FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 22, 2019
High Salary SF
Players costing over $6,667
Paul George (at TOR – $10,600): Needs 44 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35 fantasy points against Toronto. Paul George is broken again. Sometimes he looks healthy, other times he doesn’t. The ceiling is high but going against Kawhi is a tough matchup and with George’s shoulder issues, he’s not the most trustworthy guy, especially on the road. This salary is just too high with the overall uncertainty. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.
Kawhi Leonard (vs OKC – $9,900): Needs 41.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. I much prefer Kawhi who comes at a cheaper price and is a more reliable option. Kawhi always steps his game up when he has a tough matchup in front of him and George remains a tough matchup despite the shoulder issues. Kawhi will deliver with another strong game, probably better than Wednesday. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Danilo Gallinari (at CLE – $7,600): Needs 31.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.9 fantasy points against Indiana. As always, you just know what you’re getting from Gallinari. He has been a reliable option for most of the season, remains at a great salary, and is up against the Cavaliers. This should be an easy night for Gallinari as he gets plenty of points and rebounds, leading to an overall strong game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
