Wednesday showcases a nine-game slate with four teams (ATL, CHI, IND and ORL) on their second leg of a back-to-back while the Los Angeles Clippers are entering the first leg of a back-to-back. Be wary of these four teams who may sit any veterans or banged up players. Also be aware the Clippers have already ruled out Kawhi Leonard (rest) for Wednesday night.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/6/19. You can also check out today's FanDuel lineup picks.

DraftKings DFS Guards
Russell Westbrook - PG, HOU v. GS ($9,400)
After sitting out Monday for rest purposes, Russell Westbrook should have no restrictions going into Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Over his career, Westbrook has averaged 23.3 points, 8.2 assists and 6.2 rebounds against Golden State. This is a completely different Golden State team from what Westbrook has usually faced. The Warriors are the worst-ranked team defense in the league this season after losing Kevin Durant to free agency and Stephen Curry (hand), Klay Thompson (knee) and Draymond Green (finger) to injury. Westbrook is in prime position to record his third triple-double this season.
Ky Bowman - PG, GS @ HOU ($5,900)
With a myriad of injuries hampering Golden State, Ky Bowman has stepped up greatly in recent play. Bowman has started the past two games for the injured D'Angelo Russell (ankle) and averaging 17.5 points on 60.0 percent shooting, 6.0 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 1.5 three-pointers in 38.5 minutes per game. Russell is listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest and Bowman would be a great value play if Russell is unable to play.

Jabari Parker - SF/PF, ATL v. CHI ($6,700)
Jabari Parker is the next man up in Atlanta with John Collins (suspension) serving a 25-game suspension for PEDs. Parker got a spot start Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs and put up 19 points on 64.3 percent shooting and eight rebounds in 32 minutes. Parker gets a great matchup on Wednesday at home against the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls just gave up a 30-point triple-double to LeBron James Tuesday night and are giving up the most fantasy points to opposing forwards this season. Look for Parker to be a solid play on Wednesday.
Wendell Carter Jr. - PF/C, CHI @ ATL ($5,900)
The Chicago Bulls are on a second night of a back-to-back, but Wendell Carter Jr. has had no issues with playing time after his thumb surgery this offseason. Carter has also recorded a double-double in five of his past six games. Carter and the Bulls now face the Atlanta Hawks who are also on the second night of a back-to-back and just lost budding star forward John Collins (suspension) due to a suspension. Even prior to losing Collins, the Hawks were giving up the most fantasy points in the league to opposing centers this season. Carter is poised to record his fourth-straight double-double.
DraftKings DFS Centers
Goga Bitadze - PF/C, IND v. WAS ($4,200)
Goga Bitadze has filled in admirably for the injured Domantas Sabonis (calf) and Myles Turner (ankle). In two consecutive starts, Bitadze has put up an average of 7.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and an astounding 4.0 blocks in 25.5 minutes per game. Despite all this, Bitadze has fouled out in both starts and has had foul trouble when getting meaningful minutes. Bitadze value is solely tied to the health of Sabonis and Turner. If one or both sit out Wednesday, Bitadze will be a great value play to pair with a higher salary player in Wednesday's slate.
