FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – October 30, 2017

There are nine NBA games on Monday, a full schedule for the start of a week. The action starts at 7:30 PM ET with three games, the Timberwolves at the Heat, the Nuggets at the Knicks and the Spurs at the Celtics. Three more games tip thirty minutes later, with the 76ers at the Rockets, the Magic at the Pelicans and the Hornets and the Grizzlies. The Mavericks are at the Jazz at 9:00 PM ET, followed an hour later by the Raptors at the Trail Blazers. The final game of the night is a rivalry game, with the Warriors at the Clippers.

My favorite plays of the day can be found on the following slides in FanSided’s FanDuel daily picks. Each day in order to offer a variety of price points at each position, you can find two slides for each position–one for high-salary options and one for high-value options. Each pick is ranked on a scale of 1-5 stars to indicate the confidence in the pick. The final slide of this post has more detail on what each level means, but in short, more stars means more confidence in the selection on a points-per-dollar basis.

Important note, every day the goal of this post is not to give you a copy-and-paste lineup. Instead, each selection is given while highlighting the factors you need to consider when building a customized lineup for yourself. If you want to see an example lineup, you can find it on the final slide of the post, but I suggest you adjust your lineup to fit your personal taste.
