FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 13, 2019
High Salary SG
Players costing over $6,667
Bradley Beal (at TOR – $9,700): Needs 42 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 62.2 fantasy points against Detroit. You pretty much know what you’re getting from Beal at this point. He’s been a very reliable option because he leads a sneaky good offense and these big matchups seem to bring out the best in him. He had 88.5 fantasy points against the Raptors on Jan. 13, although that game went to double OT. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
D’Angelo Russell (at CLE – $9,000): Needs 38.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 56.4 fantasy points against Toronto. Russell continues to stay hot and now he gets to go up against the Cavaliers. The only concern in this game is a blowout because the Nets are a good team and the Cavaliers are a very bad team. But Russell will put up big numbers for as long as he’s in the game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Lou Williams (vs PHO – $8,100): Needs 35 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 48.2 fantasy points against Minnesota. I don’t know what’s going on with the Clippers. Some guys are playing hard but others aren’t playing well. Their defense is a mess. They don’t seem to want to win because of the trades. But I know Lou Williams is a competitor and he doesn’t want to lose to the Suns. So he’ll come up with a big game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
