DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (3/25/16): NBA DFS Advice

By Keith Allison [CC-BY-SA-2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

Justin Bales highlights the top daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for 3/25/16. These are the top value and sleeper plays for your DraftKings NBA DFS lineups.

As you can tell from the picks, I'm going to be attacking the Kings/Suns game tonight. DeMarcus Cousins is currently questionable, and it would be wise to make sure he's starting or out and adjust everyone accordingly.

Okay, back to business. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/25/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on DraftKings.

Without wasting anymore time, here are the picks!

DraftKings DFS Guards

 

Rajon Rondo (vs PHO, $7,800)

Rajon Rondo is coming off a near triple double with DeMarcus Cousins out in his last game, but unfortunately Boogie is expected to return tonight. However, Rondo gets a great matchup against the Suns, who have been the worst defense in the NBA against point guards this season. Rondo has played well in limited minutes against the Suns this season, and his price is fairly low tonight. He’s best suited for GPPs, as he isn’t a very consistent player, but he has more than enough upside for GPPs.

Devin Booker (at SAC, $6,600)

Devin Booker has been a feature part of the Suns offense, as he’s taking around 15-20 shots per game. He has also been playing big minutes for Phoenix. He’s averaging nearly one fantasy point per game against the Kings this season, and he will likely play around 40 minutes tonight. Sacramento has been one of the worst teams in the NBA against the shooting guard, and Booker should be able to light them up tonight. Generally, I use Booker more in GPPs, but I will be using him in all leagues tonight.

Darren Collison (vs PHO, $5,100)

I hate recommending three guards from the same game, but they all make tremendous options. Collison is entire too cheap, as he has scored 30+ fantasy points in four of his last six games. He’s averaging 27.1 fantasy points per game against the Suns, and he has been playing big minutes for Sacramento recently. Collison is nearly a lock to hit value at his current price tag, and he can be used in all leagues tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

 

DeMarcus Cousins (vs PHO, $10,300)

If you can’t tell by now, this is my favorite game to attack tonight. Boogie is currently listed as questionable, so make sure he’s starting before the game begins. Cousins was playing well before he was injured, as he was averaging 23.2 points, 13.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.2 blocks, and 1.8 steals per game over the last 10 days. The Suns love pushing the pace and they struggle defensively, which bodes well for Cousins’ fantasy outlook. If he’s announced the starter, he can be used in all leagues.

Otto Porter Jr. (vs MIN, $5,100)

Otto Porter Jr. was on fire before his last game, in which he was a huge disappointment. Tonight, he gets a much better matchup against the Wolves, who love pushing the pace to games. John Wall recently stated that he wants Porter shooting the ball more, and it’s only a matter of time before that happens. Porter scored 25+ fantasy points in six consecutive contests before his last game, including huge 37.0 and 41.5 fantasy point performances over that span. Porter can be used in all leagues tonight.

Kyle Anderson (vs MEM, $3,000)

Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out for tonight, which means Kyle Anderson will likely step into the starting lineup. He played 22 minutes in the game that Leonard was injured, and he should play closer to 30 minutes tonight. Anderson has flashed great upside when given the minutes, as he can fill the stat sheet in multiple different categories. The matchup against Memphis isn’t ideal, but they are dealing with a ton of injuries, which makes it a bit easier for Anderson. He should easily exceed value tonight, and he will likely be owned at an extremely high rate tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

 

Nikola Jokic (at LAL, $5,900)

Jokic hasn’t been playing many minutes recently, but he has been playing extremely well in the minutes he is given. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 12.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.3 blocks in only 24.6 minutes per game. It’s surprising he isn’t playing more minutes, as he’s only averaging 2.7 fouls per game over that span, but every now and then the Nuggets give him 30+ minutes in a game. He gets a great matchup against the Lakers, who have struggled against the center, and Jokic makes a great GPP option.
