DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 3, 2019
High Value C
Players costing $6,250 or under
Alex Len (vs PHI – $5,500): Needs 26.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37.75 fantasy points against San Antonio. As long as the Hawks are undermanned in their frontcourt, I’m going to keep riding Alex Len. Especially with the Sixers missing Embiid. He’s coming off a strong performance against the Spurs and while it is a back-to-back for the Hawks, I still like the circumstances with him on Wednesday. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Richaun Holmes (vs UTA – $5,200): Needs 24.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 30.5 fantasy points against Cleveland. Holmes is drawing the start for the Suns and if he’s going to start then I assume he’s going to get the minutes. The Jazz should easily walk away with this game but someone has to get frontcourt numbers for the Suns and Holmes has been a strong option as of late. The Jazz might be resting guys as well in their frontcourt, which would help Holmes. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Maxi Kleber (vs MIN – $5,100): Needs 23.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.25 fantasy points against Philadelphia. Kleber is up and down but this is a great matchup for him as the Timberwolves aren’t going to play defense and Towns is taking some minutes off throughout the game. Kleber remains at a good salary given his minutes and recent production. He should get you value if nothing else in this game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
