FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – December 9, 2017
High Salary PG
Chris Paul, HOU at POR ($8,700): Paul turned in his best game as a Rocket on Thursday, dropping 58.3 fantasy points against the Jazz. You never have to worry about getting assists from Paul. He’s found his shot recently, but he’s not a volume scorer. He’s had 6+ rebounds in three of his last four. He’s also good for a handful of steals each game, while rarely turning the ball over. The Blazers are 12th against the position in their last 15 games, but it’s tough to doubt either Rockets star right now. ****
Dennis Schroder, ATL vs ORL ($8,300): This one is all about the matchup as the Magic rank last against the position in their last 15 games. Not only that, but Schoder had 46.5 fantasy points against the Magic on Wednesday. He’s a solid scorer, but really needs to rebound and pass in order to hit value. He’s been at value 68 percent of the time this season. ****
Kris Dunn, CHI vs NY ($7,100): Dunn has seen his salary rise over the last week thanks to a handful of strong performances. He just had 53.2 fantasy points against the Hornets. Prior to that, he had 36.2 fantasy points against the Pacers. The Knicks rank 26th against the position in their last 15 games and Dunn has been the most consistent Bulls guard over the last couple of weeks. ****
