FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 27, 2018
High Salary PG
Russell Westbrook ($11,000): Westbrook had 68.5 fantasy points in Game 5. He exploded in the second half and if he’s going down this season, he’s going down on his terms. That means grabbing every rebound and taking nearly every shot. He’ll be over 50 fantasy points and likely then some. *****
John Wall ($10,800): Wall has been the best player all series, going 10-plus fantasy points over value in four games and 20-plus fantasy points over value in three games. He’s been fantastic in both games in Washington. There’s a lot to love at point guard on Friday and Wall is just behind Westbrook in delivering. *****
High Value PG
Darren Collison ($5,600): Collison has been up-and-down in this series. He was down in Game 5. If you trust the trend, he’ll be back up in Game 6. His salary has dropped and he remains the better option over Cory Joseph due to his role in the starting lineup. Expect him to bounce back. ***
Delon Wright ($5,000): Wright has been great for the majority of this series. His production has dipped on the road, which is a slight concern. The other concern is that Fred VanVleet returns to the lineup. If he plays, Wright’s playing time may be reduced. If he doesn’t play, he’ll at least be at value. ***
