DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – May 11 – 12
High Salary and Value SF
Kawhi Leonard, SA at HOU ($10,700): Leonard exploded for 55.8 fantasy points in Game 5 but suffered an ankle injury late and had to sit out overtime. He is a game-time decision to play on Thursday and will be somewhat of a question mark even if he does start. ***
Otto Porter, WAS vs BOS ($6600): Porter had his worst game of the series in Game 5, managing only 23.5 fantasy points, but he is still well into the mid-30s of fantasy points for the series as a whole. Thus, he makes a good candidate to bounce back at home on Friday. ****
Jae Crowder, BOS vs WAS ($6000): Crowder scored 31.5 fantasy points in Game 5 and has been rock-steady in his production this series. He has scored between 28 and 38 fantasy points in all five games and has a clear expected value in the low-30s of fantasy points on Friday. ****
Trevor Ariza, HOU at SA ($5200): Ariza scored 26 fantasy points in Game 5 on the road, and is averaging 28.9 fantasy points through five games of the series. This essentially matches the 29.3 fantasy points he has averaged in nine total games against the Spurs this season, setting a clear expected value for Thursday. ****
Punt: Jonathon Simmons, SA at HOU ($3800)
