FanDuel has four games available for the "main slate," which begins at 6 pm (eastern). While Vegas hasn't released all of the projected scores for the slate, anticipate New Orleans at Los Angeles (Clippers) to lead the way on Sunday night. Keep an eye on injuries throughout the day, with Bogdan Bogdanovic, Cory Joseph, Troy Brown, Aron Baynes, Ricky Rubio, Josh Hart, Jahlil Okafor, and Landry Shamet all listed as either out, or in danger of not playing.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/24/19.

FanDuel DFS Guards
Spencer Dinwiddie - SG, @ NYK ($7,900)
Kyrie Irving remains sidelined with a bum shoulder, leaving the door open for Dinwiddie to continue leading the team's offense. He is averaging nearly 41 fantasy points with Irving out of the lineup and will continue to do so until the All-Star returns. With Joe Harris and Taurean Prince playing up-and-down basketball as of late, he remains the only source of consistent production for the Nets.
Tyler Johnson - PG, @ DEN ($4,200)
Johnson struggled against the Timberwolves on Saturday night after dropping 30 fantasy points against the Pelicans last Thursday. Of course, this one is dependent on whether or not Ricky Rubio can play after dealing with back spasms over the last week or so. If Rubio is indeed out, feel free to plug in Johnson as a flyer on a night that is filled with hideous options at the point guard position.
Also Consider: Jamal Murray ($7,200), Ricky Rubio ($6,300 - if active), Lonzo Ball ($6,000), Cory Joseph ($4,900 - if active), Frank Ntilikina ($4,400), Bradley Beal ($10,200), Jrue Holiday ($8,600), Devin Booker ($8,200), Buddy Hield ($7,500), Lou Williams ($6,900), Garrett Temple ($5,300), Justin James ($3,500 - if Bogdan Bogdanovic is out)
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Kelly Oubre - SF, @ DEN ($7,300)
Another beneficiary of Ricky Rubio's absence, Oubre has been red-hot over the last several contests, hitting at least 37.2 fantasy points in each of his previous three games. Brandon Ingram and Paul George are obviously solid choices for DFS lineups on Sunday night, but if Rubio misses another one, Oubre will likely see a significant hike in usage and production against the Nuggets.
Frank Kaminsky - PF, @ DEN ($4,000)
Most of the studs on Sunday night are at the two or three spots, so if you are looking to save some dough, this may be the place to do it. While Kaminsky isn't a guy who will consistently give you huge numbers, his ceiling is always high as long as he gets time on the floor. If Aron Baynes isn't available once again, Kaminsky should hit his value despite the tough matchup against the joker.
Also Consider: Brandon Ingram ($9,500), Paul George ($9,100), Marcus Morris ($6,700), Will Barton ($6,100), Taurean Prince ($5,600), Harrison Barnes ($5,500), Davis Bertans ($5,500), Joe Harris ($4,900), Kawhi Leonard ($9,800), Jarrett Allen ($6,900), Nemanja Bjelica ($5,700)
FanDuel DFS Centers
Nikola Jokic - C, vs. PHO ($10,000)
On Friday night, Jokic had a triple-double against the Celtics by finishing with 18 points, 16 rebounds, and 10 assists in addition to three steals and a block. Turnovers have been somewhat of an issue for him this season, and he is shooting a career-low 24.6 percent from deep, but he is playing better (arguably) now than at any point this season. He could be in line for another efficient outing, especially if Aron Baynes isn't able to suit up after missing his last three games with a hip ailment.
Also Consider: Montrezl Harrell ($7,000), Thomas Bryant ($6,900), Jaxson Hayes ($5,000 - if Jahlil Okafor is out)
