DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/10/18): NBA DFS Lineups

The top daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on March 10, 2018. Tom Vecchio's NBA DFS analysis and sleepers for building optimal DFS rosters.

We have a seven game NBA slate to get us through this hump day and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same lineup.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/10/18.

These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options, to lower-priced players and value picks on DraftKings. Feel free to stop by the Hoops Chat Room or on Twitter @DFS_Tom, let's get rolling.

DraftKings DFS Guards

Milos Teodosic - PG, LAC vs ORL (DK - $5,000)

Teodosic and the Clippers are up against the Magic, who are one of the worst teams in the league and you should be stacking against them anytime they are on the slate The Magic are giving up 49 DraftKings points per game to point guards, which is second worst in the league. Teodosic has scored 20 or more DK points in five straight games, and makes a good cash game option for tonight. He doesn't have a ton of pure scoring upside, which can limit his tournament value.

Dwayne Wade - SG, MIA vs WAS (DK - $5,300)

Wade has exceeded one fantasy point per minute production in three straight games, and makes an interesting tournament option on this small slate. We all know he isn't the same player he once was, but for his price, he has some nice upside. He is up against the Wizards, who are giving up 39 DraftKings points per game to shooting guards. Wade has a usage rate sitting at 32% when he is on the court with this current roster, which is higher than normal for a player at his price.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Harrison Barnes - SF, DAL vs MEM (DK - $6,700)

Barnes is one of the more consistent options when it comes to NBA DFS, but generally doesn't get a whole lot of love since he plays for a bad team, and doesn't have a big upside. He has scored 30 or more DraftKings points in three of his last four games, and is playing over 30 minutes per game, nearly every time out. This game only has an over-under sitting at 205, but Barnes still has plenty of chance to reach value, since he can chip in with the other stat categories. Solid cash game option for tonight, and will likely be somewhat popular on this small slate.

LaMarcus Aldridge - PF, SA @ OKC (DK - $8,400)

Aldridge has a usage rate sitting at 31%, along with average 1.17 fantasy points per minute. We know he is the go to guy on offense for the Spurs, and tonight will be no different. He is coming of a massive 50 point game against the Warriors, and hopefully this is a sign of things to come. He is up against the Thunder tonight, who he has played one time this season, where he played 35 minutes, and put up 38 fantasy points. Over one fantasy point per minute is what we are expecting from him, and what we should be getting tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

DeAndre Jordan - C, LAC vs ORL (DK - $7,800)

Jordan has 44 or more DraftKings points in three of his last four games, and is now up against the Magic, who are giving up 52 DraftKings points per game to centers, putting him in a great spot. Jordan is a double-double machine, and has big time tournament upside because of all the rebounds he can bring in. Really like him in this spot, and with the Clippers sitting right at the edge of the playoffs, every game is important for them. Being up against the Magic, they should come away with the win, meaning a full game and time for Jordan.
