FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 1, 2019
High Value SF
Players costing $6,667 or under
Nicolas Batum (at BKN – $6,100): Needs 26.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.2 fantasy points against Houston. Batum has been great in the last two games and three out of his last four. His one down game was against the Nets where he had just 25.3 fantasy points. Expect him to be better in this one given his usual minutes and production. He can do a bit of everything on a good night and I expect this to be a good night for him. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Nikola Mirotic (at LAL – $5,800): Needs 24.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.1 fantasy points against Sacramento. Mirotic had a been outing in his last game and his minutes continue to increase as a member of the Bucks. And now he has a great matchup against the Lakers. This should be another big performance from Mirotic, who is perfect for what this Bucks team likes to do. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Maurice Harkless (at TOR – $5,300): Needs 22.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37 fantasy points against Boston. Harkless has been great during this road trip for the Blazers. This is a tough matchup, definitely the toughest of the trip, but I like the way the Blazers are playing right now and Harkless continues to get big minutes. They’ll need him to step up once again if they want to pull off this victory. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
