FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-January 27
High Salary PF
Kevin Love-Cleveland Cavaliers (7,900): Love gets a great matchup against the Nets tonight who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing PF this season. Love has posted three straight double-doubles since missing a game last week with a sore back. He had 13-11-3 for 27.7 fantasy points against the Spurs in his first game back and followed that up with 22-16-6 for 47.2 fantasy points against the Pelicans and 21-16-5 for 45.7 fantasy points against the Kings. With the Cavs working to limit LeBron and Kyrie’s minutes, Love could get even more work against Brooklyn and put together another double-double.∗∗∗∗
LaMarcus Aldridge-San Antonio Spurs (7,900): Aldridge gets a great matchup tonight against the Pelicans who have been getting beat up by opposing big men all season. He had 22-6-3 in his last game against New Orleans and comes into tonight’s matchup with over 41 fantasy points in three of his last five games including a game with 41.3 fantasy points against the Nets.∗∗∗
Markieff Morris-Washington Wizards (6,900): Morris has been on roll lately with 33+ fantasy points in five of his last six games. He’s coming off 19-11-4 against Boston on Tuesday when he had 40.2 fantasy points.Tonight against Atlanta he’ll have to deal with the tough defense of Paul Millsap, but he still brings upside at under 7K.∗∗
Ersan Ilyasova-Philadelphia 76ers (6,000): Ilyasova had another game with 30 fantasy points on Wednesday as he returned to Milwaukee with 17-9-2 for 30.8 fantasy points. He has at least 30 fantasy points in three of his last four games and has picked up his offensive production while Joel Embiid has been sidelined. If Embiid is out again tonight, Ilyasova will be a solid play, but his risk factor will rise if Embiid is back to soak up usage and shots. No Embiid-∗∗∗ With Embiid-∗∗
