DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 20
High Salary C
Nikola Vucevic – Orlando Magic ($7700): So much for that injury. Vuccy went nuts for 48.75 against Phoenix and tonight he gets the Sixers, who have allowed the most fantasy points to centers this season. Vuccy has averaged just about 46 FP per game in three previous meetings, so he is a very solid play tonight.
DeAndre Jordan – Los Angeles Clippers ($6900): Jordan destroyed the Knicks earlier in the season when he shot 12-of-14 from the field and finished with 28 points and 15 rebounds. Blowout potential looms large in this one, but the Knicks have been even worse than usual against centers lately, allowing over 63 fantasy points per game over their last five games. The price is definitely right, too.
Blake Griffin – Los Angeles Clippers ($8100): As I mentioned earlier, the Knicks are hot garbage, and Blake is due not only for a double-double but also for a big game. He’s missed a double-double in his last three games and you have to think he will certainly break that streak tonight against the lowly Knicks. It doesn’t hurt that he had 54.5 FP against them last time, and I like the idea of stacking Blake and CP3 tonight.
Rudy Gobert – Utah Jazz ($7200): Gobert has been fantastic recently and tonight gets to go up against the weak rebounding of the Indiana Pacers. With Derrick Favors still out, Gobert has the opportunity to put up a monster game on the glass, and could top 20 points too. I’m definitely going to have a lot fo shares of Gobert tonight.
