DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 3, 2018
High Value SG
Josh Richardson, MIA vs ATL ($5,900): Richardson has been over value in three straight and is coming off a 29.75 fantasy point effort against the Nets on Saturday. He’s owned the Hawks this season, averaging 41.5 fantasy points in two games against them. They haven’t played since December, but the Heat have gotten better while the Hawks are still the Hawks. He needs 25.9 fantasy points to hit value and should push 30 fantasy points given recent play and the matchup. ***
Gerald Green, HOU vs WAS ($5,500): Green was back on the bench on Sunday, contributing 25.5 fantasy points in 29 minutes against the Spurs. Getting shots is rarely a problem for Green and given the amount of shots he gets, he’s bound to knockdown a handful of threes. His real value comes from his rebounding. He needs 24.1 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. The Rockets wanting to get back into rhythm is probably bad news for an inconsistent Wizards squad. ***
Marco Belinelli, PHI vs BKN ($4,200): Belinelli wasn’t on any slate on Sunday, but posted 28.75 fantasy points against the Hornets. He’s seeing increased playing time as the Sixers continue to blowout opponents. He’s also seeing increased playing time with injuries to Joel Embiid and now Dario Saric. He needs 18.4 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. Given his hot shooting, opportunities in the Sixers offense, and opponent, he should be over 20 fantasy points without much issue. And 25-plus fantasy points is not unreasonable expectations. ****
