FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 4, 2018
High Value PF
John Henson, MIL at BKN ($5,500): Henson missed value against the Knicks, posting 15.1 fantasy points in that contest. The Nets are 26th against power forwards in their last 15 games. Henson is more of a center, but the Nets are 29th against centers in their last 15 games. Either way you look at it, this is a fantastic matchup for the Milwaukee big man. His rebounding numbers will be up and he’s provide enough points, leading to a strong fantasy point game. Expect him to be over 25 fantasy points and don’t be surprised if he pushes 30 fantasy points. ****
JaMychal Green, MEM at TOR ($4,900): After missing a handful of games with an ankle injury, Green returned against the Pistons on Thursday, posting 17.9 fantasy points in 20 minutes. If he’s back in his usual starting role, that means his minutes should be up. If his minutes are up, his production should follow suit. He’s a solid scorer and a strong rebounder who needs 20.8 fantasy points to hit value. If he starts, he’ll hit value. If he comes off the bench, he’s a bit more of a risk, but is still a solid play on a slow day of action. ***
Kyle Kuzma, LAL at OKC ($4,900): Kuzma has missed value in four straight, struggling to score and not making up that value in other areas. If you want to take a look at Larry Nance Jr., who is more reliable as of now, that would not be a bad idea. However, the Thunder defense has had a lot of trouble defending the three-point line and Kuzma is bound to snap out of this slump at some point. Why not have it be against a weary Thunder team that is still in defensive shambles due to a tough schedule and the loss of Andre Roberson? ***
