FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – November 28, 2018
High Salary SF
Players costing over $6,667
Giannis Antetokounmpo (vs CHI – $12,100): Needs 49.7 fantasy points. It’s Giannis coming off a loss against the Bulls. Take him with all the confidence in the world. The only potential issue is a blowout, but the Bulls have been scrappy for most of this year and they’ll probably want to give Parker a lift as he returns to Milwaukee. Even in limited minutes, I would expect big things from Giannis. At worst, he’s giving you 50 fantasy points. Diagnosis: Giannis against a great matchup. You know the drill with him.
Paul George (vs CLE – $9,500): Needs 39 fantasy points. Paul has been over 40 fantasy points in every game since the last time the Thunder met Cleveland on Nov. 7. Westbrook didn’t play in that game, but George should have been better. He’s putting up numbers in all categories and always has high scoring potential, even if he hasn’t quite shown it in recent games. The matchup is great. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Jabari Parker (at MIL – $7,400): Needs 30.4 fantasy points. Parker has been great in recent games and now he returns to Milwaukee for a revenge game. He had 31.1 fantasy points against the Bucks on Nov. 16. He still has plenty to prove in this matchup and given the way he’s playing right now, I’m going to trust him heading into Wednesday. The ceiling is definitely there. Diagnosis: On a hot streak and will be extra motived in his Milwaukee return.
