Tom Vecchio's top daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for 11/22/17. Expert NBA DFS advice, sleepers & player recommendations for FanDuel and DraftKings.

We have a MASSIVE 14 game slate tonight, which means nearly every player in the league is available. There are a number of injuries going around, so we will have to find the value where we can, and going stars and scrubs is certainly a viable roster option.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/22/17. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on DraftKings.

If you have any questions or comments, let me know @DFS_Tom on Twitter.

DFS Guards to Consider

Eric Bledsoe - PG, MIL @ PHO (DK - $6,500, FD - $6,400)

Bledsoe is up against his former team tonight, and we are looking a nice revenge narrative. He wanted out of Phoenix at the start of the year, and he got his wish. This is a good spot for him not only because of the narrative, but also helps that the Suns are one of the worst defensive teams in the league, they are giving up 53 fantasy points per game to points guards. He has 29 or more fantasy points in three of his last four games, and has a usage rate sitting at 26.6%. We all know the Greek Freak is the top option for the Bucks, but we could see Bledsoe take an extra shot or shot given the revenge factor. Bledsoe is averaging 0.98 fantasy points per minute with the Bucks, so we know the production will be there.

C.J. McCollum - SG, POR @ PHI (DK - $7,300, FD - $7,000)

McCollum has a fantastic match up in front of him tonight, as he is playing the 76ers, who are giving up 44 fantasy points per game to shooting guards. McCollum has scored 30 or more fantasy points in four straight games, and has a 26.6% usage rate. When he isn't talking smack and blowing kisses on the court, the former Mountain Hawk is averaging 0.96 fantasy points per minute. He makes a great cash game play tonight, since he isn't too expensive, and the match up is just so favorable.

DFS Forwards to Consider

Kyle Anderson - SF, SA @ NO (DK - $4,600, FD - $5,200)

Anderson is up against the Pelicans tonight, who are giving up 44 fantasy points per game to small forwards, which is third worst in the league. He has scored 26 or more fantasy points in four of his last five games, and offers a nice bit of salary relief on this full slate. He could be one of the chalky cash game options tonight, since the match up is there for him, and he is showing the consistency you want from a role player.

Kenneth Faried - PF, DEN @ HOU (DK - $3,400, FD - $3,300)

With Paul Millsap, going out with for a few months due to an injury, we may see Faried become a viable fantasy option. He got the start on Monday night, and should be in place to get it tonight. He had 20 fantasy points in 19 minutes on Monday, and averages 0.89 fantasy points per minute with Millsap off the court. So much salary relief here, and if we find out he will be in the starting lineup again, he will look like an auto lock tonight.

DFS Centers to Consider

Clint Capela - C, HOU vs DEN (DK - $6,800, FD - $7,500)

Capela is turning into a double-double machine this year, and has five of which, in his last six games. He has a usage rate at only 12%, but is averaging 1.29 fantasy points per minute. He is super efficient with his time, and any chance he has with the ball, he does something positive. May not be the best match up for him against Denver, but always sees a good amount of run off production due to Harden and Paul being on the same team. Good for cash games, since we know the consistency will be there.

Also consider: Marc Gasol - C, MEM vs DAL (DK - $8,300, FD - $8,300)
