DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 13, 2019
High Salary SF
Players costing over $6,250
Paul George (vs BKN – $9,600): Needs 45 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 40.75 fantasy points against Utah. I don’t know what’s up with PG’s shooting (it’s his shoulder) but he’s finding other ways to contribute. And his long hot streak started with the buzzer beat against the Nets. So maybe it will start again with a game against the Nets? Maybe some wishful thinking. But he can’t miss every shot forever, can he? Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.
Aaron Gordon (at WAS – $6,700): Needs 31.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35 fantasy points against Phoenix. I don’t know if Gordon is going to play in this game as he’s listed as questionable and I usually don’t like to list anyone who is under questionable. But it’s a weak night at the forward position in terms of high salary guys. Find value here, load up on guards. If Gordon plays, the matchup is great because it’s the Wizards. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Joe Ingles (at PHO – $6,200): Needs 28.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 23 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Ingles was down against the Thunder, a rare sight, but expect him to bounce back against the Suns. Even if the Suns are a better team now, that just means the Jazz will have to play harder and their top guys will have to contribute more. And Ingles is one of their few reliable offensive producers. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
