Another Saturday and another solid main slate. FanDuel has decided to leave out the 7PM ET game so lock will be at 8PM ET tonight and will include seven games. There seems to be some great options that include high-end plays and some value options.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/10/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. You can also check out today's DraftKings lineup picks.
Make sure you don't set your lineups too early and also be sure to check player statuses and availability prior to opening tip. Find me in the NBA Chat Room or @cjohnson707 on Twitter.
FanDuel DFS Guards
Quinn Cook - PG, vs BKN ($4,400)
Cook will be starting in place of the injured Steph Curry and should be in store for some big minutes. Big minutes with the elite talent that Golden State has is a recipe for some big fantasy points for Cook. At $4,400, Cook only has to reach 22 Fanduel point to get to 5x and in a game- script like this, that is nearly his floor. He has a near 10x upside. Cook should be extremely high-owned in tournaments but there is still no reason not to play him. He is a near lock in cash games.
Dennis Schroder - SG, at DAL ($7,200)
No secrets here- Schroder remains an excellent play as Russell Westbrook's injury lingers. With Westbrook out, Schroder has seen at least 33 minutes and there is no reason why he shouldn't get there tonight as well. Schroder is a solid point-scorer who has 30 real-life point upside and can also fill the stat sheet with respectable amounts of rebounds and assist. Schroder's price has increased significantly as he has seen increased minutes which doesn't make him an extreme value play but it should keep his ownership at a reasonable level. Getting some leverage on the field with Schroder in big-field tournaments looks to be an excellent option.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Jaren Jackson Jr. - PF, vs PHI ($6,300)
Jackson is trending in the right direction, and fast. In the last two games, he has averaged 32.5 minutes and over 40 Fanduel points. Jackson should see at least 30 minutes tonight and will look to continue his productive ways. Jackson's price has steadily increased over the last three games but it remains at a price where he can certainly well exceed his value and become an excellent tournament play. At $6,300, be a little careful in cash games- there's no need to prioritize him but he is certainly the best PF option in his price range.
Paul George - SF, at DAL ($10,400)
If there's one place to spend up tonight, Paul George seems to be the place to do it. George has been excellent this season- he is filling up all aspects of the stat sheet. George has two 50+ Fanduel point games over the last three games. Scary enough, he shot pretty bad in both of those 50 point games. George should be on the floor for around 35 minutes and has the upside of any player on the slate- it would not be shocking to see George as the top producer of Fanduel points tonight.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Willie Cauley-Stein - C, vs LAL ($7,200)
WCS has been relatively boom or bust this season and due to that, Fanduel has kept his price about the same all season. At $7,200, WCS has the potential of well exceeding his value on any given night. Tonight features a match up against the Lakers which Vegas predicts to be a massive scoring shoot-out. With a 117.5 team total, the Kings are still five-point underdogs. WCS should be in store for near 30 minutes- plenty of time for him to be a fantasy beast. As mentioned before, he is boom or bust but tonight seems as good as any for a boom game. There's really no excellent big-name plays at the top for Center tonight so I love dropping to the mid-tier.
