FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/4/19): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Austyn Varney highlights the top FanDuel NBA DFS lineup picks for 12/4/19, and a couple of sleepers to consider while building daily rosters.

Welcome to NBA Wednesday night. We have ten games on the slate tonight, and more than enough superstars to pay up for. We'll have to pick the right stars and scrubs as there will be some huge performances tonight. Let's dive right in!

FanDuel DFS Guards

Luka Doncic - PG, DAL vs. MIN ($12,500)

Doncic just keeps impressing and last night was another insanely awesome effort. He played just 28 minutes in the blowout, but he still posted 58 fantasy points on 33 points, 18 rebounds, and five assists. He’s now averaging close to two fantasy points per minute and gets another great match-up tonight. He played just 28 minutes last night, so should be good to go for his usual 35 if this game stays close. The T-Wolves play fast and Wiggins won’t have any shot of covering him. If you can fit Doncic, he’s the best play on the slate and has 70- fantasy point upside.

Zach LaVine - SG, CHI vs. MEM ($8,500)

I love this match-up for Zach LaVine. The Grizzlies play fast and they don’t have anyone to contest the rim. They’ve given up the sixth-most points in the paint and the ninth most open threes. LaVine has been playing great of late and he has as much upside as any shooting guard on this slate. He’s not expensive on FanDuel and you can fit him with a couple of other studs.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Bojan Bogdanovic - SF, UTA vs. LAL ($6,000)

Small forward isn’t a position I love on this slate. Bogdanovic is too cheap on FanDuel and he’s going to be back over 25 fantasy points against the Lakers. They play good defense, but that actually isn’t a bad thing for Bogdanovic. It’ll force Mitchell to kick the ball out and Bogdanovic can shoot over anyone. Expect another 30+ minutes and 25 fantasy points here. If you’re wanting to pay up at small forward, I prefer LeBron to Giannis for the discount. With that said, Giannis is one of the best tournament plays on the slate as there isn’t much attention on him.

Jabari Parker - PF, ATL vs. BKN ($7,000)

Parker has been bad the last couple games and it’s going to keep the bulk of people off of him. I like him to bounce back against the Nets, who play fast and don’t cover the paint. Parker excels in the open floor and has a 29% usage with Collins off the floor. His price has come down on FanDuel and you can play him in all formats. The match-up and ownership are too good for me to pass up in any format.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Rudy Gobert - C, UTA vs. LAL ($7,800)

Gobert is finally playing how we expected and he draws a match-up against a Lakers team he should dominate. JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard can pick on some big men, but not Rudy Gobert. He’s one of the two best defensive centers in basketball and is coming off a 53 fantasy point performance against Embiid and the Sixers. Gobert is too cheap on FanDuel and he’s my favorite center in both cash games and tournaments.
