FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 11, 2019
High Salary SG
Players costing over $6,667
Bradley Beal (at DET – $9,600): Needs 41.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 49.4 fantasy points against Chicago. You pretty much know what you’re getting from Beal at this point. He’s been very reliable with Wall out of the lineup and the two new pieces make his job easier. The matchup is a good one as the Pistons, who have been better, still can’t be all the way trusted. And offense has never really been an issue for Beal and the Wizards. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
D’Angelo Russell (at TOR – $8,600): Needs 37.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 36.2 fantasy points against Chicago. The return of LeVert will start to cut into Russell’s value at some point but LeVert isn’t all the way healthy and will continues to be on a minutes restriction. And even though this matchup seems tough, Russell have thrived against the Raptors. He’s averaging 42.6 fantasy points in two games against them this season and 45.6 fantasy points in his last four. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
CJ McCollum (at OKC – $7,600): Needs 33 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.5 fantasy points against Dallas. McCollum was hot coming into the Dallas game but cooled off a bit. It’s a back-to-back but this is a matchup McCollum has thrived against in his career. He had 38.1 fantasy points against the Thunder on Jan. 22 and is averaging 37.4 fantasy points in his last five games against OKC. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
