DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-November 30
High Salary SF
Jimmy Butler-Chicago Bulls (9,000): Butler was a little disappointing against the 76ers last Friday playing just 31 minutes and producing 38 fantasy points. Even though that’s a solid number, he had put up 59.25 fantasy points (40-7-6) and 57 fantasy points (35-8-5) in his previous two games. Butler actually has at least 57 fantasy points in four of his last nine games and should be well-rested as the Bulls host the Lakers tonight. He faced LA last Sunday when he rocked them for that 59.25-fantasy-point stat line. If tonight’s game stays close, look for Butler to post another monster stat line although it is worth remembering that his 40 points came with higher usage due to D-Wade resting. Still, he’s a nice value at 9K from among the second-teir of elite producers as he faces LA who is giving up the third-most fantasy points per contest to opposing SF. ∗∗∗∗
Wilson Chandler-Denver Nuggets (7,000): Chandler has stepped up in a big way for the Nuggets the last few games while Gary Harris, Danilo Gallinari, and Will Barton have been out. Gallo and Barton are both questionable for tonight which could cut into his value, but he has been playing so well that it will be hard to get him off the court. Chandler has over 35 fantasy points in three of his last four games including a monster 55.25-fantasy-point night against the Thunder when he had 32-11-4. If Gallo and Barton are back, his role will be uncertain, but he should continue to be involved no matter what since he has been giving the Nuggets a ton of energy and spark even when coming off the bench. No Gallinari and Barton-∗∗∗ With Gallinari and Barton-∗
Rudy Gay-Sacramento Kings (6,900): Gay gets an even better matchup than Butler as he faces the 76ers who have allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing SF. Gay had a big game in Brooklyn on the Kings’ current road trip with 22-8-8 helping him to 48.5 fantasy points, but he had a much quieter game against the Wizards where he had just 30.75 fantasy points on 18-5-2. He can be a little inconsistent with his non-scoring numbers, but the matchup is a great one to attack tonight. ∗∗∗∗
