Shane McNichol highlights the top FanDuel NBA DFS lineup picks for 2/10/21, and a couple of sleepers to consider while building daily rosters.
Wednesday’s NBA slate is headlined by two enticing nationally televised matchups. At 7:30 p.m. ET, the Hawks and Mavericks will square-off, pitting Luka Doncic and Trae Young against one another after the two were exchanged in a draft night deal. Later in the evening, the new look Suns will get a crack at the suddenly surging Milwaukee Bucks.
The DFS values might start in those games, but they continue well beyond that duo into the depths of Wednesday’s jam-packed schedule. Nine games are dotted across the NBA landscape, with stars and sleepers ready to break out in your lineup.

Fred Vanvleet, SG – TOR @ WAS ($9,300)
Any recently pulled stat on Fred Van Vleet is going to be massively skewed by his 54 point outburst, with 11 made 3-pointers, just a week ago. Even without factoring that game in, the Wichita State product has been playing well of late. In his three games following his can’t-miss night, Van Vleet has averaged 22.7 points, 7.7 assists, and 2.3 steals per game.
He’ll face the Wizards, the league’s fastest paced team for the first time this season. Washington is allowing the fourth best outside shooting percentage this season, giving Van Vleet the green light to fire up shots.
Bradley Beal, SG - WAS vs TOR ($10,600)
The Raptors-Wizards matchup features two of the most foul-happy teams in the NBA. Toronto and Washington lead the NBA in free throw rate allowed on the defensive end, with the Raptors posting the most fouls per 100 possessions.
On a night with a full slate of games, there needs to be a very enticing reason to spend top dollar on the NBA’s leading scorer. His 8.4 free throw attempts per game against this grabby Raptors lineup is plenty reason to slide Beal onto your roster.
Kevin Huerter, SG – ATL at DAL ($5,000)
With DeAndre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdonovic both sidelined due to injury, Huerter has emerged as a key cog of the Hawks lineup. Despite only starting 12 games, Huerter has played the second most minutes of any Atlanta player, even more than Tare Young, Clint Capela, and Hunter.
He’s produced, especially of late. Huerter’s averaging 16.5 points, 4.5 assists, and 1.3 steals in four February games, while shooting a blazing hot 53.8 percent from outside the arc this month. Against a Dallas defense that has struggled at times, there’s no reason to believe he can’t find makeable shots.

FanDuel DFS Forwards
Domantas Sabonis - IND @ BKN ($9,300)
The Nets make for an attractive opponent for DFS players, especially since picking up the tempo post-James Harden acquisition. The Nets are particularly attractive when playing against volume rebounders. Brooklyn has allowed the most field goal attempts and attempted the fourth most shots in the league.
That indicates more possessions and more misses coming off for rebounds. Sabonis is one of the league’s most sure-handed rebounders, snagging 15.5 per 100 possessions. He’ll have every chance to stuff the stat sheet on the glass Wednesday
Malik Beasley, SF – MIN vs LAC ($7,400)
There may not be a more under-the-radar scorer in the NBA so far this season than Beasley. He’s posting 20.5 points per game for the struggling Timberwolves. Of late, he’s been even more effective. In Beasley’s last three games, he’s recorded 23.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 4.7 assists per game.
Against a Clipper team that should beat Minnesota comfortably, Beasley will have plenty of opportunities for looks at the rim. The first time these teams met, Beasley took 16 shots, including 8 from outside the arc.
Mikal Bridges, SF – PHO vs MIL ($5,900)
It’s been a bit of a breakout season for the third-year Villanova product, increasing his scoring output by more than 5 points per game. His last two outings have been two of his most productive of the season, going for a combined 41 points on 23 field goal attempts.
With his 5.5 rebounds per game and 2.3 assists, Bridges has a high-floor as a daily fantasy player. He’s had at least 20 fantasy points in every game but two since Christmas Day.
FanDuel DFS Centers
DeAndre Jordan, C - BKN vs IND ($5,100)
Though Jordan is no longer stuffing stat sheets like he was years ago as a Clipper, he has been playing better of late. In his first 13 games of this season, Jordan started nine times, playing 18.4 minutes per game and posting just 4.3 points and 6.8 rebounds.
In his last 13 games, Jordan is up to 22.5 minutes per game, with 9.5 points per game and 6.6 rebounds per game. It’s no coincidence. Since James Harden landed in Brooklyn, Jordan has been the beneficiary of more open looks at the rim and is taking advantage.
