Today's top DraftKings daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for 12/10/17 by Justin Bales. Expert NBA DFS advice and player value sleepers for DraftKings.

There are six games on this slate, but DraftKings has broken it down into two three game slates. Ridiculous, right? Anyway, this article will be featuring players from both slates so you have the ability to construct lineups for whichever slate appeals to you more.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/10/17. I play both cash and GPP, so I will be looking for both players who have consistency, along with value plays that have upside from a favorable match up, or other factors.

If you have any questions or comments, let me know @BalesSJustin on Twitter. Let's get to it.

DFS Guards to Consider

Victor Oladipo - PG/SG, vs DEN ($9,000)

Oladipo has taken over the Pacers team in the midst of a breakout campaign. He has been on fire recently, averaging 26.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.4 blocks, and 2.6 steals per game over the last 10 days. He is locked into big minutes, and he will be playing in one of the faster paced games on the slate. Oladipo has a fairly safe floor to go along with elite upside for his price tag. It's tough to avoid him today.

J.J. Barea - PG/SG, at MIN ($5,200)

Barea saw a small uptick in minutes in his last fight. He saw that uptick because of the recent injury to Dennis Smith Jr. Smith will be out again tonight, meaning Barea could play upwards of 30 minutes again tonight. He is a player that comes with a high usage rating to go along with a 1.13 FP/Min rate this season. Barea gets a matchup against the Wolves, who have struggled against guards this season. He makes a great salary relief option until his price tag increases.

DFS Forwards to Consider

Will Barton - SG/SF, at IND ($7,200)

Barton has been locked into big minutes for the Nuggets recently, playing at least 40 minutes in two of his last three games. Over the last 10 days, he's averaging 19.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 block, and 1.5 steals per game. He has flashed great versatility, but his greatest strength is scoring. He gets a great matchup against the fast paced Indiana Pacers team in what should be a high scoring games. Barton is a high upside option today.

DeAndre Bembry - SG/SF, at NYK ($3,700)

Bembry has finally found his footing in the NBA, scoring at least 20 fantasy points in each of his last three games. He has also seen at least 20 minutes in each of those games. He's a player that can contribute in multiple categories, and he gets a matchup against the New York Knicks, who have struggled at times this season. Bembry is expected to play around 25 minutes tonight, making him a great option for an extremely low price tag.

DFS Centers to Consider

Andre Drummond - C, vs BOS ($9,100)

Drummond has been a walking double double this season, averaging 14.4 points, 15.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 1.6 steals per game. He gets an elite matchup against the Boston Celtics, who he recently posted a 26/22/6/0/4 line against. He has posted two games with 20 points and 20 rebounds in his last seven games. The Celtics do not have anyone that can contend with Drummond in the paint, making him a must start on the small slate.
