FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 7, 2018
High Value PG
Ish Smith, DET vs BKN ($6,300): Smith missed value by 2.2 fantasy points against the Trail Blazers on Monday. His salary has dropped as a result, which is good news for his value on Wednesday. The Nets are 27th against the position in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. The Pistons offense is clicking with Blake Griffin and Smith does his part in scoring and picking up assists. His scoring should be back up to double-digits on Wednesday, leading to a nice performance where he’s over value. ***
Jeff Teague, MIN at CLE ($5,800): Get ready to read a lot about the Timberwolves. They dominated Cleveland when these two teams met a month ago. Teague missed value against the Pelicans, but his salary has dropped back down to where he needs 24.2 fantasy points to reach value. The Timberwolves are well rested, having not played since Saturday, and the Cavaliers are on a back-to-back. All signs point to multiple Minnesota players have strong performances. Teague will do his part in contributing. ****
Dejounte Murray, SA at PHO ($5,500): Murray has missed value in his last two, failing to crack 20 fantasy points in both contests. Don’t give up on Murray just yet, especially against this matchup. The Suns have the worst defense in the league and rank 19th against the poison in their last 15 games. His assist numbers have gone down and his playing time is slightly down, but this matchup is too good to pass up on and Murray will bounce back over value on Wednesday. ****
