FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – November 14, 2018
High Salary C
Players costing over $6,667
Rudy Gobert (at DAL – $8,500): Needs 37.8 fantasy points. Gobert has been over 43 fantasy points in his last three games. More importantly, he’s averaging 52.1 fantasy points in his two games against the Mavericks this season. This is just a matchup he’s done great against and I see no reason to doubt him on Wednesday. The points and rebounds should be there and he does plenty on the defensive end. Diagnosis: Playing very well and a fantastic matchup that he’s dominated this season.
Steven Adams (vs NY – $8,000): Needs 35.6 fantasy points. Adams continues to play well in the absence of Russell Westbrook. He should have no issue feasting on the poor Knicks frontcourt, especially his old friend Steven Adams. He had 42.5 fantasy points against the Knicks last season. Maybe doesn’t have the highest ceiling on the night, but is one of the most reliable options at center and guaranteed to produce. Diagnosis: Love everything about Adams on Wednesday.
Julius Randle (at MIN – $7,300): Needs 32.5 fantasy points. Randle followed up his 45.5 fantasy point game against the Suns with 35.4 fantasy points against the Raptors. The Timberwolves present an easy matchup as I don’t trust where they’ll be at with the new pieces. And if Randle starts, he’s proven to be a strong contributor next to Holiday and Davis. As long as he starts, take him with confidence. Diagnosis: Matchup is good and he’s proven to have a high ceiling as the starter.
