NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 4/1/16

 

Happy April Fool's Day.

Let's have a little fun with this one.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 4/1/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on FanDuel.

FanDuel DFS Guards

John Wall (at PHO, $9,600)

John Wall is simply the worst guard option in the league right now. He is playing ridiculously bad, and it is tough to use him in any format. Tonight, he gets a horrible matchup against the Phoenix Suns, who are one of the best defensive teams in the league, especially against opposing point guards. It would be very surprising to see Wall produce more than about 20 fantasy points tonight. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments... if you want to lose.

Reggie Jackson (vs DAL, $5,900)

Reggie Jackson barely has any upside at all, and tonight, he has to face off against the Dallas Mavericks, who are one of the best defensive teams in the league. There is no way the Detroit Pistons keep this game even relatively close. Who cares that Jackson has been playing around 30 minutes per game? He has been terrible during those minutes. Oh, wow. He posted over 30 fantasy points once in his last three games. Does he want a cookie? Just avoid him.

Shane Larkin (at NYK, $3,900)

Shane Larkin couldn't even get any cheaper than he already is, and there is a great reason for that. He's a horrible basketball player. In his last game, which was against the Cleveland Cavaliers, he posted over 30 fantasy points in 32 minutes of action, but that was a huge fluke. The Brooklyn Nets are likely going to bench him tonight because Tony Brown can't handle any more ridiculous shots or turn overs. The Knicks are going to lock Larkin down. Forget about using him at all tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Draymond Green (vs BOS, $9,600)

Draymond Green has to be one of the most overrated players in the entire league. I mean, come on. All anyone ever talks about is Green this, Green that. What about Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson? How come they never get any kind of coverage? Wow, Green has over 45 fantasy points in three of his last four games. Real impressive, Green. Too bad the Boston Celtics are one of the best defensive teams in the league, and they intend to shut Green day on every single play. The Warriors' "star" isn't going to score a single point tonight.

Harrison Barnes (vs BOS, $4,600)

Speaking of Warrior's "stars," forget about using Harrison Barnes tonight. He is one of the most overrated players in the league, as well. If ESPN covered Curry and Thompson even half the amount of time that they covered Green and Barnes, their ratings would probably skyrocket. It doesn't make any sense. Barnes has looked horrible in his last two games, posting over 25 fantasy points in both of them. He probably wrote home to his mother about playing over 40 minutes and double-doubling last game. What a loser.

John Henson (vs ORL, $4,400)

Well, John Henson plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, which means that he sucks by association. He does have over 20 minutes per game over his last three, posting 34.5, 36.6, and 28 fantasy points in those games. Ha! Really, Henson? He can't even stay on the court for 30 plus minutes, and he wants to play for someone's fantasy basketball team tonight? Get real! Go back to the bench, sit down, and do whatever it is that Henson does; it sure isn't play basketball.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Kosta Koufos (vs MIA, $3,900)

Kosta Koufos thinks he is just going to jump into the starting role because his fellow teammate, DeMarcus Cousins, got suspended? Think again, Koufos! Cousins has never let a little bit of inappropriate behavior keep him from suiting up. He is going to tough this one out. There is no way the entire NBA and their rules and regulations are going to be handle to keep Cousins from playing in this very important game against the Miami Heat. Sit back and enjoy the show, Koufos. At least you've had a lot of practice sitting back already this season.
