Tonight should be a fun night in the NBA with six games scheduled including a very nice and entertaining TNT double-header.  The marquee marquee matchup is the late game as the Wizards and the Warriors meet in Oakland and Golden State continues their pursuit of history.  The ten teams in the five earlier games help round out a solid pool of options for my DraftKings daily picks.

The action gets underway tonight at 7:00 PM ET with three early games featuring six Eastern Conference teams. The Bulls visit the Pacers, the Nets are in Orland, and the Hornets travel to Phily to face the woeful Sixers. At 7:30, the Thunder finish their back-to-back in Detroit as they face the Pistons before the TNT double-header tips off at 8:00.  In the first TNT game of the night, the LeBron-less Cavaliers face James Harden and the Rockets in an important matchup for Houston as they battle for the playoffs.  That game leads up to the 10:30 showdown as John Wall and the Wizards take on Stephen Curry and the Warriors who will be trying to improve to 67-8 on the season and 36-0 at home.

We’ve officially reached silly season in DFS fantasy basketball which means 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.  Rotations change on a regular basis and night-to-night players roles can swing dramatically. As a result, 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 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.

In this post, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to DraftKings pricing and scoring.  If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for FanDuel, 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. 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. DraftKings’ allowing for late-swapping up to the tipoff for every game is a vital tool to take advantage of so stay tuned ask the way through the evening for updates
