NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 4/9/16

 

The NBA season is really winding down now.

Some of these plays may change based on whether or not certain teams do or do not sit their starters. Keep an eye out for that!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 4/9/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on FanDuel.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Kyrie Irving (at CHI, $7,200)

Kyrie Irving has great upside, and he gets a solid matchup against the Chicago Bulls, who may or may not play Derrick Rose tonight. He is always questionable. Irving posted over 40 fantasy points in his last game, which was against the Indiana Pacers. He scored 26 points and dished out six assists in 30 minutes of work. He has over 40 in three of his last five games, so use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.

Tim Frazier (vs PHO, $6,600)

There is absolutely no reason to not play Tim Frazier tonight against the Phoenix Suns. This is going to be an incredibly exciting game due to the terrible offense and defense of both teams. The Phoenix Suns are playing a ton of players with upside, and the New Orleans Pelicans are down to their final couple of players. Frazier has over 30 fantasy points in four straight games now, and he just recently posted over 45 fantasy points in 37 minutes against the Brooklyn Nets. Play him in all leagues without hesitation.

Ronnie Price (at NOR, $3,800)

Ronnie Price has great upside, especially tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Pelicans are a horrible offense, and Price's price is very cheap. He is still under $4,000, and he has over 20 fantasy points in two straight games now. He also has over 20 fantasy points in three of his last four games. His consistency is yet to be determined, but definitely roster him in tournaments, as he should go over value, but he could post under 10 fantasy points like he recently did against the Utah Jazz.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Kevin Durant (at SAC, $10,500)

Kevin Durant did not play in the Oklahoma City Thunder's last game, which was against the Portland Trailblazers. He should play tonight against the Sacramento Kings, regardless of whether or not they decide to play their starters. Durant posted over 50 fantasy points in his last game, which was against the Denver Nuggets, and he did it in 29 minutes. He should post similar numbers against the Kings, who are one of the worst defensive teams in recent NBA history.

Mirza Teletovic (at NOR, $5,500)

Mirza Teletovic has been playing great of recent, and he should continue to be rostered in all formats. He posted over 30 fantasy points in his last game, which was against the Houston Rockets. He played 31 minutes that game. He should continue to play around 30 minutes per game, and he should dominate the New Orleans Pelicans tonight. He has over 25 fantasy points in six straight games, so feel free to fire him up in 50/50 contests.

James Ennis (vs PHO, $3,800)

James Ennis makes for a solid play tonight against the Phoenix Suns due to the amount of minutes he is seeing on the court for the New Orleans Pelicans. The Suns, as everyone already knows, are a terrible defense that loves to push the pace of the game. This will allow Ennis to score more often than usual. He posted over 30 fantasy points three games ago against the Brooklyn Nets in 29 minutes of action. He isn't the best 50/50 contest option on the board, but he makes a lot of sense in tournaments.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Karl-Anthony Towns (at POR, $8,800)

Karl-Anthony Towns is the best center option on the board every time he steps on the court. He posted over 35 fantasy points in his last game, which was against the Sacramento Kings, but that isn't even close to the amount of upside he has. Three games ago, he posted over 50 fantasy points in 44 minutes of action. He played over 40 minutes in two of his last three games, and if he continues to do that, look out. The Portland Trail Blazers are horrible against opposing centers, so click the add button next to KAT's name and don't look back.
