NBA DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers – FantasyScore Advice for 11/26

Editor’s Note: RotoBaller is proud to be partnering with FantasyScore, our new and exclusive DFS partner. As a subsidiary of the USA TODAY Sports Media Group, FantasyScore has come to the daily league fantasy sports table with possibly the most exciting promotional offer in the DFS industry (along with a top notch product that is powered by one of the biggest media sites in the world).

For RotoBaller readers, FantasyScore is offering an instant 50% deposit bonus up to $250. No other DFS site offers an instant match bonus like this!

Other sites claim to provide users with matching dollars on their initial deposits. What they forget to mention is this is not an instant match, and you have to earn those "matched dollars" slowly over time, penny by penny.  This can be misleading, and discouraging to new depositors.

FantasyScore does not do this. They really, truly match your deposit, instantly. When you make your first deposit, you immediately get half of that amount, and you can immediately use it to play. No waiting, no earning it slowly, no gimmicks - just a really good offer, that no other DFS is matching.

 

NBA DFS Picks

All throughout the 2014-15 campaign, RotoBaller will be giving you the top NBA DFS lineup picks at the guard, forward and center positions as well as a couple of sleepers for the day. Below are our favorite picks for November 26th, 2014.

Keep in mind, fantasy basketball is a fickle game when it comes to injured players, so be sure to check all lineups prior to tip-off. If you want to chat about your roster picks, check out the DFS chat room at the bottom of this post.

 

Worth the Investment

John Wall (WAS, G) - $8,200

In their matchup last week, Wall torched Kyrie Irving to the tune of 28 points, six rebounds, seven assists and four steals. That game represented Wall’s third 50+ fantasy point night over his last nine games. Over that same stretch, he has produced less than 30 FP just once.

Generally speaking, Wall struggles a bit more on the road, but the matchup with a poor Cavs defense is simply too good to pass up. He will save you $800 from the top options tonight while possessing the same upside.

 

Paul Millsap (ATL, F) - $7,200

Continually one of the most underrated fantasy players, Millsap has been his ever consistent self so far this year, putting up 37.55 fantasy points per game. He has been particularly sharp of late with two 50+ outings during his six games including a monster 30 point and 17 rebound night a few weeks ago.

Wednesday night, the Hawks face a Raptors team that is getting up and down the floor a bit more this year which should make for a higher scoring game. With Amir Johnson still below 100 percent health, Millsap could be in line for another monster double-double effort.

 

DeMarcus Cousins (SAC, C) - $8,400

Cousins is the most expensive center for a reason. He is not only going to be option one and two on offense with Rudy Gay out, but is going to be up against a Houston team that is likely to be without Dwight Howard.

Over his last four games, Cousin has averaged a ridiculous 52.5 fantasy points. On the year, the former Kentucky big man is averaging 23.1 points, 12.3 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.2 steals per night. Despite his lofty price tag, Cousins should have no problem hitting value in what should be a high scoring affair.

 

Best Value Plays (Sleepers)

Iman Shumpert (NYK, G) - $2,800

All indications are that Carmelo Anthony will miss Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, meaning Shumpert is likely to see more touches on the offensive end. After a huge 21-point, 8-rebound, 8-assist game versus Milwaukee last week, Shumpert has cooled off, but still been able to go over 20 fantasy points in two of the last three.

Dallas has struggled guarding the wing position this year which means Shumpert and Tim Hardaway Jr. should both put together solid efforts for the Knicks.

 

Donatas Motiejunas (HOU, F) - $2,200

I will continue to write about Motiejunas until he is no longer minimum price. As noted above, Dwight Howard looks questionable at best for this game, so Motiejunas should continue to see big minutes.

Motiejunas has posted 20+ fantasy points in six of Houston’s last eight games, including 56 over the last two. Sacramento is an improving defensive team, but for minimum salary, Motiejunas is a virtual lock to produce 10X his value while allowing you roster several studs.
