FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – February 25, 2019
High Value SF
Players costing $6,667 or under
Rudy Gay (at BKN – $6,400): Needs 27.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 22 fantasy points against New York. The Spurs won’t be as bad against the Nets as they were against the Knicks. It’s just not possible. If they are, the Spurs might be toast in the West (they won’t be toast. They are the Spurs). Gay and everyone on the Spurs will have a better performance in this one. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
Bojan Bogdanovic (at DET – $6,200): Needs 26.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.8 fantasy points against Washington. Bogdanovic continues to play a reliable game for the Pacers with Oladipo out of the lineup. The pistons are playing better and looking to make a playoff push but the Pacers have been steady all season and did not tail off after the Oladipo injury, which is a good sign. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Nikola Mirotic (at CHI – $5,600): Needs 24 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.7 fantasy points against Minnesota. Mirotic could see his minutes increase with Giannis out of the lineup, but we got a glimpse of what he is capable of against the Timberwolves. He’s going to get his shots on the Bucks and he’s a very good shooter, so he’ll knock them down at a good clip. And his minutes will start to go up as he gets healthier. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
