We have a five game main slate tonight, with some interesting value plays, given the fact there are a number of injuries going around. The Cavs will be at home trying to extend their winning streak, and we could see a battle of two centers in the Detroit v Philadelphia game.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/2/17. The DFS lineup picks for today will include two seemingly mispriced guards, two seemingly mispriced forwards, one seemingly mispriced center.

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

DraftKings DFS Guards

Tyreke Evans - SG, MEM @ CLE (DK - $6,900)

Evans has a 30% usage rate right now, and offers up great, consistent production. He is averaging 1.17 fantasy points per minute, and has a favorable match up against the Cavs, who are giving up 44 points per game to shooting guards. This is a pace up spot for the Grizzles, and the time you want to roster their players. He has 30 or more DraftKings points, in four of his last five games, a mark which he should be able to hit tonight. Good for all formats, cash because of the consistency, and GPP because of the favorable match up.

Eric Bledsoe - PG, MIL vs SAC (DK - $7,100)

Bledsoe is up against the Kings, who are giving up 46 DraftKings points per game to point guards. This puts him in a very favorable spot, and you should look to target him tonight, as he is a good mid range option at point guard. He has a 29% usage rate, which is second highest on the team, and averaging 1.11 fantasy points per minute. He has 35 or more DraftKings points in five straight games, and has excelled since joining the Bucks.

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Tobias Harris - SF, DET @ PHI (DK - $6,400)

Harris has 28 or more DratKings points in three straight games, and will now be playing in a pace up spot against the 76ers, who are giving up 43 DraftKings points per game to small forwards. He has a 24% usage rate and is averaging 0.94 fantasy points per minute. He also plays well into the 30 minutes a game, so no need to worry about his playing time. He is more of a cash game play, since the pure scoring upside isn't full there for him.

DeMarcus Cousins - PF, NO @ POR (DK - $10,400)

It was announced that Anthony Davis is unlikely to play in this game, so we should see plenty of action going the way of Boogie. When Davis is off the court, Cousins, has a 38% usage rate, and averaging 1.61 fantasy points per minute. Those are some insane numbers, and you want to do anything you can to get him into your lineup. He is averaging 55 DraftKings points per game, and may very likely go over that given his extra touches on the ball. Good for all formats if you have the salary for him.

DraftKings DFS Centers

Mason Plumlee - C, DEN vs LAL (DK - $3,800)

The Nuggets announced the other day that Nikola Jokic, had an MRI, and will miss several games. They are also without Paul Millsap, so they are very thin with big men. This should leave Plumlee with the start, and he offers a ton of salary relief, which is always important, especially on a smaller slate with fewer options. He has a 17% usage rate, and averaging 0.94 fantasy points per minute, when both of those players are off the court. We know he isn't the most consistent player, but the minutes should be there for him tonight.
