DraftKings DFS Point Guards
John Wall (at NO, $9,100) – Wall is arguably the best point guard in the NBA when he gets hot. I still believe that is Russell Westbrook, but to each his own. Over the last 10 days, Wall is averaging 27.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 9.8 assists, and 3.0 steals per game. He’s coming off a near triple double, and he has scored 60+ fantasy points in three of his last six games. He gets a great matchup against a fast paced Pelicans team who have struggled against point guards this season. Wall can be used in all leagues.
Ricky Rubio (at DEN, $7,000) – Rubio has been playing extremely well recently, scoring 34.75, 37.75, and 38.0 fantasy points in his last three games. He’s finally playing big minutes for the first time since his injury, and he’s the leader of this team, once again. He gets a great matchup against the Nuggets, who love pushing the pace and struggle on the defensive end. They are currently ranked second last in the NBA against point guards, and Rubio can be used in all leagues.
DraftKings DFS Shooting Guards
Klay Thompson (at BOS, $6,800) – Thompson is currently questionable with an ankle injury, so you’ll have to check back before the game to make sure he’s playing. He has also been heating up recently, as he’s averaging 25.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.2 blocks per game over the last 10 days, including a huge 61.75 fantasy point game a few night ago. He gets a good matchup against the Celtics tonight, who have struggled defensively at times this season. Thompson is a great tournament option if he’s active tonight.
O.J. Mayo (at TOR, $5,400) – Mayo will continue to start if Jerryd Bayless is out tonight, which is when he has his most upside. Mayo is averaging 29.1 fantasy points per game over his last four games, which is how long Bayless has been out. His price is still fairly low, and he has good upside. He has yet to score as well as he has proven he can in his career, but he’s also contributing rebounds, assists, and steals to his fantasy totals. He gets a decent matchup against the Raptors, and Mayo can be used in all leagues.
DraftKings DFS Small Forwards
Paul George (vs MIA, $10,200) – If you avoid PG13 tonight, you’re crazy. It’s really that simple. He has been on an unbelievable tear, as he has scored 61.0, 61.5, and 71.5 fantasy points in three of his last four games. He has scored 60+ fantasy points in five of his last 10 games, and he gets a good matchup against the Heat tonight. The Pacers lean on George every night, and he is generally taking over 20 shots per game. He’s an extremely safe option, especially at only $10.2K, and he also has tons of upside. He can be used in all leagues.
Jae Crowder (vs GS, $5,700) – Crowder has flashed great upside at times this season, but he has also really struggled at times. He plays minutes in the low-30s each night, which gives him a decent floor, but it is much lower than his value. Tonight, he gets a good matchup against a fast paced Warriors team, who have been dealing with some injuries. Paul George recently dominated them, and Crowder will get the plus matchup tonight. He’s a good GPP option for his price tag tonight.
DraftKings DFS Power Forwards
Zach Randolph (vs CHA, $6,300) – Z-Bo has really been struggling this season, but he has been dealing with injuries and limited minutes because of blowouts. In his last game, he posted a huge double double with 21 points and 16 rebounds. He finally looks fully healthy, and he gets a great matchup against the Hornets tonight. Charlotte ranks second last in the NBA against power forwards, and Z-Bo may be a bit underpriced for his talent. He’s a GPP option, but he does have good upside with a fairly cheap price tag.
Cody Zeller (at MEM, $4,700) – Zeller has taken many of the minutes left over by the Al Jefferson injury. In his last three games, he has played 32, 28, and 24 minutes. His price is a bit too low for someone that can fill the stat sheet when given the minutes like Zeller can. Tonight, he gets a good matchup against the Grizzlies, who have played well against power forwards, but have struggled against centers this season. Zeller doesn’t get consistent enough minutes for cash games, but he’s a good GPP option.
DraftKings DFS Centers
Andre Drummond (at PHI, $9,500) – Drummond gets a matchup against the Sixers tonight, and that’s all I really should have to say. He’s coming off an 18-point, 19-rebound game, and he has the ability to go for 20/20 on any given night. Okafor recently struggled against Boban Marjanovic, and Drummond is a whole new beast tonight. He’s also far too big for Noel to guard, and Drummond should be able to score and rebound as much as he wants tonight. At only $9.5K, he can be used in all leagues.
