After a weekend that was filled with value plays, things will calm down for the most part on a Monday night that features nine games. Of course, there are a few injuries to monitor as Larry Nance, Mitchell Robinson, Malcolm Brogdon, Jeremy Lamb, T.J. McConnell, Damontas Sabonis, Kyrie Irving, Zach LaVine, Clint Capela, Danuel House, Andre Wiggins, Kawhi Leonard, and Landry Shamet are all listed on the report in some shape or form. Keep an eye on these guys throughout the day, as plenty of value opportunities exist. From a Vegas standpoint, there are plenty of games projected to have favorable combined scores, with Cleveland and New York topping the list as the only game you may want to consider fading.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/18/19. 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.

FanDuel DFS Guards
James Harden - SG, vs. POR ($12,500)
Even with Russell Westbrook in town, Harden continues to manhandle opposing defenses. The potential MVP is sporting a ridiculous usage percentage of 40.3 percent this season and is also averaging nearly 40 points per game on 10-for-25 shooting. Though his shooting efficiency is less than desirable, he makes up for it by getting to the charity stripe consistently. Harden should be in everyone's lineup on Monday night, so make sure you put some cash aside because you're going to need it.
Kemba Walker - PG, @ PHO ($9,100)
Walker struggled shooting during his previous outing against the Kings but still managed to finish with 30.7 fantasy points after hitting at least 38.5 in each of his previous four games going into that one. Gordon Hayward remains out with a broken hand, so look for the veteran to continue carrying the load for the Celtics moving ahead.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
LaMarcus Aldridge - PF, @ DAL ($8,000)
Aldridge has played well all season, and though the Spurs have continued to struggle to some degree, he can't take much of the blame. He put up 30 and 13 against the Trail Blazers on Saturday, and for only $8,000, there is a tremendous upside there considering the price.
Jaylen Brown - SF, @ PHO ($7,800)
Brown has stepped up to the plate as of late and logged at least 35 fantasy points in each of the last four games heading into Sunday's loss to the Kings. While it was an overall poor showing from his entire team in general, he (and the rest of the Celtics) will likely get it together against the Suns.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Myles Turner - C, @ BKN ($6,900)
If you are looking to be a contrarian on Monday night, this may not be the best place to do it. After missing eight games with a sprained ankle, Turner returned against the Milwaukee Bucks and picked up right where he left off. The veteran was impressive, finishing with 16 points, 11 boards, and four blocks, and though the Nets have Jarrett Allen and DeAndre Jordan in the middle, they continue to struggle against opposing big men who can shoot from distance. Look for Turner to get nasty in Brooklyn, especially if Brogdon, Lamb, or Sabonis (or any combination) is out of the lineup.
