DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 26, 2019
High Salary C
Players costing over $6,250
Karl-Anthony Towns (vs LAC – $10,700): Needs 51.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 71.25 fantasy points against Memphis. Even in limited minutes, Towns will probably deliver a huge game because that’s just the player he is at this point. The Clippers can be a tough matchup but I’m not doubting late season Towns. These Kentucky players just know how to show up for meaningless games in March. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Montrezl Harrell (at MIN – $7,100): Needs 33.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.5 fantasy points against New York. And if you want to take advantage of the Timberwolves not be a very good team, especially on the defensive end, you can grab Harrell. He’s been strong in recent weeks and as long as the minutes are there, he’ll put up a big game. He had 47 fantasy points against the Timberwolves on Feb. 11. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
JaVale McGee (vs WAS – $6,500): Needs 31.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 47 fantasy points against Sacramento. JaVale is still the best center in the league. And now he gets a great matchup against the Wizards. You can always take advantage of the Wizards. If LeBron plays, even in limited minutes, McGee’s value goes up because LeBron just makes him better. He’ll play with energy because he doesn’t know any better and is used to these games still mattering. Poor guy used to play for the Warriors. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
