NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 5/6/16

 

There are only two games on the slate tonight.

Will the Cleveland Cavaliers win by more than 20 points tonight is the real question.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 5/6/16. 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 ATL, $7,900)

The Cleveland Cavaliers are the team to attack at the guard position. Russell Westbrook gets a tough matchup against the very defensive-minded San Antonio Spurs, and Kyrie Irving gets a great matchup against the offensive-minded Atlanta Hawks. In his last two games, he has 31.4 and 38.2 fantasy points. He has over 40 fantasy points on two occasions so far this postseason, and he should continue to play well tonight. With only two games on the slate, it is impossible to be picky.

J.R. Smith (at ATL, $5,000)

J.R. Smith looked solid in his last game, and he is worth his price tag without a doubt. In his last two games, which are the only two games the Cleveland Cavaliers have played against the Atlanta Hawks, Smith has 29.4 and 24.5 fantasy points. He is shooting well from the three-point line, and he is playing a lot of minutes. The other shooting guard options on the board are horrendous, so roster Smith and move on to forward.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

LeBron James (at ATL, $10,600)

LeBron James gets a great matchup against the Atlanta Hawks, and he has been great this entire series so far. He posted over 50 fantasy points in the first game of the series and over 40 fantasy points in the second. In the second game, he only played 28 minutes, so he has a lot more potential, if the game stays close tonight. The Atlanta Hawks are the worst defensive team still in the playoffs, so using players on the opposite team makes a lot of sense. James is incredible in the playoffs. Roster him.

Kent Bazemore (vs CLE, $5,400)

Kent Bazemore is cheap, and he has huge upside. He did not play well in his last game, which was against the Cleveland Cavaliers, obviously. He posted under 10 fantasy points, but in the game prior, he posted over 35 fantasy points in 36 minutes on the court. He is not very consistent at all, so only use him in tournaments. It is probably unwise to play a 50/50 contest with only two games on the slate anyway. Bazemore will make for the perfect salary relief option at the forward position.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Al Horford (vs CLE, $7,200)

Aside from Al Horford, the centers on the board are ridiculous. This really does not need much analysis. He is simply the best and most talented center on the board without a doubt. Use him in all formats and in every single league.
