DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 1, 2019
High Salary SG
Players costing over $6,250
Bradley Beal (at BOS – $8,700): Needs 40.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 45.5 fantasy points against Brooklyn. You just know what you’re getting with Beal. He’s been a strong option all season and he’ll continue to be so in this game. The Celtics can be a tough matchup but this is a different Celtics team. And not a very good one at the moment. Expect Beal to deliver like he’s done all season. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Jrue Holiday (at PHO – $7,900): Needs 37.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.25 fantasy points against LA Lakers. With Davis now on a set minutes restriction, Holiday has more time to work his magic without Davis dragging everyone down. And now he gets the Suns. He’s going to get you at least 40 fantasy points unless something goes wrong and the ceiling is much higher. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Buddy Hield (vs LAC – $6,800): Needs 31.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 51 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Hield has been on a roll for a while now and I love this game from a DFS perspective. You can also look at Lou Williams in this spot but I like the way Hield is playing a bit more right now, the Kings are at home and I just think the Kings are a better team than the Clippers. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
