DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 10, 2019
High Value PG
Players costing $6,250 or under
Delon Wright (vs ORL – $4,600): Needs 21.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26 fantasy points against Utah. Wright continues to play well off the bench, doing a bit of everything for the Grizzlies. The Magic play to their competition, so this should be a close game. And the Grizzlies are at least playing hard right now, which counts for a little something. It’s a nice value night as the end of the season is just the weirdest time. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
Frank Jackson (at ATL – $4,200): Needs 20 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 27 fantasy points against Toronto. With Holiday out of the lineup, Jackson is drawing the start. The minutes will be there and he’s at a good salary, which helps his case. And he gets Atlanta, which means the pace will be up and there will be plenty of opportunities. It’s just a good set of circumstances for Jackson. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Jalen Brunson (vs HOU – $4,100): Needs 19.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33.5 fantasy points against Orlando. Brunson has been all over the place, even as a starter, but he’s played well in the last two games. The Rockets are rounding into form, which makes this a tough match, but the Mavericks at home are a solid team. And he’s at a good salary given his usual minutes. If you want to spend more and get someone reliable, go with Malcolm Brogdon. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
