My DraftKings Lineup

The Jazz Stack

PG: Stephen Curry – Warriors ($10,600)
SG: Rodney Hood – Jazz ($5,300)
SF: Paul George – Pacers ($8,100)
PF: Derrick Favors – Jazz ($6,600)
C: Jeff Withey – Jazz ($3,000)
G: Kobe Bryant – Lakers ($5,000)
F: Gordon Hayward – Jazz ($7,300)
UTIL: Patty Mills – Spurs ($3,800)

In case you haven’t picked up on this theme throughout, I like Kobe Bryant to have a big night for the Lakers in his final game of his career—but I don’t like the Lakers at all in this matchup against a Jazz team that needs a win to stay alive. Subsequently, this lineup against a terrible LA defense should succeed in a major way.

Alternate Lineup

PG: Kemba Walker – Hornets ($8,400)
SG: Klay Thompson – Warriors ($6,400)
SF: Paul George – Pacers ($8,100)
PF: Gorgui Dieng – Timberwolves ($5,500)
C: Nikola Jokic – Nuggets ($5,300)
G: Kobe Bryant – Lakers ($5,000)
F: Michael Beasley – Rockets ($4,500)
UTIL: Tim Frazier – Pelicans ($5,900)

This lineup is slightly more balanced than the Jazz stack would be and has less players who will be playing in an increased role on Wednesday night. Depending on the type of contest and how you want to play it, both of these lineups could help you have success with your DraftKings daily picks on Wednesday for the last day of the NBA season.
