FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 25, 2019
High Value PG
Players costing $6,667 or under
Ricky Rubio (vs PHO – $6,500): Needs 28.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 22.3 fantasy points against Chicago. Rubio was down against the Bulls because the Jazz just didn’t need him to be all that good. He should be better against the Suns although I’m not sure they’ll need him all that much in this matchup either. He had just 18.6 fantasy points in 22 minutes when these two teams met on Mar. 13. The salary might be a tad too high for him to hit. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a good ceiling.
DJ Augustin (vs PHI – $5,800): Needs 25.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39.2 fantasy points against Memphis. Augustin has been playing well as of late and the minutes and opportunities are always there for him. He had just 22.9 fantasy points against the Sixers on Mar. 5 and hasn’t exactly played great against them this season, but your options are limited on Monday and he does have a good ceiling. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
Seth Curry (vs BKN – $4,100): Needs 18.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 23.5 fantasy points against Detroit. Curry has stepped up in a big way with McCollum out and is running the second unit very well while also getting minutes next to Lillard and Nurkick. It’s a good matchup, the minutes and opportunities are there and he’s at a great salary given his usual minutes. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
