By Keith Allison from Hanover, MD, USA (LeBron James) [CC BY-SA 2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

Jason Bales highlights the top NBA DFS lineup picks for 3/15/16, as well as a couple of sleepers to keep in mind while building your roster on FanDuel.

 

Tonight is a great night for some fantasy basketball.

The slate is big enough to find some solid value, and there are some great high-priced plays as well. Don't forget to put Giannis Antetokounmpo into your lineups!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 3/15/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on FanDuel.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Rajon Rondo (at LAL, $8,000)

Rajon Rondo should only be used in tournaments right now. He is all over the place with his fantasy production, which makes sense because the Sacramento Kings are all over the place with their ability to score. Rondo gets a great matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers tonight, and he should be able to take advantage of it. As great as D'Angelo Russell is on offense, he really struggles defensively. He will get better over time, but not right now. Rondo has the ability to post over 40 fantasy points, and his price tag is down. Do not use him in 50/50 contests.

Jordan Clarkson (vs SAC, $5,700)

Jordan Clarkson has not played well in two straight games now, but he should be able to turn it around shortly. He gets a great matchup against the Sacramento Kings tonight, so it could be tonight that he finally figures it out. Rajon Rondo, as great as he is offensively, is terrible defensively. In two of his last four games, Clarkson has under 25 fantasy points. However, in his other two games, he posted over 30 fantasy points. It is likely that he plays well tonight, as long as he does not see around 20 minutes again tonight like he did last night against the New York Knicks. Do not trust Clarkson in 50/50 contests.

Isaiah Canaan (at BKN, $3,800)

Isaiah Canaan is really starting to turn things around, as he is playing around 25-30 minutes per game for the Philadelphia 76ers right now. The Brooklyn Nets, who Canaan is facing off against tonight, are horrible against opposing point guards. With over 20 fantasy points in three of his last four games, Canaan is returning value on a consistent basis. His price tag is definitely too low right now. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Giannis Antetokounmpo (vs TOR, $9,900)

Giannis Antetokounmpo is now almost $10,000 and his price tag is still too low. He is one of the best fantasy players in the entire league. In his last game, which was against the Brooklyn Nets, he posted over 70 fantasy points, which really isn't even all that surprising anymore. He has over 60 in three of his last seven games. Every time he steps onto the court, he is liable to triple-double, and the Toronto Raptors are not going to be able to slow him down. Use him in all formats, despite his ups and downs, he still is consistently posting over 40 fantasy points. Just because his upside is so high doesn't mean he isn't a solid 50/50 option.

Rudy Gay (at LAL, $6,200)

Rudy Gay, after two solid performances against the New Orleans Pelicans and Cleveland Cavaliers, really started to struggle. He posted under 20 fantasy points in his last two games against the Orlando Magic and Utah Jazz. Tonight, he gets a great matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers, who are terrible against the small forward position. Gay is not an important part of the Sacramento Kings offense anymore, and he does not get to touch the ball enough. However, he has ridiculous upside, as he is one of the best scorers in the league. Use him in tournaments tonight.

Carl Landry (at BKN, $4,400)

Carl Landry has played 25 minutes in two straight games now. Richaun Holmes is out for the next couple of games, which means that Landry will continue to play big minutes. His price tag is actually a little higher than it really should be, but he is still going to hit value. He has 25 plus fantasy points in two straight games, and it is reasonable to expect that again tonight against the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets are horrible on defense, and the Sixers are going to put up a fight against them. Perhaps they will beat them like they did two games ago. Even though it already happened, it is always surprising when the Sixers win. Use Landry in all formats.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Brook Lopez (vs PHI, $8,500)

Brook Lopez made the Sixers look like a joke the last time they played. He did only post around 40 fantasy points, but he was scoring at will. Unfortunately, he didn't grab too many rebounds or block too many shots. Tonight should be different. The Sixers are playing without any of their good big men, except for Nerlens Noel. Lopez should have no problems scoring and rebounding all over them tonight. Use him in all formats.
