DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-April 13
High Value PF
Gorgui Dieng ($5,500)
Though the Timberwolves don’t have anything to really play for at this point in the season, Gorgui Dieng has been one of the underrated surprises for Minnesota and in the NBA this season. In their season finale against an injury-ravaged Pelicans team, I like for Dieng to fill up the box score and have a huge night.
Myles Turner ($4,700)
Myles Turner has been a bit of a frustrating player in a fantasy sense at the end of his rookie season, largely due to his inconsistency in regards to his production. However, he’s still a highly talented player and, if you’re looking to take a big risk to really put your DraftKings daily picks over the edge, Turner is the high-upside play that could really pay off if he hits.
David West ($4,100)
As the San Antonio Spurs rest the majority of their starters on Wednesday night in the regular season finale, that’s going to leave David West playing a huge role in the frontcourt—especially with Boris Diaw likely still being out of the lineup as well. Though West isn’t the type of player that’s going to wow anyone, but he’s going to be in a role where he has a ton of value on DraftKings considering his price and what he could potentially put up in the box score.
UPDATE
David West will rest on Wednesday for the Spurs, so obviously don’t have him in your lineup.
