DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (4/9/17): NBA DFS Advice

As always, DraftKings has split the Sunday action into an early and late slate. This article will focus on the later slate, which fews a couple more games.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 4/9/17. 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.

 

DraftKings DFS Guards

Devin Booker - PG, vs DAL ($8,000)

Booker has taken over minutes at the point guard position, and it has really benefitted his fantasy outlook. He's averaging 29.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.8 steals per game over the last 10 days. He's locked into big minutes, and he has scored at least 45 fantasy points in five of his last seven games, including a huge 96.5 fantasy point performance against the Celtics. Booker can be used in all leagues tonight.

Garrett Temple - SG/SF, vs HOU ($3,800)

The Kings have been resting players on random nights, so keep an eye out for news on Temple before the games start. He's extremely cheap tonight, though, and he has scored at least 19 fantasy points in eight of his last 10 games. He gets a fast paced matchup against the Rockets tonight, and Temple is an outstanding salary relief option tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Andrew Wiggins - SF, at LAL ($7,200)

Wiggins has been on fire over the last 10 days, as he's averaging 28.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.0 steal per game over the last 10 days. He gets an elite matchup against the Lakers tonight, and Wiggins is averaging 48.5 fantasy points per game against them this season. The Lakers will be pushing the pace in this game, and Wiggins can be used in all leagues.

Henry Ellenson - PF, at MEM ($3,800) 

Ellenson recently saw an increase in minutes, as the Pistons want to see their young kids. He played 26 minutes in their last game, and he scored 15 points with 11 rebounds and one block. He gets a tough matchup against the Grizzlies, but Ellenson is still cheap enough to be used in all leagues, especially on the small slate, in which there is limited value.

DraftKings DFS Centers

Boban Marjanovic - C, at MEM ($4,900)

The Pistons recently stated that they wanted to give Marjanovic more minutes, and he played 27 in his last game. He was able to score 27 points with 12 rebounds and two assists in that game. He has been an elite per minute player the entire season, and he's still too cheap for his low price tag. He does come with a bit of risk, especially in a tough matchup against the Grizzlies, and Marjanovic is best suited for GPPs tonight.
