There are nine games on the NBA calendar for tonight giving us a solid pool of options for DFS fantasy basketball.  It’s already been a wild and high-scoring DFS week as some stars have rested, some sleepers have stepped up, and hopefully you’ve been able to get some solid lineups together.  To see who I think deserves consideration for your  roster tonight, check out my FanDuel daily picks on the following slides.

We  get an extra 30 minutes to set our final rosters tonight since the first game doesn’t tip off until 7:30 PM ET. That 7:30 tip-off features the Raptors hosting the Hawks in Toronto in a battle of Eastern Conference playoff teams. At 8:00, the Western Conference jumps into the action as the Grizz host the Nuggets, the Suns visit Milwaukee, and the Clippers tangle with the T-Wolves.  At 8:30, the Spurs look to improve to 38-0 at home as they host the Pelicans while elsewhere in Texas the Knicks visit the Mavericks.  At 9:00, the Warriors continue their pursuit of the best regular season ever as they travel to Utah for a tricky game against the Jazz who have the altitude and the fact that Golden State is playing the second night of a back-to-back on their side.  In the final two games from out West, the Kings welcome in the Wizards at 10:00, and the dysfunctional Lakers take on the Heat at 10:30 in the final game of the NBATV double-header.

The wild week of “Who’s in?” and “Who’s out?” is sure to continue, but there are definitely some players who I think are set up for success. 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.

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. Remember, FanDuel still doesn’t allow for late-swapping so whoever is on your roster at 7:30 is the team you’ll have for the night.

If you find my picks and analysis helpful and would like to check out my DFS fantasy basketball posts each morning, the easiest way to find the FanDuel daily picks is to drop a bookmark on our fantasy basketball hub or follow on Twitter where I’ll tweet out the links each day when my picks go live.

It’s time to get rolling with my FanDuel daily picks for this wild Wednesday night of action starting with some high-priced PG.
