DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-April 30

Even with only a single NBA game tonight, you can get your DFS fantasy basketball team together for the weekend with the help of my DraftKings daily picks.

This weekend in the NBA doesn’t have eight games like the last two weeks, but there are enough games to get a solid DFS fantasy basketball contest in by combining Saturday and Sunday into a four-game slate starting tonight. To see who I think you should look at adding to your team for tonight, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides.

More from DraftKings

The only game of this Saturday tips off at 8:30 PM ET as the Spurs and Thunder start their second round showdown and the competitions get underway. The rest of the games are part of a Sunday triple-header starting with the Heat and Hornets in Game 7 of their first round series which tips off on South Beach at 1:00 PM ET. At 3:30, the Warriors host the Blazers as they start their second round series in the middle matchup, and the final game of the night is another drama-packed Game 7 as the Raptors and Pacers close out what should be a good weekend of the NBA Playoffs.

To see who I think you should consider from those eight teams, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides. My goal each day is to give you the information you need to build your own lineup that can bring home a win for your team. 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 today’s game.

I rank my picks every day 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). 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 today’s competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but you’re welcome to check out my lineups and use them as a place to get started.

In my DraftKings daily picks, 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 the fantasy basketball hub.
