FanDuel DFS Guards

DeMar DeRozan - SG, SA vs. HOU ($8,200)

Whether LaMarcus Aldridge plays or not, DeMar DeRozan is in play against the Rockets. If Aldridge is out, DeRozan becomes an amazing play and close to a must in my book. He’s going to be covered by James Harden and Russell Westbrook for most of the night and has a clear advantage over both in the open floor. The Spurs are going to get some extra possessions in this game from the fast-paced Rockets and DeRozan is my favorite SG on the slate.

Markelle Fultz - PG, WAS vs. ORL ($5,900)

You can obviously pay up at point guard. If you can fit Doncic, the match-up is beyond amazing. However, I love the match-up for these Magic and Markelle Fultz has been amazing of late. He put up 35 fantasy points last game and is getting 28-30 minutes on a consistent basis. He’s stuffing the stat sheet every night and I would say is an extremely consistent option in all formats. His price on FanDuel is too low.

Consider - James Harden, Luka Doncic, Brad Beal, Terrence Ross

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Kristaps Porzingis - PF, NO vs. DAL ($8,100)

Most attention will be on Luka Doncic, but I love Porzingis to go for over 40 fantasy points tonight. The New Orleans Pelicans play at a top-five pace and rank 26th against power forwards. Porzingis has been cold for a few games and this is the perfect time for him to go crazy again. I expect his ownership to be under 25% here and he’s my favorite overall play at forward.

Jonathan Isaac - PF, WAS vs. ORL ($8,000)

The sticker shock of Jonathan Isaac being $8k will hopefully keep the masses off of him. This is a guy who’s very capable of putting up 50 fantasy points and the match-up couldn’t be better. The Wizards play at a top-five pace and Isaac flourishes in the open floor. He’s also gotten some more opportunity with Nikola Vucevic out, and has been over 40 fantasy points plenty. I like Isaac to have another huge night and I doubt his ownership will be very high.

Consider - Anthony Davis, Paul George, Trey Lyles

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Hassan Whiteside - C, POR @ LAC ($8,300)

It was quite weird to see Hassan Whiteside block 10 shots after he hasn’t been blocking many this season. He did say he wants to lead the league in blocks, though, and we may be running into another Hassan Whiteside hot streak. The Clippers are susceptible down low and Whiteside has 50-fantasy point upside for way too cheap. I love the match-up and I love the price on FanDuel.
