FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 10, 2018
High Salary SF
Giannis Antetokounmpo, MIL at ORL ($11,500): The Bucks are on a back-to-back, but that should not matter much against the Magic and their lack of defense. Antetokounmpo had 36.9 fantasy points against the Magic on Jan. 10. That was in the middle of his slump, something he’s snapped out of in recent weeks. He had 40.5 fantasy points on Friday against the Heat. He should have an easier time against Orlando, giving you 50-plus fantasy points once again. *****
Kevin Durant, GS vs SA ($10,500): Durant has been up-and-down in his last four. The Warriors Big 4 have struggled more than usual in recent contests, but Durant has been the most reliable of the bunch. He was up against the Mavericks, pouring in 48.8 fantasy points in that contest. He had 48.1 fantasy points against the Spurs on Nov. 2. You know what you’re getting from Durant on most nights. He’s going to be around 45 fantasy points and there is always a chance he goes over 50 fantasy points. Expect another solid outing from the Warriors forward on Saturday. ***
Otto Porter Jr., WAS at CHI ($7,400): The Bulls are 25th against the position in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. Portter Jr. had 28.4 fantasy points against Chicago on Dec. 31. That number would put him under value on Saturday, but don’t expect him to post a number that low. He’s been great with John Wall out of the lineup and could see extra opportunities if Markieff Morris ends up missing this one. Porter Jr. should be around 35 fantasy points, with a chance he pushes 40 fantasy points in this one. ****
