DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (3/4/16): NBA DFS Advice

There is a full slate of games tonight, and we have plenty of matchups that could be extremely high scoring. One of my favorite games to attack is the Hawks/Lakers, but I also love the Heat/Sixers matchup tonight.

Okay, so back to business. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/4/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on DraftKings.

DraftKings DFS Guards

Dwyane Wade (at PHI, $7,200)

Wade has great upside, as he has scored 45+ fantasy points in two of his last four games. He has been playing more back up point guard recently because of the injuries to Tyler Johnson and Beno Udrih. That gives Wade more time with the ball in his hands, which creates opportunities for points and assists. He gets a great matchup against the Sixers, who he dominated for 49.3 fantasy points earlier this season. The Sixers don’t have anyone who can guard Wade, and he’s a great option tonight.

D’Angelo Russell (vs ATL, $6,300)

Russell has been on fire since gaining the Lakers starting point guard spot, as he’s averaging 41.9 fantasy points per game over his last four games. Lou Williams, Jordan Clarkson, and Kobe Bryant are all dealing with injuries, which means Russell is locked into big minutes, and he’ll likely take 20+ shots again tonight. He’s a tremendous player with the ball in his hands, and he can be used in all leagues until his price rises a bit more.

Zach LaVine (at MIL, $5,600) 

There are a few players tonight that are priced too low, and LaVine is one of those players. He has been starting for the Wolves for the last three games, and he has scored 30.25, 30.0, and 34.75 fantasy points in each of those games. He will continue to start tonight, and he should be able to exceed value once again. He gets a good matchup against the Bucks, who have struggled defensively this season, and LaVine is another player that can be used in all leagues.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Giannis Antetokounmpo (vs MIN, $7,800)

Alphabet has been on a tear recently, as he’s averaging 17.8 points, 10.6 rebounds, 7.8 assists, 2.0 blocks, and 1.8 steals per game over the last 10 days. He has two triple doubles in his last five games, and he scored 68.5 and 75.0 fantasy points in those two games. He’s a player that can contribute in each of the five categories, which gives him a great floor and ceiling combination. His price tag still isn’t very high, and he can be used in all leagues tonight.

Thad Young (at DEN, $6,900)

It’s amazing that Young’s price tag is this low, as he has been dominant in games against fast paced teams recently. Young has great upside, and he recently scored 38.25 fantasy points against the Nuggets. He’s a huge part of the Nets offense, and he’ll see 10+ shots every night. The Nuggets are dealing with a few injuries in their frontcourt, and Young should be able to take advantage of that tonight. He’s a great option in all contests tonight.

Kent Bazemore (at LAL, $5,300)

Bazemore is a streaky player, and he’s starting to heat up, as he recently scored 31.25, 26.5, and 28.25 fantasy points in his last three games. He has earned more minutes for the Hawks, and he will likely play 30+ minutes again tonight. He gets a great matchup against the Lakers, who have been a fantasy goldmine recently. He may be best suited for GPPs, but he isn’t the worst cash game play tonight, either.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Hassan Whiteside (at PHI, $8,300)

Whiteside has been arguably the best center in the NBA recently, as he’s averaging 19.0 points, 14.2 rebounds, 4.4 blocks, and 1.0 steals per game over the last 10 days. He’s one of the only players in the NBA that has the potential to triple double with points, rebounds, and blocks on any given night. He gets a great matchup against the Sixers tonight, who have struggled against talented big men, and Whiteside is far and away the best center option on the board tonight.
