DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 3, 2019
High Salary SG
Players costing over $6,250
Bradley Beal (vs CHI – $9,000): Needs 41.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.75 fantasy points against Denver. Beal is kind of up-and-down right now as he strikes the balance between caring and not caring. The matchup is a great one because the Bulls aren’t offering much in terms of defense right now. Beal is averaging 41.9 fantasy points in three games against the Bulls this season. His ceiling is high and given the matchup, he should deliver. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Andrew Wiggins (at DAL – $7,100): Needs 32.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37.25 fantasy points against Portland. Andrew Wiggins is now the man we thought he was going to be. Or he’s just putting up numbers in meaningless games. It’s probably the latter. But the game will continue to be meaningless for him and he has a great matchup on Wednesday with the Mavericks and their overall lack of defense. I like his game right now and he remains at a good enough salary. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
Bojan Bogdanovic (at DET – $6,500): Needs 30 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 42.75 fantasy points against Detroit. Bogdanovic’s salary climbs a bit more but given the production he’s giving you right now, he should continue to get it done, even at the slightly higher salary. He’s coming off a strong game against the Pistons and has overall just been a reliable player this season. The Pistons don’t offer much in terms of defense, which always helps. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
