FanDuel NBA Picks For March 31

We here at Fantasy CPR will work very hard and do everything that we can to bring you articles to prepare you and help you be successful with your bids and games at FanDuel and DraftKings just as we have with MLB and NBA. I always recommend that you do plenty of homework on your own as well as reading our articles. You will also want to make sure that you have access to your FanDuel lineup prior to kickoff in case a player is a last-minute inactive players.

Here are my FanDuel NBA picks for March 31:

Next: Point Guard Plays

Point Guards:

PG – Russell Westbrook – Westbrook is dropping all kinds of triple-doubles lately and has really been playing as well as anyone in the NBA. I like having him in here unless of course on the outside chance that the Thunder give him the night off as they rested Durant and Ibaka last night. If they do rest him I will likely roll with Damian Lillard here.

PG – D.J. Augustin – Augustin is playing pretty well and has a pretty good matchup with the Pelicans. I like him quite a bit in the game and think that the Pelicans guards could be pretty good in FanDuel leagues as well.

Next: Shooting Guard Plays

Shooting Guards:

SG – James Harden – Harden is absolutely killing it lately. He is averaging around 40 plus minutes per game and is scoring fantasy points by the bucket load. He is pricey, but he is well worth it and should be a great play tonight. The Bulls defense and effort in general have left a lot to be desired this season and I think Harden could be in for a great night.

SG – Will Barton – Barton has had a pretty good season with the Nuggets thus far and does not seem to be slowing down any. In his past two games he has been over 34 fantasy points and a he gets a nice matchup with the Pelicans.

Next: Small Forward Plays

Small Forwards:

SF – Jordan Hamilton – Hamilton got the start last night and went out and delivered a nice statistical night. He finished up with 14 points, five rebounds and four assists. If the minutes are there again tonight for him he will be a great value play. He is a little bit of a risky play so stay tuned to the Nuggets coaches for any updates on their rotation.

SF – Kevin Durant – I am running with a bunch of value plays and studs tonight. I think it will pay off and I like running Durant after a night of rest. He should come out and be quite rejuvenated and ready to roll.

Next: Power Forward and Center Plays

Power Forwards:

PF – Andrew Nicholson – I was not super crazy about any of the power forwards available tonight with this six game schedule. I decided to roll with some value plays and I think they should be able to keep up with what we need them to do. Nicholson has always been pretty solid when given minutes and he should be fine for tonight.

PF – Ed Davis – Davis has not been the best in the league lately, but he has been efficient and has delivered on average right around 25-28 fantasy points over his last several games. Give Davis a roll tonight and let him fill your stat sheets.

Center:

C – Ian Mahinmi – Mahinmi has been pretty good voer his last two games with over 30 fantasy points in each game. He is getting more than enough minutes and registers in as a nice value play for this slate of games. Roll Mahinmi out and enjoy this nice mixture of studs and scrubs.
