FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – December 19, 2017
High Salary PG
John Wall, WAS vs NO ($9,500): Wall is still working his way back from injury, but his minutes and production has gone up in every game. He should be around 35 minutes on Tuesday. He averaging 1.16 FPPM when he plays 35+ minutes. The Pelicans are 29th against the position in their last 15 games, making this a great matchup for Wall. ****
Eric Bledsoe, MIL vs CLE ($7,100): Bledsoe has missed value in two straight finished just three points over value in the previous two games before that. He’s struggled to score and when he’s not scoring, he’s not doing enough in other categories to make up the value. The Cavaliers are third against the position in their last 15 games. Bledsoe can be a big time player, but he’s a bit risky given his recent play and this matchup. **
High Value PG
George Hill, SAC at PHI ($4,700): Hill managed just 15.1 fantasy points in 19 minutes on Nov. 9 against the Sixers. Minutes have been inconsistent this season, which is worrying. De’Aaron Fox is questionable, and if he misses this one, Hill’s usage should be up. The Sixers are on a back-to-back and rank 23rd against the position in their last 15 games. ****
Rajon Rondo, NO at WAS ($6,000): Rondo was back at value against the Nuggets after struggling against the Bucks. The Wizards are 10th against the position in their last 15 games. His assist and rebound numbers have been down in the last two games and he’s not enough of a scorer to make up that value. I like him at value (25.6 fantasy points) but not much higher. ***
