DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – March 27, 2019
High Salary SF
Players costing over $6,250
Paul George (vs IND – $9,900): Needs 45.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 54.5 fantasy points against Memphis. George isn’t shooting with consistency or efficiency but we don’t care about that stuff in DFS. We just care about numbers. And George is still getting numbers. He’s been over 50 fantasy points in five of the last six games. He should be over 50 fantasy points once again by sheer volume and opportunities. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
Kyle Kuzma (at UTA – $6,600): Needs 30.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 22 fantasy points against Washington. It’s a back-to-back for the Lakers but if LeBron ends up resting, Kuzma will be the best playing on the floor for them. And it’s a tough matchup for the Lakers because the Jazz will come out hot. But someone has to get numbers for them and Kuzma is about the only option at this point. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Jabari Parker (at PHO – $6,400): Needs 29.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.75 fantasy points against LA Lakers. You can go with LeBron at this position but his minutes will probably be limited and I’m still not convinced that he will play in the back-to-back. That leaves Parker as the only player not covered. It’s a back-to-back for the Wizards as well but they are up against the Suns. And Parker can get his offensive numbers as long as the minutes are there. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
