Tonightās contests tip off at 7:00 with two games locking down the rosters as the Magic host the Pacers and the Cavs take on the Timberwolves. At 7:30, thereās a flurry of action with four Eastern Conference games getting started as Boston hosts Toronto, Miami welcomes Atlanta, the Knicks and Nets face off in Brooklyn, and the Pistons host the Pelicans. At 8:30, the Sixers look to build on their January success as they head to Dallas followed by another wave of three games at 9:00. In the three 9:00 tips, the Suns face the Clippers, the Grizzlies visit Denver, and the Bucks are in Utah followed by just one game at 9:30 as the Bulls visit Russell Westbrook and the Thunder. At 10:30, the night closes out with one final game in Oakland where Golden State welcomes in Charlotte. With all those games going on, itās important to remember thatĀ the Hornets, Nuggets, Pelicans, Knicks, Thunder, and Raptors all are on the second night of back-to-back games and the Pelicans and Raptors even played overtime. Tomorrow, the Hawks, Warriors, Clippers, and 76ers turn around and play again but theyāre a little less of a concern since at least they had a day off yesterday.
With so many options tonight, there are many ways to build your DFS fantasy basketball team. Iāve tried to select just the very best matchups forĀ todayāsĀ FanDuel daily picks which start on the next slide. Each day in order to offer a variety of price points at eachĀ position, Ā you can findĀ find two slides for each position. The first slide is forĀ high-salaryĀ options, and the second featuresĀ high-value options. Each pickĀ is rankedĀ on a scale of 1-5 stars to indicate the confidence in the pick. The final slide of this post has more detail on what each level means, but inĀ short, more stars means more confidence on a points-per-dollar basis.
Just one other quick reminder, every day theĀ goal of this post is to provide information so that you can make your own decisions. I include my personal lineup on the final slide, but I do not intend for you toĀ copy-and-paste my lineup. Instead, I think you should customize your own lineup for yourself. Normally, my lineups are designedĀ for the more predictable,Ā lower-risk cash games instead of than the highlyĀ volatile,Ā high-risk GPP contests.
If you find this infoĀ helpful, drop a bookmark on theĀ fantasy basketball hubĀ to find this kind of post aboutĀ FanDuel every day along withĀ a similar oneĀ for DraftKings. In this post, all references to fantasy points and salary refer to FanDuel scoring and salaries, but if you want to give DraftKings a try, head over to the hub and find that post for today.
