DraftKings and FanDuel Guards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Devin Booker - PG/SG, PHX vs LAL ($9,300 DK, $9,900 FD)

Since Chris Paul's injury, Booker has taken command on the usage front. He's attempted the most shots on the team in all 6 full games without CP3. Tonight, Booker gets the Lakers' 24th-ranked defense against opposing SGs, and no one on the Lakers roster really profiles as an adequate defensive threat to Booker. Booker posted 30+ points in each of his last two games vs the Lakers, and I think that streak has a good chance to continue tonight.

Dillon Brooks - SG/SF, MEM vs SAC ($7,300 DK, $8,000 FD)

In a slate defined by injuries to big names, the Grizzlies are no exception. Ja Morant and Desmond Bane are both incredible players, and filling their shoes is tough. Brooks did his best to fill those shoes; attempting a career-high 30 shots last game against the Nets, and posting a monstrous 52.75 DK line in the process. Brooks is the Grizzlies' top perimeter threat at the moment, and he's not priced as such.

Shake Milton - PG/SG, PHI vs BKN ($5,300 DK, $5,800 FD)

The Sixers will be the hotspot for DFS players tonight given the opportunity available corresponding to the player pricing. Milton is a lock to play 35+ minutes, assuming the game doesn't turn into a blowout. Milton is 1 of 2 healthy viable ball-handling options for the 76ers, so I'm very willing to take my chances based on the opportunity.

Others to consider: Bones Hyland ($6,700 DK, $6,500 FD), Tyus Jones ($5,900 DK, $5,900 FD)

DraftKings and FanDuel Forwards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Kevin Durant - PF, BKN @ SAC ($11,200 DK, $11,000 FD)

Another Tuesday, another Kevin Durant sighting in top plays. Kyrie Irving has returned from his suspension, but he was underwhelming, and simply put; the Sixers have no one who can guard Durant. With all the savings available throughout the slate, if you're not playing Durant you're going to be in the minority.

Tobias Harris - SF/PF, PHI vs BKN ($7,800 DK, $8,500 FD)

Harris is seeing the rare jump from 4th option to the top dog. Much maligned for his contractual status, this might be a game for Harris to prove he's worth the max contract the Sixers gave him a few years ago.

Michael Porter Jr. - SF, DEN vs DET ($5,800 DK, $6,200 FD)

Porter Jr hasn't exactly been lighting it up lately, but in a home game with no Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, or Aaron Gordon, this has to be the bounce-back game for the Missouri product. MPJ has been much more efficient at home compared to on the road; he's +61 in 4 home games, and -11 over 11 road games. Porter Jr has made a name for himself as a scorer, and the Nuggets will need all hands on deck on Tuesday.

Others to consider: John Konchar ($6,200 DK, $6,300 FD), Danuel House Jr. ($4,300 DK, $4,500 FD)

DraftKings and FanDuel Centers - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Jaren Jackson Jr. - PF/C, SAC vs BKN ($6,400 DK, $8,200 FD)

Last time out, Jackson posted an insane 52 DK points in only 25 minutes. Still making his way back from off-season surgery, JJJ has seen a 25-minute limit in both games he's played so far. I think after a rest day, and given the state of the injury situation, the Grizzles will loosen the restrictions. He has a legit 50-point upside again, and I expect him to be the most-played player on the slate, regardless of format.

Montrezl Harrell - C, PHI vs BKN  ($4,500 DK, $5,300 FD)

The last time Joel Embiid missed a game (11/4 vs the Knicks), Harrell got the spot start and posted 26.25 DK points in 29 minutes. Harrell doesn't offer much besides scoring and some rebounds, but given the lack of offensive talent around him tonight compared to that Knicks game, I think he should be able to clear the 30-point threshold with relative ease and he possesses a huge ceiling.

Others to consider: DeAndre Jordan ($4,500 DK, $5,700 FD)
