DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (11/27/16): NBA DFS Advice

We are set for another fairly small slate, which isn't surprising for a Sunday. If you aren't doing well in football, feel free to jump into the six game NBA slate tonight!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/27/16. 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, feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @BalesSJustin

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.

 

DraftKings DFS Guards

James Harden – PG/SG, @POR ($11,500) 

Harden has been an elite player this season, as he’s averaging 28.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 12.4 assists, and 1.2 steals per game. He’s a triple double threat on any given slate, but he’s also an elite scorer. He gets a great matchup against the Blazers, who love pushing the pace in games. Harden is a fairly consistent option, and he’s a great player in all leagues tonight.

Jeff Teague – PG, vs LAC ($6,900)

Teague has been on absolute fire over the last 10 days. He’s averaging 17.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1.0 block, and 3.0 steals in 32.6 minutes per game. He has been a huge part of the Pacers offense with Paul George out, and that will continue tonight. He gets a decent matchup against the Clippers, who have been an average defense against the point guard this season. Teague has tremendous upside, and he’s an elite tournament option on this slate.

Patrick Beverley – PG, @POR ($4,400)

Beverley recently returned from injury, and he has seen an uptick in minutes in his last two games. He scored 29.25 and 31.0 fantasy points in 31 and 35 minutes respectively. He should continue to play big minutes, and his price tag is going to increase soon. He gets a good matchup against a fast paced Portland team, and Beverley is one of the best value plays on this slate.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Blake Griffin – PF, @IND ($8,400)

Griffin has struggled a bit in each of his last two games, but he looked great before that. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 23.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.3 steals in 35.2 minutes per game. He gets a great matchup against the Pacers, who have been pushing the pace this season, and have been one of the worst teams in the NBA against the power forward. This is a fairly small slate, and Griffin can be used in all leagues tonight.

Jabari Parker – SF/PF, @ORL ($6,300)

Parker has had his ups and downs this season, but it’s difficult to find someone with his upside for his price tag. He has scored 35 or more fantasy points in six of his last 10 games, but he has also scored as low as 18.5 fantasy points. He gets a decent matchup against the Magic, who have struggled defensively at times this season. Parker is far from a safe player, but he’s an elite tournament option tonight.

Dirk Nowitzki – PF, vs NO ($5,100)

Nowitzki recently returned from injury. He played 20 minutes in his first game back, but his minutes were increased to 27 in a blowout against the Cavs. He’ll likely see around 30 minutes tonight, and he has more than enough upside to hit value in that amount of time. He’s averaging just under one fantasy point per minute this season, and he gets a matchup against a fast paced Pelicans team. Nowitzki isn’t healthy enough to be used in cash games, but he’s a solid tournament option.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Anthony Davis – PF/C, @DAL ($11,300)

Davis has been on fire recently, as he has scored 60 or more fantasy points in four of his last five games. He also dominated the Hawks, but he only played 19 minutes because of an injury, which hurt his fantasy production. He’s playing around 40 minutes per game, and he gets a decent matchup against the Mavs. Davis is another elite option that can safely be used in all leagues.

Mason Plumlee – C, vs HOU ($5,600)

Plumlee has been surprisingly consistent recently, but he also has elite upside. He has scored at least 25 fantasy points in nine consecutive games, and his ceiling is around 45 fantasy points. He’s still more than reasonably priced, and he gets a decent matchup against the Rockets tonight. Plumlee has sneaky triple double potential, and he can be used in all leagues.
