FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – Feb. 3, 2019
High Salary PF
Players costing over $6,667
Serge Ibaka (vs LAC – $7,300): Needs 31.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Ibaka has been a good option for the Raptors all season and now he gets the Clippers on a back-to-back. Ibaka had 46.8 fantasy points against them on Dec. 11. I love Ibaka’s game right now and he should deliver another strong outing. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Montrezl Harrell (at TOR – $7,200): Needs 31 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 30.9 fantasy points against Detroit. Harrell has been solid in recent outings but not quite good enough to give you what you need at this salary. And this is a tough matchup on a back-to-back. If nothing else, he should get you value but there are more cost effective options at this position and you’ve better off spending the extra $100 on Ibaka. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a decent ceiling.
Pascal Siakam (vs LAC – $6,800): Needs 29.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 36.1 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Siakam bounced back will a good performance against the Bucks and now he’s entering another good matchup against the Clippers. You can pair Ibaka and Siakam at this position and feel good with what you’re going to get. Both are reliable options and one of them will end up hitting in a nice way. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
