FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (10/30/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Happy Tuesday, I hope everyone is doing well. The slate is packed, and there are plenty of games that are anticipated to be high-scoring and tight to help make things interesting. With Kevin Love, James Harden, Steven Adams, and Markieff Morris either not playing, or in danger of missing time, there are plenty of opportunities to fill some holes with some solid value plays.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 10/30/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel.

You can also check out today's DraftKings lineup picks and our Premium DFS Cheat Sheet. And don't forget to check out our brand new NBA DFS Matchup Ratings tool with daily player projections. Make sure you don't set your lineups too early and also be sure to check player statuses and availability prior to opening tip. Give me a follow on Twitter @Den_Clausen and say hello. Good luck.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook - PG, vs. LAC ($12,000)

Russ hasn't been messing around after missing some time while recovering from knee surgery. Since his return, Westbrook is averaging 47 fantasy points by way over 22 points, 12 rebounds, and seven assists. While he is averaging only a little over 30 minutes, he still makes use of the time he is allotted on the floor.

Rodney Hood - SG, vs. ATL ($5,700)

The Cavs are a mess, and things got worse upon learning the news that Kevin Love would miss some time with a toe injury. While the specifics of the injury are a quasi-mystery at the moment, we know that he won't be in the lineup on Tuesday night. In his stead, expect Hood to be the focal point of the offense, just like he was against Indiana a few nights ago.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Carmelo Anthony - SF, vs. POR ($6,700)

As the Rockets continue to deal with a plethora of injuries, Melo' has stepped up in classic fashion where he is taking a ton of shots per game. Without Harden in the lineup, Anthony will continue to have the green light to keep shooting so if you are looking for volume and minutes, he is your guy.

Larry Nance Jr. - PF, vs. ATL ($6,600)

Though Sam Dekker has been starting, who knows what kind of plans that Larry Drew has up his sleeve. One thing we do know is that Nance has been on a roll as of late and with the team looking to get their young guys on the floor, he could see a big uptick in production against the Hawks.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Clint Capela - C, vs. POR ($8,200)

We have already established that the Rockets are a hurting unit at the moment, but they are especially hurting in the middle. Luckily, Capela has been able to shoulder the load and has been up to the task of taking on a good amount of minutes. Look for him to stay active and likely hit a double-double convincingly on Tuesday night.
