DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-January 29
High Salary SG
James Harden-Houston Rockets (12,800): On Friday, Harden went off in Philadelphia on the hapless Sixers exploding for a massive triple-double of 51-13-13 for 97.75 fantasy points. He has at least 55 fantasy points in four straight games and has at least 25 points and ten assists in each of those matchups. He’ll look to keep rolling tonight against the Pacers in what should be a game stuffed with points. He has a limitless ceiling, but he does cost a lot, so you’ll have to be smart elsewhere if you are feeling bullish on “the Beard.” ∗∗∗
Dwyane Wade-Chicago Bulls (7,000): On Friday, Wade and Jimmy Butler came off the bench as punishment and both has sub-par games. Wade shot just 6-17 against this former team and totaled 15-6-3 for 29 fantasy points. That performance snapped a string of three straight with over 45 fantasy points. Tonight, he’ll be back in the lineup as the Bulls host the 76ers who just gave up that huge game to James Harden. Wade should be ready to step back up and produce if he can get his shot in rhythm unlike his game against the Heat. ∗∗
Bradley Beal-Washington Wizards (6,600): Beal only had to play 26 minutes on Friday as the Wizards rolled over the Hawks. He finished with 15-1-4 and 25.25 fantasy points which snapped a streak of three straight with over 32 fantasy points. He had 31-2-5 for 43.5 fantasy points on Tuesday against Boston while hitting 12-18 from the field. He’ll look to get back to that efficiency tonight against the Pelicans who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing SG in their last 10 games.∗∗∗
