FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (11/25/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have six games on the main slate on Sunday evening. Keep an eye on Jimmy Butler and Donovan Mitchell, who are both in danger of not being available. Charlotte against Atlanta is your projected highest-scoring game according to Vegas so look for Kemba Walker to be a popular play.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/25/18. 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. 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 and say hello @Den_Clausen. Good luck!

FanDuel DFS Guards

Ben Simmons - PG, @ BKN ($9,900)

If Jimmy Butler is out, expect Simmons to get a nice usage bump on Sunday against the Nets. Having Simmons and Embiid in your lineup against the Nets will be costly, but you can get it done if you can figure out where to cut corners. FanDuel will drop your lowest-scoring player, so if you choose to pair Simmons with Landry Shamet, why not?

Jeremy Lamb - SG, @ ATL ($6,200)

Lamb has hit at least 34 fantasy points in four of his last five games and will continue to get minutes moving forward. Expect him to hit his value, likely surpassing it, against a Hawks team that hasn't done much, if anything, right this season.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Kyle Anderson - SF, vs. NYK ($5,900)

After a quasi-rough start to the season, Anderson is beginning to live up 4-year, $37.2 million deal that he signed this past offseason. He has been getting his minutes, and though he won't blow anyone away on the offensive end, he will make up for it defensively by grabbing a few steals and swatting a few shots per game.

Noah Vonleh - PF, @ MEM ($5,200)

Despite the Knicks playing musical chairs with their lineup for most of the season, Vonleh has remained a consistent member of the team's core unit. He has hit at least 41 fantasy points in each of his last three games and though he may see a slight decrease in production, hitting his value shouldn't be an issue. For only $5,200, I'll gladly take my chances with Vonleh on Sunday.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Joel Embiid - C, @ BKN (11,700)

This one isn't hard to figure out as Embiid will find himself matched up against Brooklyn team that is horrendous underneath the basket, allowing a league-worst 65.17 fantasy points per game to opposing centers this season. He will cost you a pretty penny to acquire his services, but it will be worth it by the time things are all said and done. Figure out where to cut your costs and get him in your lineup.
