Daily Fantasy NBA Lineup Picks for FanDuel (12/10/16) - DFS Basketball Advice

There are 10 games on the slate for Saturday and it showcases many of the leagues most exploitable defenses. Not only will tomorrow feature favorable matchups but there is plenty of value that should allow you to stack your lineup full of players that have potential to exceed their projections and put you in that sweet, comforting, FanDuel green shade that was made for winners.

These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 12/10/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on FanDuel. I think it is more important to highlight value plays so I try to include my most confident value picks. I advise the players in my lineup so if it all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you. Let' get rolling.

Editor's Note: New users that sign up on FantasyAces, make a $20 deposit, and enter any game will receive BOTH our full season NBA and NFL Premium Passes for free, a $119.99 value. Just email [email protected] with your new FantasyAces username - and boom, that's it! We will email you with your Premium Passes.

 

FanDuel DFS Guards

Kemba Walker - PG, @ CLE ($8,000)

The Cavaliers have been giving up a lot of points to opposing guards recently and Kemba Walker should help support that statement Saturday. Walker started off the season hot and has since cooled but is still a high quality guard with the potential to get you 40+ FPS any night. His ability to drive easily combined with his vision and across the board contributions makes him valuable target, especially tonight. Expect him to carry the Hornets with Nic Batum in this game.

Damian Lillard - PG, @ IND ($9,500) 

Im starting off this post very hypocritically. Start off talking about value and advise two superstar guards with insane prices. Well, Lillard against Teague is a matchup I will take every day and although his price is high, I still think Lillard is a must-start. His scoring explosions are hard to pass up especially when the Portland backcourt has a great matchup against the Pacers. He should be one of the top scoring guards Saturday.

Also Consider: Patty Mills - PG, vs BKN ($4,300)

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Michael Beasley - SF, @ WAS ($3,600)

This is where the amazing value comes in to save the day. I know Beasley had one of his better games recently against the Hawks but I think much of that is thanks to the horrendous Atlanta defense lately. With Beasley balling out, his confidence on the court helps make his price almost too good to be true. If you have watched Beasley before, you know that when he is feeling it, there are few that can stop him. The Milwaukee backcourt is lacking and Beasley is emerging as one of the top scorers off the bench. That shouldn't change against the Wizards and he should carry that momentum from Friday into Saturday night's game.

Jimmy Butler - SF, vs MIA ($8,600)

The Heat have given up a lot of points to forwards recently and Jimmy Butler has been one of the best scoring forwards this season. With a team that clearly supports Butler as the leader, he is able to score on a whim, get plenty of usage while being a fantasy gem. Against a weak Miami front court, Butler should go off without question and with a lower price, he is an absolute must-start.

Also Consider:  Taj Gibson - PF, vs MIA ($5,600)

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Myles Turner  - C, @ POR ($7,900)

Once again, the Portland front court is featured in the DFS Centers to target section of one of my articles. No surprise here. Turner has dramatically simmered off from his blazing start but is beginning to trend upwards as of late. Against Mason Plumlee, Turner should be able to dominate down low and secure plenty of rebounds giving him a nice double-double in your lineup. His price is very friendly and his potential is always high with his versatility, athleticism, and durability.

Also Consider: Marc Gasol - C, vs GSW ($8,400)
