With just one NBA game tonight, itās time for a two-day fantasy basketball competition, so build your roster with the help of my FanDuel daily picks for Wednesday and Thursday.
The NBA Playoffs are going to be stretched out in the coming days making series last a long time and leaving the midweek fantasy basketball contests a little thin on options. Since multiple games are needed to make DFS work both practically and legally, get ready for some multiple-day contests like the one tipping off tonight. Ā Iāll do my best to keep up with all the different options for contests in my FanDuel daily picks which will keep running every morning until there are no more competitions to cover.

The one set of competitions that starts tonight on FanDuel is a Wednesday-Thursday slate featuring the two Game 2ās from the Eastern Conference. Ā Tonight, we get Game 2 of the Cavs and Hawks in Cleveland, and tomorrow the Raptors and Heat will play the second game of their series.Ā So far in Round 2, weāve had some very watchable basketball games, and hopefully that continues over the next two nights.
To see who I think you should make sure to have in your lineupĀ from theĀ two games on the next two nights, check out my FanDuel 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,Ā youāll find two slides per position in this postāone withĀ high-salary options and one withĀ high-value options. Each slide contains at least two optionsĀ with extras thrown in where possible. Ā I base each pickĀ on the currentĀ form of each player and the positional matchups each player will face in todayāsĀ game.
I rank my picks every morningĀ 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 Iām putting together the best of my picks into my lineup for todayāsĀ competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but youāre welcome to check outĀ my lineups and use them as a place to get started.
