DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup — April 19
High Value PG
Stephen Curry, GS vs POR ($8600): Curry scored 44.3 fantasy points with Kevin Durant in the line-up in Game 1, numbers very similar to what he’s put up since Durant returned. However, during the long stretch that Durant was out, Curry worked himself up to a consistent 50 fantasy ppg level producer. Thus, he has the opportunity to put a big number on the board on Wednesday if Durant does in fact sit with his calf injury. *****
Dennis Schroder, ATL at WAS ($7400): Schroder popped for 44.8 fantasy points in Game 1, but he’s been up-and-down of late with games in the 20s of fantasy points coming as often as games in the 40s. He has also had trouble with the Wizards this season, as his big Game 1 only brought his five-game average against them up to 27.6 fantasy points per game. He could be in for a regression to the mean night, but his elite Game 1 and relatively lower price does make him intriguing. **
Patrick Beverley, HOU vs OKC ($5800): Beverley came out ready to PLAY in Game 1, often outdueling Russell Westbrook directly on his way to 44.5 fantasy points. Beverley has an intense history with Westbrook and often plays him tough, but usually his efforts don’t result in so many fantasy points. His big game brought his four-game average against the Thunder this season up to 28.6 fantasy points. **
