Wednesday features yet another 11-game slate with absolutely no teams on the second half of a back-to-back. The only team entering a back-to-back is the Los Angeles Clippers so be weary of any veterans, including Kawhi Leonard, of being rested in either game. There are a ton of options here in this busy slate. Let's get right to it.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 10/30/19.

DraftKings DFS Guards
Devin Booker - PG/SG, PHO @ GSW ($7,900)
The Golden State Warriors are not the same team from the season before, especially defensively. The Warriors are currently the worst-ranked defense in the league entering Wednesday. They also are sixth in pace, meaning a lot more possessions to be scored on. Enter Devin Booker who are a couple missed opportunities away from a 4-0 start. Booker has the luxury of facing this Warriors defense who is also giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing guards. Booker is an elite play Wednesday, especially under the $8,000 threshold.
Malcolm Brogdon - PG/SG, IND @ BKN ($7,300)
Malcolm Brogdon has been nothing short of spectacular to start the season, averaging 22.3 points, 10.7 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game so far. Brogdon will have a great opportunity to continue his success Wednesday night against Kyrie Irving and the Brooklyn Nets. Rookie JA Morant was able to drop 30 points on Irving in their match Sunday night. Brogdon showed the capability of taking over a game and has a good opportunity to do so again in Brooklyn on Wednesday.
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Pascal Siakam - PF/C, TOR v. DET ($8,400)
Pascal Siakam has been a beast this season. In the absence of former teammate Kawhi Leonard, Siakam is averaging 27.5 points, 10.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 34.3 minutes per game. Siakam's averages would likely be higher, but the Raptors have had two straight wins by double digits, allowing Siakam to take more of a breather. The Detroit Pistons give up the fourth-most points off of turnovers and allow the fifth-most points in the paint. Look for Siakam to feast of the Blake Griffin-less Pistons.
Kelly Oubre Jr. - SF/PF, PHO @ GSW ($6,200)
See Devin Booker. Kelly Oubre Jr. is quietly returning 5x value in DraftKings with an average of 37.2 points per game. The Warriors have given up the third-most fantasy points to forwards this season. The slightly lower price tag also gives the user more flexibility in your lineup. Give Oubre a look for Wednesday's slate.
DraftKings DFS Centers
Myles Turner - C, IND @ BKN ($7,000)
The Indiana Pacers as a team have struggled so far, but Myles Turner has continued to put up numbers. Turner is averaging 17.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game through the first three games. Indiana faces the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, who is currently giving up the most fantasy points to centers in the league. The Nets give up the 12th-most points in the paints to opposing teams and also attempt the eighth-most three-pointers, leaving more rebounding opportunities for Turner.
