FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 26, 2019
High Salary SF
Players costing over $6,667
Giannis Antetokounmpo (vs HOU – $12,400): Needs 51.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 56.5 fantasy points against Cleveland. The Bucks will be more cautious with Giannis than the Rockets will because the Bucks have a smart coach and not Mike D’Antoni. But Giannis will want to make a statement in this game to solidify his MVP status as well and he will deliver, even if the minutes are slightly more limited than Harden’s. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Kawhi Leonard (vs CHI – $10,400): Needs 43.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 47.3 fantasy points against Charlotte. Even with all the games, it’s a rough night at small forward because it’s just kind of a weak position. This isn’t a game that is really going to push Kawhi, which makes me believe his numbers might be slightly down. But he’s still a guy with a high ceiling and he’ll get some amount of numbers. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Danilo Gallinari (at MIN – $7,600): Needs 31.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35.1 fantasy points against New York. If you’re looking for a more reliable player, you can always go with Gallinari. He just continues to deliver for the Clippers and he’ll deliver once again. You know what you’re getting out of him and while his ceiling isn’t great on most nights, he’s still a very reliable option. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
