DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – May 3, 2018
High Salary PF
Al Horford ($7,300): Horford has been consistent for most of the postseason and has been even better at home. He’s been over 40 fantasy points in three of his last four games. He contributes in a variety of ways and will do the same in Game 2. ****
Dario Saric ($6,500): Saric struggled with his shot in Game 1, but did enough in the rebounding and assist categories to put himself at value. He’s been consistent against the Celtics all season and there’s reason to believe the shots will start falling in Game 2. ***
High Value PF
Kevin Love ($6,000): Ok, he has to his value this time. Right? Love has finally dropped below the average player salary and now moves into the value category. It’s been his scoring that has held him back in the playoffs. There’s no reason to think he’ll finally get hot, but he’s easier to fit into your lineup at this salary and there’s always a chance he finally hits the net. **
Ersan Ilyasova ($4,800): Ilyasova had 21.75 fantasy points in Game 1. Like Saric, the shots weren’t falling, but the rebounds were there. He’s been cold from the field in his last few games, but he continues to make an impact with his rebounding. He’s a more reliable option than Serge Ibaka and Robert Covington at the moment.
