It is Wednesday, so there is a big, 10-game NBA slate tonight. Yahoo daily fantasy basketball is terrible with pricing, so there are multiple great value options. Those options are outlined below.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for Yahoo on 3/15/17. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on Yahoo.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @thedominatordfs.

Yahoo DFS Guards
Jordan Clarkson - PG, at HOU ($14)
Jordan Clarkson recently started for the Los Angeles Lakers, as Luke Walton opted to bench D'Angelo Russell. Clarkson has been seeing around 30-35 minutes per game over his last few games, and that should continue tonight against the Houston Rockets. The Rockets are an uptempo team, and this should turn into a rather high-scoring affair. Clarkson has over 24 fantasy points in four consecutive games, and his upside is around 40-50 fantasy points. At his price tag, fantasy owners need to roster him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.
Allen Crabbe - SG, at SAS ($11)
Allen Crabbe is a very cheap shooting guard option tonight, and even though he gets a tough matchup against the San Antonio Spurs, he should hit value. He has over 15 fantasy points in four consecutive games, and over 25 fantasy points in three of those four contests. Crabbe is a great shooter, and the Portland Trailblazers are allowing him to do just that. He is playing huge minutes - around 30-35 minutes on the court per game - and that is not going to change against the Spurs. For his price tag, he can, like Jordan Clarkson, be rostered in all leagues.
Also Consider – Buddy Hield - SG, at PHX ($10)
Yahoo DFS Forwards
TJ Warren - SF, vs SAC ($21)
TJ Warren started to slow down over his last two games, but prior to that, he posted over 40 fantasy points in 39 minutes against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Phoenix Suns are allowing Warren to take over the offensive, and he is thriving. The Sacramento Kings are one of the worst defensive teams in the league, and this should turn into a shootout with relatively little defense. Those are the kinds of games that fantasy owners are going to want to attack. Warren is a little bit more expensive than most of the other recommended fantasy options in this article, but he has also been producing at a higher level. Roster him in all leagues.
Tobias Harris – PF, vs UTA ($19)
Tobias Harris is too cheap on Yahoo tonight. He does get a tough matchup against the great Utah Jazz defense, but he should still hit value. In his last game, Harris posted just under 50 fantasy points. With that kind of upside, his price tag should be $25 or up. He has over 30 fantasy points in two consecutive games now, and it does not look like he plans on slowing down any time soon. The Detroit Pistons do not have too many great scorers, so Harris is not challenged by other scorers. He took over 20 shots in his last game, and he will continue to take as many shots as he wants. He is best suited for tournaments, but can be rostered in all leagues.
Also Consider – Brandon Ingram - SF, at HOU ($11)
Yahoo DFS Centers
Alan Williams - C, vs SAC ($18)
Alan Williams has over 25 fantasy points in six of his last seven games, and in four of those contests, he posted over 30 fantasy points. The Sacramento Kings are now without DeMarcus Cousins, and that impacted their ability to cover the center position. Williams should have no issues rebounding or scoring tonight. He has huge upside, and his price tag is very reasonable. Roster the Phoenix Suns' rising star in tournaments tonight. There are better cash games options at this position.
Also Consider – Kosta Koufos - C, at PHX ($10)
