We have a nice slate of games for a Thursday, with many of them projected to run close, as well as be high-scoring. Not many significant injuries to work with, so your best bet will be to work on matchups, game pace and the over/under.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/15/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options, to lower-priced players and value picks on DraftKings.
Give me a holler on Twitter and say hello @Den_Clausen. Let’s get started.

DraftKings DFS Guards
Kemba Walker - PG, @ ATL ($8,400)
Walker has had it very easy against the Hawks this season, averaging 31 points and shooting an impressive 58 percent from deep on just over six shots per outing. Those aren't bad numbers by any stretch and though hitting six three-pointers again may be out of the equation, he should still have a nice night.
Donovan Mitchell - PG/SG, vs. PHO ($7,400)
Phoenix is going to make Utah push the pace a tad more than they would like in this one. However, though it may not be as beneficial for the Jazz to play faster as it relates to defensive numbers, it is always good news from a fantasy perspective. Mitchell has hit at least 30 fantasy points in each of his last seven games, with number eight likely coming on Thursday.
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Jarell Martin - PF/C, vs. CHI ($5,100)
The Grizzlies have been a hurting unit as of late which has resulted in additional responsibilities for those who are able to suit up. Martin has seen a pretty good workload and though he will likely move back to the bench for the matchup with the Bulls, he should still get enough action to make an impact against a Chicago team that has had their issues up front.
Noah Vonleh - PF/C, @ MEM ($3,800)
With Lauri Markkanen out dealing with a back injury, Vonleh got some extra minutes as a member of the starting unit, playing 27 minutes against the Los Angeles Clippers. Though he wasn’t efficient on the offensive end, he made up for it by pulling down seven rebounds on the night. He will have another chance to start on Thursday night and could end up with a double-double. For only $3,800, it’s a risk worth taking.
DraftKings DFS Centers
Dwight Howard - C, @ ATL ($8,500)
Dwight will once again be going up against his former squad and he still has a lot to prove, especially with how things ended for him in Atlanta. With things going as bad as they could possibly go for the Hawks this season, Howard could end up as the top DFS center of the night.
