DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-May 1
High Salary SF
Paul George-Indiana Pacers (10,100): George has carried the Pacers all series and even managed to finish with 50.75 fantasy points in Game 6 even though he shot just 5-14 from the field. He had good fantasy production by adding 11 boards and six assists to his 21 points. In the last game in Toronto, Game 5, PG13 had 68 fantasy points on 39 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists. George went to the bench when the Raptors made their miraculous comeback, but don’t expect him to be out of the game very often in Game 7 as the Pacers go “all in” to win. He has at least 50 fantasy points in three of his last four games, and I think he’ll post another big game tonight north of the border. ∗∗∗∗
Luol Deng-Miami Heat (6,500): Deng has at least 15 points in each of the six games against the Hornets and has averaged 19.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in the series so far. In each of the six games, he has at least 25 fantasy points and posted 34.0 fantasy points in Game 6 on Friday. Deng is a safe option at this price point since he has been such a consistent option for Miami so far this series.∗∗∗
