DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup – April 6, 2019
High Salary SG
Players costing over $6,250
Khris Middleton (vs BKN – $7,100): Needs 32.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.75 fantasy points against Philadelphia. Middleton may not see many minutes in this game as the Bucks have no reason to extend him with nothing on the line for them. But it’s a slow night and Middleton should get enough minutes to at least get you value in this one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a decent ceiling.
JJ Redick (at CHI – $6,000): Needs 27.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 42.5 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Redick has found his shooting touch for the Sixers at the right time. And now he gets the Bulls. The minutes and shots will continue to be there for him and with the way he’s shooting lately, he should have no issue delivering a big game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
High Value SG
Players costing $6,250 or under
Walt Lemon Jr. (vs PHI – $5,500): Needs 26.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.75 fantasy points against Washington. Lemon Jr. is one of those random guys who is stepping up late in the season as the Bulls have all the injuries right now. The Sixers defense remains a mess and someone has to get numbers for the Bulls. Lemon Jr. has certainly been that guy lately. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
Sterling Brown (vs BKN – $4,700): Needs 21.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 24.25 fantasy points against Philadelphia. Brown keeps starting for the Bucks and he continues to play very well for them. He also remains at a great salary for the minutes and usual production he gives you. I love Brown on Saturday and he should definitely be in your lineup. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
