12 NBA teams are taking the floor this Tuesday highlighted by a solid ESPN double-hater anchoring a nice schedule of six games. The 12-team pool of fantasy basketball options gives us some nice stars and sleepers to include in DFS fantasy basketball lineups for tonight, and you can find my favorites on the following slides in my FanDuel daily picks.

As usual, the FanDuel competition gets started at 7:00 PM ET which is when rosters will lock for the evening as the first game gets started. The 7:00 tip tonight is in Cleveland where the Cavs host Memphis. At 7:30, the second game tips off in Atlanta where the Magic take on the Hawks. At 8:00, two more games join the action as the Warriors visit the Pelicans and Anthony Davis while ESPN’s double-header starts with the Timberwolves visiting the Bulls. At 9:00, the Suns host the Knicks as they continue their West Coast trip, and at 10:30 the night wraps up with the Blazers hosting the Thunder. Portland is the only team playing tonight that played last night, so be careful with Blazers on their second night of their back-to-back. The Grizz, Cavs, Thunder, and Magic are on the front end of their back-to-back set, so they’ll be back in action tomorrow as part of Wednesday’s ten-game schedule.

The 12 teams taking the floor tonight proved a good group of options for DFS fantasy basketball tonight. I’ve collected my favorite options for you to check out on the next few slides in today’s FanDuel daily picks. My goal each day is to give you the information you need to build your own customized lineup to get you a win however you participate in DFS contests. In order to help you find what you need, I’ve separated my picks by position and price. You’ll find two slides per position–the first slide will feature the best high-salary options followed by some high-value options which cost less but still offer solid returns. Each slide contains at least two options with extras thrown in where possible.

I rank my picks for each contest using stars after each explanation to show the relative 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 personal 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.

Just a reminder that each day in my FanDuel daily picks, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to FanDuel pricing and scoring.
