DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 14, 2018
High Salary SG
James Harden, HOU vs SAC ($11,400): Harden needs 51.3 fantasy points to reach value on Wednesday. He had 67 fantasy points against the Timberwolves on Tuesday and enters a matchup against a Kings team that ranks 17th against shooting guards in their last 15 games. Harden should be in for another 50-plus fantasy point night. He’ll likely need to do a lot of damage in a little time, but that’s less of a concern when it comes to Harden given his shooting and playmaking. ****
Bradley Beal, WAS at NY ($8,900): If the Wizards don’t have a point guard on Wednesday, that infinitely increases Beal’s already high value. He struggled against the Bulls on Saturday, contributing just 20.5 fantasy points in that contest. But the circumstances may dictate a big night on Wednesday if the Wizards are missing another point guard or two. He had 47.5 fantasy points against the Knicks on Jan. 3. There’s a good change he is over 50 fantasy points in this contest. *****
Zach LaVine, CHI vs TOR ($7,300): LaVaine has been over value in five straight. He looks as healthy as he’s been all season and is contributing in all areas for the Bulls. He and Lauri Markkanen are becoming a fierce two-man duo who will only get better with time. The Raptors are on a back-to-back and the Bulls are at home, which helps their case on Wednesday. LaVine will be around 40 fantasy points once again in this contest. *****
