don’t tip off until 7:30 PM ET.  At 7:30, there are two games scheduled to start as the Heat host the Nets and the Raptors welcome in the Thunder. Four more games get going at 8:00 with the Grizz taking on the Spurs, the Pelicans take on the Knicks, the Hawks face the Bulls, and the T-Wolves face the Suns.  The pair of games tipping at 9:00 will see the Jazz hosting the Lakers and the Nuggets taking on the Mavericks. In the two late games tonight, the Blazers welcome the Kings at 10:00, and the Celtics visit LA to take on the Clippers at 10:30.

At this point in the season, there are plenty of value plays to consider as teams take a look at younger talent while also dealing with injuries and rest for their more established starters.  Getting the right blend of stars and sleepers can sometimes be challenging, but to see the options that I think can deliver for you 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.

I’ll also update you on Twitter to the ever-changing availability issues throughout the day and let you know if I’m adjusting my lineups at all leading up to tip-off.
