DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 15, 2018
High Salary PG
Eric Bledsoe, MIL vs DEN ($7,100): Bledsoe has been over value in five straight. His scoring has dropped in each game, but he’s making up that value with assists and defense. His scoring should be back up against the Nuggets defense. He needs 32.1 fantasy points to reach value and should get you at least 35 fantasy points on Thursday. ****
Brandon Ingram, LAL at MIN ($6,300): Ingram hit value once again against the Pelicans, posting 30.5 fantasy points on Wednesday. He’s been over value in six straight. He had 22.75 fantasy points on Jan. 1 against the Timberwolves. He played only 29 minutes in that contest, so that could explain why his production was down. His minutes will be up and his production will remain around 30 fantasy points. ****
High Value PG
Jeff Teague, MIN vs LAL ($6,200): Teague has been over value in three of his last four. He’s coming off a 43.75 fantasy point performance against the Rockets. He had 31.25 fantasy points against the Lakers on Christmas and needs 28 fantasy points to reach value on Thursday. He’s inconsistent, but has shown the ability to have huge games. He’ll be around value in this one. ***
Isaiah Thomas, LAL at MIN ($5,800): Thomas was ejected early in the game against the Pelicans. If nothing else, he should have fresh legs when the Lakers take the floor on Thursday. It’s still tough to know how Thomas is going to do with the Lakers because he’s played only one game with them, but the Minnesota defense is a good one to find your rhythm against. He should be around value. ***
