FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 28, 2018
Bucks-Celtics (Series Tied 3-3)
Giannis and Horford are the two players who will deliver in Game 7. I’m extremely confident in Giannis because he’s the best player on the court. And I’m fairly confident in Horford.
Both teams have question marks below that. Terry Rozier and Khris Middleton are the two strongest second options. Although based on salary, Jabari Parker might be a better second option on Milwaukee. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have looked good one game and invisible the next. The same for Eric Bledsoe.
Game 7 is a time of guaranteed value. The top guys are going to play 40-plus minutes and have the ball in their hands a lot. Marcus Morris and Marcus Smart are the two best value options because they have a low salary and will see enough minutes and chances to put up solid fantasy numbers.
Pelicans-Warriors (Series Tied 0-0)
The status of Steph Curry flips the value of just about everyone on the Warriors. It makes it more likely that Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson are at value, but significantly lowers their ceiling. Andre Iguodala may suffer the most as he’ll move back to his bench role.
The Pelicans were carried by their four top guys in the first round. That doesn’t change in Game 1. Holiday and Davis will deliver. Rondo has a history of delivering in the playoffs. Miortic is the guy I’m most worried about. He’s either going to be fantastic once again. Or he’s going to be a huge bust.
