ESPN’s double-header doesn’t start until 8:00, but rosters on FanDuel will lock at 7:00 PM ET when the Raptors head to Philadelphia to face the 76ers, the Blazers take on the Hornets in Charlotte, and the Grizzlies are in DC to face the Wizards. At 7:30, the Celtics and Knicks join the action from TD Garden before the next trio of games get started at 8:00 including ESPN’s Bucks @ Rockets as well as the Magic @ Pelicans and the Hawks @ Pistons. The last two games of the night tip off at 10:30 highlighted by the Warriors and Kevin Durant hosting his former team from Oklahoma City on ESPN while at the same time the Kings take on the Pacers. It’s important to remember as you build your lineup that the Raptors and Rockets are playing on the second night of back-to-back games while the Knicks and Wizards both play tonight and then take on each other tomorrow.
There are a lot of good stars and sleepers to take a look at tonight from the 18 teams taking the floor. To see who I think you should consider based on current form and tonight’s matchup, scroll through today’s FanDuel daily picks on the following slides. 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 my relative confidence in 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. This post isn’t a place to find a copy-and-paste lineup since there are plenty of places that will sell you access to their picks. In this free daily post, I suggest you build your own customized team with the players that you like the most. As always, you’re welcome to check out my lineup and use it as a place to get started.
Just one more quick reminder that each day in my FanDuel daily picks, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to FanDuel pricing and scoring. If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for DraftKings, you can always find the latest on the fantasy basketball hub. If you have any questions or are looking for any updates as the games get closer, follow @FanSidedFantasy on Twitter. I’ll also use that account to tweet out links when we add new stories to the fantasy basketball hub.
After those quick intro comments, let’s get into tonight’s FanDuel daily picks since there are nine games to break down.
