FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 18, 2018
High Salary SG
James Harden, HOU at MIN ($11,400): Harden had 48.9 fantasy points against the Timberwolves on Feb. 23. That number would put him just over value on Sunday as he needs 46.4 fantasy points to justify his salary. After missing value in two straight, Harden had 61.2 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Saturday. He should hit value at the very least and will likely be over 50 fantasy points. ****
Jrue Holiday, NO vs BOS ($9,000): Holiday posted 46.2 fantasy points against the Rockets on Saturday. With Anthony Davis in the lineup, you can count on him to be over value just about every night. Davis has struggled (by his standards) in his last two games, but Holiday continues to be a strong sidekick. He had 48.3 fantasy points against the Celtics on Jan. 16 and should be over 40 fantasy points again on Sunday. *****
High Value SG
Andrew Wiggins, MIN vs HOU ($6,200): Wiggins had 33.5 fantasy points against the Spurs on Saturday. He’s been consistently right at value or over since Butler’s injury and needs 25.2 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. The lower salary makes him almost a sure thing on Sunday given the chances he sees in the Minnesota offense. He should be over 25 fantasy points without much trouble. ****
Eric Gordon, HOU at MIN ($5,100): Gordon has been hit-and-miss in his last six games. His hits have been great, going over 30 fantasy points. His misses have been bad as he’s been held under 20 fantasy points in all three games, going under 13 fantasy points in two of those contests. He missed on Saturday, so the trend would say he’ll hit on Sunday. He’s also been hit-and-miss against the Timberwolves, posting 42.1 fantasy points on Jan. 18, but only 14.5 fantasy points on Feb. 13. **
