DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/11/16): NBA DFS Advice

After two huge slates, the NBA schedule settles down tonight. We only get a six game slate, which is more than enough to play. There aren't as many great options as the bigger slates, but there are good values plays to combine with solid mid- and high-priced options.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/11/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on DraftKings. If you have questions, come to the chat room and ask me yourself. I understand the importance of an outside opinion so feel free to come by and talk basketball.

DraftKings DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook – PG, vs BOS ($12,400) 

Westrbook comes with an extremely high price tag, but he’s nearly a must start on this slate. There are only a few games, which limits the amount of usage options. Westbrook has triple doubled in seven consecutive games, and he’s averaging 70.1 fantasy points per game over the last 10 days. He gets a solid matchup against the Celtics, and Westbrook can safely be used in all leagues, as he’s a consistent player with elite upside, as well.

Reggie Jackson – PG, vs PHI ($5,100)

Jackson hasn’t looked outstanding since returning from injury, but he has been playing fairly big minutes recently. If he weren’t coming off an injury, Jackson would be priced significantly higher regardless of his recent production. He’s going to continuously get better as he knocks the rust off, and he gets a great matchup against the Sixers. Jackson isn’t safe enough for cash games, but he can be used in tournaments tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Carmelo Anthony – SF, @LAL ($7,600)

Melo has struggled at times this season, as he relies heavily on scoring, but he has also displayed elite upside. He’s a huge part of the Knicks offense, and he’s shooting as much as he wants on a nightly basis. He gets a solid matchup against the Lakers, who love pushing the pace. This game should be high scoring, which is the type of game Anthony thrives in, and he’s a great tournament option tonight.

Ersan Ilyasova – PF, @DET ($5,900)

I’m not a huge believer in Ersanity, but he has been playing too well to ignore recently. Over his last four games, he’s averaging 41.1 fantasy points per game over his last four games. Joel Embiid has been ruled out tonight, which means Ilyasova will play a bigger role in the offense tonight. He gets a tough matchup against the Pistons, but he’s cheap enough to be considered in all leagues on the small slate tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Jahlil Okafor – PF/C, @DET ($5,000)

Joel Embiid is dealing with a minor injury, which means Jahlil Okafor will start for him tonight. Okafor isn’t on a minute’s restriction anymore, and he scored 27.5 and 36.25 fantasy points in each of his last two games. He’ll be a huge part of the offense tonight, and Okafor is a player that can contribute in multiple categories. He gets a decent matchup against the Pistons, and Okafor is cheap enough to be used in all leagues tonight.
