Fantasy players are focusing mainly on MLB at the moment, and that means we can capitalize on NBA. We're nearing the end of the season, so there are plenty of players that have been benched, creating value on teams.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/30/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options, to lower-priced players and value picks on DraftKings.
Say hello on Twitter and give me a follow @BalesSJustin. Good luck!
DraftKings DFS Guards
Donovan Mitchell - PG/SG, vs MEM ($7,500)
Mitchell has been playing well for Utah for the majority of the season. He has also been playing well over the last 10 days, averaging 25.6 points, 3.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 2.2 steals in 38.1 minutes per game over that span. He gets a good matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies, who are embracing the youth movement, meaning Mitchell can be used in all leagues for his current price tag tonight.
Brandon Ingram - SG/SF, vs LAL ($5,600)
Ingram returned to action in the Lakers last game, scoring 27.5 fantasy points in only 23 minutes of action. He is expected to see around 30 minutes tonight, adding to his upside. His price tag represents his injury rather than his production for the majority of the season. Ingram does come with a small amount of concern because of his injury, but he should be able to exceed value at his lowered price.
Other DraftKings DFS Guards to Consider: Russell Westbrook, Ricky Rubio, Chris Paul
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Taurean Prince - SG/SF, vs PHI ($7,300)
Prince had a pair of tough games recently, but he has been playing at an elite level for quite some time aside from those games. Excluding those two games, Prince is averaging 46.2 fantasy points per game over his last seven contests. The Sixers have quietly featured a solid defense this season, but Prince is an efficient player that can score fantasy points multiple different ways. He makes a great option tonight.
Noah Vonleh - PF/C, at ORL ($4,700)
Vonleh has quietly been playing well recently, averaging 9.4 points, 9.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.0 steal in 24.1 minutes per game over the last 10 days. He is also averaging 24.7 fantasy points per game over his last eight games. He is playing solid minutes for the Chicago Bulls, and he should see similar minutes against the Orlando Magic tonight. He can be used as a salary relief option in all leagues tonight.
Other DraftKings DFS Forwards to Consider: Nikola Mirotic, John Collins, Justin Holiday
DraftKings DFS Centers
Jusuf Nurkic - C, vs LAC ($6,500)
Nurkic has been playing bigger minutes recently, recording 27+ minutes in each of his last six games. Over that span, he is averaging 39.9 fantasy points per game. He is a big part of the offense, and the only thing slowing Nurkic down this season has been his inconsistent minutes and foul troubles. He gets a great matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, who he is averaging 1.31 fantasy points per minute against this season. He's a great option in all leagues until his price tag increases.
Other DraftKings DFS Centers to Consider: Rudy Gobert, Karl-Anthony Towns, Bobby Portis
