FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (11/26/16): NBA DFS Advice

Daily fantasy basketball lineups picks for FanDuel on 11/26/16 by Jake Finnen. The top NBA DFS rosters advice on FanDuel value picks and DFS sleepers.

After a full slate of games yesterday, we have the task of projecting who can perform the best in the finale of a back to back set. That being said, we have five games on Saturday which means the pickings will be slimmer than usual. Never a problem here at RotoBaller, however, and with less options across the board you need to make sure you plug in the right players into your lineup. I am usually in the chat room so feel free to stop by and ask a few questions.

These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/26/16. I try to only advise players I believe will outperform expectations and the players I advise are players in my lineup so if it all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you. Let's get rolling...

FanDuel DFS Guards

Brandon Jennings - PG, @ CHA ($4,200) 

He did not get to shoot the ball much in their first outing, but the shots he did manage to take were open. Charlotte was leaving some shooters open and Brandon Jennings was only able to knock down one three pointer. I don't expect the same thing to happen two games in a row as Jennings actually has a decent jump shot. With Porzingis getting a fresh start and hopefully not falling into foul trouble again, expect the same spacing you saw from them in the second half throughout the game. Jennings was able to generate the offense but by the time he hit a shot, the Knicks were already in a shootout near the end of the game and decided to give Rose the point position. Look for Jennings to get hot as soon as he gets in.

Nicolas Batum - SG, vs NYK ($6,700)

Building off what you just read about Brandon Jennings, Nic Batum was able to get his shots off at will. He was working in the low post. Although he just missed a triple-double, the Hornets may need a better scoring effort from him when they face the Knicks again tomorrow. You may be asking, won't he/they be tired? Well, yes...BUT seeing how both teams played each other, expect the Hornets to come out with something to prove and firing. Oh yeah, and these are NBA athletes, they can play 48 minutes two days in a row if they need to. Batum started heating up and finding his shot near the end of the game and I expect it to carry over.

Dion Waiters - PG, vs MIA ($5,100)

I am not a fan of picking teams against the Grizzlies due to their heavy focus on defense and slow pace but Dion Waiters had a decent outing that should be improved upon in the second meeting with the Grizzlies. The Memphis front court is a defensive nightmare but the guard depth outside of Mike Conley and Tony Allen is where I am trying to target. Assuming the Grizzlies try to focus on stopping Whiteside...again, and containing Tyler Johnson, I expect Dion Waiters to have a solid fantasy game while sliding under the radar.

Also Consider: Derrick Rose - PG, @ CHA ($6,100)

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Marcus Morris - SF, @ OKC ($4,900)

The jumpshots were falling for the Pistons. Let me say this now, the Pistons are primarily a jump shooting team which means they will play the hot hand and rely on individual scoring and open shots. That being said, if the shots aren't falling, they just aren't. The problem with picking Pistons players is the potential that any player on Detroit can kill a lineup. Tobias Harris leaves your lineup with 5.25, or KCP...just ANYWHERE in your lineup can make or break your lineup. That being said, as the leading scorer yesterday, I am going to ride Marcus Morris against the Thunder while his price is almost too good to pass up. Hope the victory over the Clippers is a sign of things to come for the Pistons, but as for now I am going to be very, very, picky with Detroit players when it comes to DFS.

Kristaps Porzingis - PF, @ CHA ($7,200)

The Charlotte Hornets realized late in the game that Saturday's rematch against the Knicks may be a bit tougher than first thought. Porzingis was in foul trouble early with only 17 minutes going into the fourth quarter. Once he got going, they were not stopping him. I cannot wait for this game and as long as he stays out of foul trouble, Zingi should be in for another great game. The matchup with Frank Kaminsky was perfect for Porzingis and he got to work the floor, take open shots, and drive successfully late in the game. With more minutes should come more production.

Also Consider: Otto Porter - SF, vs SA ($5,900)

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Andre Drummond - C, @ OKC ($8,400)

As one of the better fantasy options when it comes to Centers, Andre Drummond actually needs a solid matchup to thrive. I think going against Steven Adams will be a great matchup where Drummond will be fighting for rebounds the whole game and end up successful. Adams is a very athletic big but Drummond has power on his side. Its hard to move someone of his stature and Adams struggles against dominant big men. With his price slightly dropping, its time to capitalize on this deal.

Also Consider: Joffrey Lauvergne - C, vs HOU ($3,500)

The Mad King hits threes...
