DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/04/16): NBA DFS Advice

There were huge slates for two straight nights, and now we're going to have to settle for a smaller slate tonight. That's fine, though, right!? Today is football!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/04/16. 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

Jeff Teague – PG, @LAC ($6,800)

Teague has been playing extremely well recently, as he’s averaging 13.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.0 block, and 2.5 steals in 30.1 minutes per game over the last 10 days. He gets a decent matchup against the Clippers, who he dominated in limited minutes earlier this season. He still comes with a fairly low price tag, and Teague can be used in all leagues.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope – SG, vs ORL ($5,600)

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has been on fire recently, but he is a player that flies under the radar a bit. He has scored at least 30 fantasy points in six of his last seven games, including two games with 40 or more fantasy points. He gets a decent matchup against the Magic, who have had an average defense against the shooting guard this season. KCP has been playing more than well enough to be used in all leagues tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Anthony Davis – PF/C, @OKC ($11,200)

Davis is coming off a tough start against the Clippers, but he was on fire before that. He’s a player that can consistently score 60 or more fantasy points because of his ability to score in each of the five categories. He is multi-position eligible, as well. He gets a decent matchup against the Thunder, and the Pelicans are going to need Davis to take over the game if they want to match Russell Westbrook. Davis’s price dropped a bit for this slate because of his recent struggles, and he can be used in all leagues.

Justin Holiday – SG/SF, vs SAC ($3,900)

Holiday’s value will be dependent on Courtney Lee tonight. If Lee plays, Holiday will return to his bench role. If Lee is out, Holiday will likely draw the start, and he could play 30 minutes again tonight. He has tons of upside when given the minutes, and he still comes with a low price tag. He also gets a decent matchup against the Kings, and Holiday will be one of the best players on the slate if Lee is out. Keep an eye on this injury situation.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

DeAndre Jordan – C, vs IND ($6,200)

Jordan has cooled off a bit over his last two games, but he was on fire before that and he has been fairly consistent. He gets a great matchup against the Pacers tonight, and Indiana has struggled against the center this season. Jordan has double double potential, but he isn’t a huge part of the Los Angeles offense. He can also add blocks to his line, which only adds to his upside. Jordan can be used in all leagues because of the small slate.
