DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 7

High Value SF

Wesley Matthews – Dallas Mavericks ($5,800) :  We have Matthews in our high value SG section, and he’s also a solid play at SF depending on your other lineup selections. He put up a huge 27/6/3 game against Portland last week that was good for 39.5 FP. Matthews’ playing time will also remain unaffected should Deron Williams return tonight, but the same can’t be said about Curry. Would Carlisle run some with Ferrell and Williams in the backcourt and Wes at the 3? It’s possible. Matthews also has a 56.5% three-point tendency, and that bodes well against the Blazers, who are awful at defending against long-range shooters.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist – Charlotte Hornets ($5,100) :  MKG can be a maddening player to roster, and his limitations are well known. His usage rate is just under 15% and even Cody Zeller’s is higher. He’s never been a reliable scorer and usually doesn’t get large shot totals. But one thing MKG has done is continuously take advantage of his matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. He’s had some of his biggest games of the year against them, averaging a double-double and shooting almost 60% over three games. He had 17 and 14 in their last matchup, tallying 40.5 FP in the process. He can disappear at times but he seems to make the most of his PT against the hapless Nets.

Joe Harris – Brooklyn Nets ($3,000) :  Harris certainly is a risky play due to his volatility, but with Caris Levert out Harris could see 20 or more minutes again tonight, just as he has the last two games. He doesn’t need to do all that much to hit value at the minimum salary, but he can put up some severe duds like his last game, where he made just one shot and scored only 8 FP. But just the game before he posted 24 FP. If you’re looking to make a studs and duds lineup and need a minimum salary player for value, Harris is an option that might help you roster one more big name. But again, it is a risk.
