NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 3/8/16

By Keith Allison [CC-BY-SA-2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

Six games is nothing to scoff at for a Tuesday. We should have some high totals as well, likely coming from Toronto, Portland, and Los Angeles. Two of the teams we try to avoid (San Antonio and Utah) are on this slate, but that doesn't mean you have to disregard the game entirely. With that being said, much of your focus should be finding where the points will come from in those aforementioned high-scoring games.

In this article, I will be providing you with Daily NBA picks for FanDuel for 3/8/16. The picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays.

Without wasting anymore time, let's get down to it!

FanDuel DFS Guards

PG - Damian Lillard (vs. WAS) - $9,200

Lillard has been doing whatever he wants lately, and this is a prime matchup in terms of pace. Don't over think this one. The Blazers' point guard should probably be over 10K at this point.

PG - D'Angelo Russell (vs. ORL) - $5,900

Russell's price came down dramatically after his dud against the Hawks. He followed that up on Sunday with a monster outing in route to an upset of the Warriors. Therefore, this price is still too low for the new star of the Lakers' offense. Russell has been generating steals regularly to go along with his improved driving and shooting ability. Throw in a handful of assists and a rebound or two and you have a great point guard for this price.

SG - Gary Harris (vs. NY) - $5,00

Harris has become a prime source of minutes and shots for the Nuggets' offense with the absence of Danilo Gallinari. With minutes in the high 30s, Harris will get his fair share of shots. He's way too cheap for his new role, so use him while you can.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

SF - Carmelo Anthony (at DEN) - $9,100

Melo is another nice option to spend up for on Tuesday. He's consistently put up more than 40 FDP the past few nights, which is right around what you need from him to hit value at this price. The upside is certainly there, and he should be relied on down the stretch in what will likely be a close game.

PF - Kenneth Faried (vs. NY) - $6,400

The Manimal is playing some inspired basketball as of late, and his minutes are trending in the right direction. This price is a little unsettling for a guy that has a track record of inconsistency, but his recent stretch is tough to ignore. He certainly seems like a viable play until further notice during this hot streak.

PF - Aaron Gordon (at LAL) - $6,000

This is the perfect matchup for Gordon's athleticism. The game should be high-paced, and Julius Randle will certainly have trouble with Gordon's length. With the recent price drop, the Magic forward is in a prime spot for all leagues on Tuesday.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Whatever Fits

This is the second night in a row in which the center position seems like a barren wasteland. There are countless ways to go, but I don't like any of them significantly over the others. The high priced studs make sense, but their matchups are not enticing. Some of the low-priced guys could exceed value, but there is a lot of risk involved. Go with your guy on this one, and keep an eye on the injury reports to see if any additional value opens up. Best of luck!
