DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 18, 2019
High Value SF
Players costing $6,250 or under
Bojan Bogdanovic (at POR – $5,900): Needs 27.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.5 fantasy points against Denver. Even though he was down against the Nuggets, don’t be too concerned. He’s been too good this season to think it was anything more than an off night. He’s been a very reliable option all season and the Blazers, with the injury to McCollum, might take a while to figure things out. Bogdanovic will bounce back. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Cedi Osman (vs DET – $5,600): Needs 26 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.75 fantasy points against Dallas. Cedi has been over 34 fantasy points in three of his last four games. The minutes and opportunities are there and he just continues to play well. Love’s return has certainly helped his value as Love takes a lot of pressure off of him. The Pistons are a weird team and they are on a back-to-back. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Jaylen Brown (vs DEN – $4,800): Needs 22.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.25 fantasy points against Atlanta. You never know quite what you’re going to get from Brown but he’s playing fairly well right now and getting the minutes to produce, which counts for something. The Celtics will need him to step up in this matchup. The Nuggets bench is deep and the Celtics are a team that can match them thanks to Brown, as long as Brown can step up. It’s admittedly a gut feeling. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
