DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 29
High Value PF
Ersan Ilyasova – Atlanta Hawks ($6000): As long as Paul Millsap remains out Ilyasova will continue to see a lot of floor time. He’s been a 30-30 guy of late — 30 or more minutes plus 30 or more fantasy points. That should continue tonight against the Sixers and the Hawks need wins badly to keep their playoff spot.
Kelly Olynyk – Boston Celtics ($4200): Olynyk is a hard player to figure out because Brad Stevens alters his minutes so frequently. But I like the matchup tonight because Milwaukee is a bit soft against bigs and they played last night. Olynyk shoots it much better at home and quite frankly I don’t trust Amir Johnson to have a third-straight excellent game, so Olynyk is in play tonight.
Brendan Wright – Memphis Grizzlies ($3100): I like Wright tonight with Marc Gasol out, but only if JaMychal Green sits. He is a GPP play only, but he did get 21 minutes last game with Gasol out and that total should jump if Green sits tonight. His ceiling isn’t going to be high but you are just looking for 5-6x value so you can roster another high-priced stud.
Justin Anderson – Philadelphia 76ers ($3100): Anderson will get more run with Sergio Rodriguez out, but I would still like to see both Okafor and Gerald Henderson out to play him. He got 22 minutes and 14 shots in his last game, and his ceiling can top 30 FP when given 20 or more minutes. This is also a GPP-only play, and it’s a risky one. But it could be a good payoff.
