FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – January 20, 2019
High Value PF
Players costing $6,667 or under
Thaddeus Young (vs CHA – $6,600): Needs 28.7 fantasy points. Young had 22.4 fantasy points against the Mavericks on Saturday. It was a rare down game for Young but don’t be too concerned. He’s played too well this season to think that it was anything more than an off night. He has a good matchup on Sunday and I expect him to bounce back with a his usual production. Diagnosis: Expect him to return to form with a reliable performance.
Marvin Williams (at IND – $5,700): Needs 24.8 fantasy points. Marvin had 22.8 fantasy points against the Suns on Saturday. His minutes were down as the Hornets had little trouble with the Suns but they should be back up in this game given the Pacers frontcourt rotation. Marvin rarely lacks for shots and he’ll chip in with rebounds. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a good ceiling.
Josh Jackson (at MIN – $4,700): Needs 20.5 fantasy points. This is all about the circumstances. The Suns could be without Holmes and Ayton, meaning Jackson could get more minutes. It’s not a guaranteed and it’s even less of a guarantee that he’ll do anything with those minutes, But the the circumstances could work out in his favor. Diagnosis: Could benefit big from the circumstances. It’ll be up to him to deliver.
