FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-May 26 & 27
High Value SG
J.R. Smith-Cleveland Cavaliers (4,6=500): Smith had 21.2 fantasy points in Game 5 on seven points, six rebounds, and four steals. He had a huge game in Toronto in Game 3 with 22 points and five rebounds for 30 fantasy points, but he came back to earth in Game 4 with just nine points and 11.9 fantasy points in his 32 minutes. He has nice upside at this price point since he gets so much playing time with the Cavs’ starters and takes a ton of shots. If he can get it going early, he can produce piles of fantasy points.∗∗∗
Andre Roberson-Oklahoma City Thunder (3,900): Roberson came up huge in the Thunder’s two home games played 30 and 40 minutes finishing with 22.7 and 49.9 fantasy points. His massive line in Game 4 was the result of 17 points, 12 rebounds, five steals, three assists, and a pair of blocks. He probably won’t get than many fantasy points in Game 5, but he has over 18 fantasy points in three of the four games in the series which is enough to make him a value to target. He has huge upside but is a bit boom-or-bust.∗∗∗
Dion Waiters-Oklahoma City Thunder (3,900): Waiters was solid in the two home games in OKC even though he didn’t go crazy like Roberson. Waiters is a little more consistent with at least 15 fantasy points in each of the four games this series but his high-water mark is only 20.1 fantasy points. ∗∗
