DFS Guards to Consider

Spencer Dinwiddie - PG, @ MEM ($7,900 FD, $7,000 DK)

Who would have ever imagined that Spencer Dinwiddie would be one of the most expensive options but that appears to be the case on Sunday. Gone are the days when he was considered a value play because now you are going to have to spend some cash to acquire his services. He has had his bouts of inconsistent play this season and the matchup will be tough but if you are playing solely based off the highest-scoring game of the day, he is a solid option.

Goran Dragic - PG, @ CHI ($7,500 FD, $7,300 DK)

Goran Dragic has turned it on as of late, averaging 23 points, 56 percent from behind the three-point line and 48 percent from the field over the past two games. The matchup is favorable against a Bulls team that has struggled defending the one this season. However, keep in mind that this may be the lowest-scoring matchup of the day on Sunday.

Mario Chalmers - PG, vs. BKN ($6,900 FD, $6,000 DK)

With Mike Conley out for the foreseeable future with an achilles issue, Mario Chalmers has been rolling with the starting unit in Memphis. The Nets are allowing a league-worst 46 percent field goal percentage to opposing point guards this season. Chalmers is relatively inexpensive and should see plenty of playing time on a team that is limited in options off the bench.

Andrew Wiggins - SG, vs. PHO ($6,800 FD, $6,500 DK)

Andrew Wiggins has a nice matchup against a Suns team that is giving up 32 points, and nearly three steals this season to opposing off guards, good for worst in the league. They are also allowing opposing two guards to shoot 47 percent from the field, good for second-worst in the league.

Other notable DFS Guards to Consider: Tyreke Evans, Wayne Ellington, Tyus Jones (if Jeff Teague is out)

 

DFS Forwards to Consider

Jimmy Butler - SF, vs. PHO ($9,000 FD, $7,500 DK)

Jimmy Butler is finally back to playing like the Jimmy Butler of old. He is scoring a tad bit more in November than he did in October and more notably, he is shooting 8 percent better from behind the arc than he did a month ago. Regardless, he will be going against a Phoenix team that hasn't done anything right this season and will likely get their teeth kicked in by the Timberwolves on Sunday.

Dillon Brooks - SF, vs. BKN ($4,900 FD, $4,100 DK)

Dillion Brooks? Why not? He's playing on a team where he will see plenty of minutes in what should be the highest-scoring game of the day, and he's available at a lower-price. He's a guy capable of hitting the five times value mark on Sunday.

Josh Jackson - SF, @ MIN ($4,000 FD, $3,700 DK)

Another guy capable of exceeding his value is Josh Jackson and could see his production increase in Devin Booker can't go as a result on a toe injury.

Other notable DFS Forwards to Consider: Allen CrabbeMarquese Chriss, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson

 

DFS Centers to Consider

Karl-Anthony Towns - C, vs. PHO ($9,800 FD, $8,900 DK)

Karl-Anthony Towns is averaging 17 points, 11 boards and shooting 50 percent from the field over the past five contests. Things will probably get ugly in this one and despite his high-price, he is a guy who should have a home in everyone's lineup on Sunday.

Marc Gasol - C, vs. BKN ($9,200 FD, $8,500 DK)

With Mike Conley out of the mix, Marc Gasol is the the man in Memphis. If you aren't able to pay up for Karl-Anthony Towns or just don't want to, you can't go wrong with a guy who is averaging 19 points, 10 boards and two blocks over his last five outings.
