Daily Fantasy NBA Lineup Picks for FanDuel (12/3/16) - DFS Basketball Advice

With eight games on the NBA, 'All-Day' slate, we are left with seven in the main slate that I am going to focus on. I have found some sleeper picks for you guys and I'm excited about today. Hopefully Ill catch some of you in the chat room to help make that good lineup, perfect.

I choose the players I advise for my own lineup so if all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you. Lets get rolling...

FanDuel DFS Guards

Goran Dragic - PG, @ POR ($7,100)

Let's start off with a consistent option for the perfect matchup. For some reason everyone has been having career games when going against the Portland backcourt. I don't want to say Damian Lillard's defense has been bad but...it certainly hasn't been good. Dragic has had a very solid last three games, topping 50 FPS one time while scoring at least 15 points with five assists in all three. His price is a tad higher than I would have liked but for what he is going to produce, his price is likely to increase. The Heat have been desperate for some type of consistency offensively and without Dragic they struggled to generate any type of team offense. With Tragic as the main ball handler in Miami, his minutes aren't in question and he can be safely played until proven otherwise.

Klay Thompson - SG, vs. PHO ($6,000)

This is the game. Two teams, incredible pace between the two and some of the premier shooters in the league. That being said, Im going with one of the most consistent shooters in the league. I know that this game may fall under the blowout category but if you have been watching the Warriors, there is always one of their "big four" on the court. If the game does turn into a blowout, expect Thompson to still get his share of touches.

Devin Booker - SG @ GS ($5,900)

If you are going to go with shooters you need to include Devin Booker. I am not a big fan of Booker but I can't deny that he can shoot. This game will bring A TON of shots and I expect Booker to be taking most of the shots coming from Pheonix. After scoring 30 against the Nuggets, he put up 13 against the Hawks which means he is primed for a bounce back game when the Suns are going to absolutely need him at his best. His price has dropped from the start of the season and this would be a good time to take advantage of that.

Also Consider:   Deron Williams- PG, vs. CHI ($5,700)

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Shabazz Muhammad - SF, @ CHA ($3,500)

This comes with a bit of risk but the way he has been playing, the minutes he has been getting, and the way the Timberwolves have been playing, makes me believe that Muhammad will start to get more and more minutes. He has been one of the few Timberwolves bench players that has been able to score but he hasn't played much over 20 minutes this season. That is worrisome when it comes to fantasy but in a back-to-back, this may actually work out in his favor. The Hornets have struggled against opposing SF's recently and with a Minnesota team that is desperate for bench scoring, Muhammad is basement level pricing with upside.

Kevin Durant - SF, vs PHO ($10,500)

You see why I suggested Shabazz Muhammad? I am not kidding when I say that I am rolling with three Warriors in my lineup. Its hard to pass them up when they are all scoring near 30 each every night. The Warriors style allows for them to play the whole game regardless of score and it has been working. Durant has been captaining the scoring effort each night by knocking down nearly every shot he takes. I mean, do I REALLY need to convince you why Kevin Durant would be a good pick?

Also Consider:  Julius Randle - PF, @ MEM ($6,600)

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Hassan Whiteside - C, @ POR, ($8,600)

You see that price? You see his opponent?! You would have thought this matchup would have brought a near $10,000 price tag on Hassan Whiteside. Not only has the Portland back court struggled, the front court has been picked on by most DFS players all season. Whiteside is going to feast in Portland, this is a prime opportunity for Whiteside to greatly exceed his projection.

Also Consider: Al Horford- C, @ PHI ($7,300)
