DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/27/18): NBA DFS Lineups

There's a decent three game slate in a few elimination games tonight. That's when the best players on the court generally come out, which is what we'll be looking at.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 4/27/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on DraftKings.

You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for sites like FanDuel, and other sports too. Give me a follow on Twitter and say hello @BalesSJustin. Good luck!

DraftKings DFS Guards

John Wall - PG, vs TOR ($10,400)

Wall has been playing at an elite level in the playoffs, averaging 58.4 fantasy points per game through five games. Overall, he is averaging 26.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 12.2 assists, 1.4 blocks, and 2.4 steals in 38.8 minutes per game. He'll be locked into big minutes once again tonight, and there's no reason to believe he's going to slow down tonight. He can be used in all leagues.

Ricky Rubio - PG, vs OKC ($7,400)

Rubio has flashed triple double potential throughout his series, and he's averaging 17.8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 8.5 assists, and 1.0 steal in 35.4 minutes per game over his last four games. He has also been playing well throughout the entire series, and he's locked into big minutes. Rubio's price tag continues to be a bit too low, making him an excellent on this slate.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

LeBron James - SF/PF, at IND ($12,200)

There's no real reason to avoid James at this point. He's averaging 34.8 points, 11.4 rebounds, 8.0 assists, 1.0 block, and 1.0 steal (66.1 fantasy points) in 42.8 minutes per game. He's a triple double threat that has essentially been the entire Cavs team. The Pacers have no answer for him, and James has scored 60+ fantasy points in every game this series. He's an elite option.

Kyle Korver - SG/SF, at IND ($4,600)

Korver was recently added to the starting lineup, and he has looked outstanding in his last two games. In those games, he is averaging 29.9 fantasy points per game. He's not an elite option, but he is shooting nearly double digit threes on a nightly basis. DraftKings gives a bump for threes, adding to Korver's value.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Marcin Gortat - C, vs TOR ($4,700)

Gortat has looked awful for the most part this series, but he was able to score 31 fantasy points in 34 minutes in his last game. It seems as if the Wizards are the team that will be able to dictate how this game will be played, and if they want to use Gortat, both teams will likely go bigger. It's nearly impossible to know how they want to play this game, though. If Gortat plays big minutes, he's a solid option. He comes with terrible risk, as well.
