After a massive slate on Monday, the league has only three games scheduled on Tuesday. With not many injuries to speak of outside of DeAndre Jordan, who is listed as a game-time call, there isn't a lot of room for flexibility.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 2/26/19. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. You can also check out today's DraftKings lineup picks.

FanDuel DFS Guards
Russell Westbrook - PG, @ DEN ($12,200)
Westbrook is a lock for Tuesday night, and with the Thunder and Nuggets fighting for the second spot in the West, you know these teams are going to bring it. He is averaging a triple-double against Denver throughout two meetings this season by way of 14.5 points, 12 boards, and 10 assists, and will most certainly produce similar numbers in this one.
Kyrie Irving - PG, @ TOR ($9,700)
After Irving declared that the Celtics shouldn't be worried about the playoffs "because I'm here," he will have added pressure to produce against the Raptors, a team that they were expected to be battling against for the number one seed in the Eastern Conference. However, things aren't exactly working out for Boston as they are currently behind Philly for the fifth spot. With so many people doubting his ability to lead a team, look for him to be aggressive on the offensive end in a game that will be high-scoring.
Terrence Ross - SG, @ NYK ($5,800)
Ross is as reliable as they come and though he won't produce huge numbers, he consistently hits his value. He continues to get a healthy amount of minutes off the bench and was very impressive against Toronto, finishing the night with 28 points and nine rebounds for a whopping 38.3 fantasy points. The Knicks aren't a good team, which is common knowledge at this point, so look for the veteran to have another strong outing on Tuesday night.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Paul George - SF, @ DEN ($11,600)
Just like Westbrook, George should also be considered a lock against the Nuggets. Though he struggled in the team's last game against Sacramento by dropping only 14 points on 4-for-19 shooting from the field, he is producing some of his best numbers of the year against Denver. It's going to be tough financially, but stacking Westbrook with George is the way to go.
Jerami Grant - PF, @ DEN ($5,800)
After missing a few games before the All-Star break with an ankle injury, Grant produced nearly 40 fantasy points in the double-overtime win over the Utah Jazz. With the game between OKC and Denver expected to have a combined score of nearly 240 points, there will be plenty of opportunities for Grant to get involved.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Al Horford - C, @ TOR ($8,000)
Behind Kyrie Irving, it can be argued that Horford is the second-best option on the team, even at his advanced NBA age of 32. He likely won't hit his value of 40 fantasy points, but you never know, especially if he can drain some from deep and throw in a few blocks here and there. For the price, you can't go wrong.
