FanDuel DFS Guards
Russell Westbrook - PG, vs. POR ($12,100)
Though Giannis Antetokounmpo is an enticing option for everyone's fantasy lineup, he sat out against Orlando on Saturday with knee soreness, and with the Bucks anticipated to handle the Bulls with no trouble at all, likely leading to a reduced workload for the freak, I would rather spend my $12,000 on Westbrook ($12,100 in his case). The game between OKC and Portland is projected to be the highest-scoring game of the night, at least according to Vegas, and with an anticipated pace of 104.2, which is also the highest of the slate, let's get it done with Russ'.
Andrew Wiggins - SG, vs. LAC ($6,500)
Wiggins has been hot over the past two games, averaging 50.4 fantasy points during that span. Though he will take a hit from a production standpoint if Derrick Rose and/or Jeff Teague are able to suit up, the price is too reasonable to pass up. Go ahead and roll with Wiggins, but if Rose or Teague are missing, pull the trigger with no questions asked.
Other FanDuel DFS Guards to Consider: Damian Lillard ($10,100), Kyle Lowry ($8,200), Chris Paul ($7,800), Dennis Smith Jr. ($6,900), Patrick Beverly ($5,100), Kadeem Allen ($3,500 - If Emmanuel Mudiay sits), Bradley Beal ($9,600), Lou Williams ($7,900), Zach LaVine ($7,800), C.J. McCollum ($7,600), Khris Middleton ($6,500), Caris Levert ($4,900), Eric Gordon ($4,700), Dion Waiters ($4,400), Chasson Randle ($3,500)
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Paul George - SF, vs. POR ($11,600)
The Thunder will be hosting the Blazers on Monday night, two teams who are currently battling for the third spot in the Western Conference. George has had his way with Portland this season, averaging 36.5 points, eight boards, three steals, and shooting an impressive 45 percent from deep in two meetings thus far. The Blazers are coming off a tough loss to Dallas on Sunday night so expect them to bring it, keeping this game competitive and offensively focused.
Jabari Parker - SF, @ DET ($3,900)
How Parker is priced below $4,000 is news to me, but we can take full advantage of it while we can because I have a feeling that will rise within the next game or so. He will likely have high ownership as well, especially after producing at least 40 fantasy points in each of his first two outings in his new home and his stock will even be higher if Jeff Green, who is listed as day-to-day with a hip injury, isn't available on Monday night.
Other FanDuel DFS Forwards to Consider: Giannis Antetokounmpo ($12,000), Kawhi Leonard ($9,900), Danilo Gallinari ($7,000), Trevor Ariza ($6,000), Bojan Bogdanovic ($5,800), Kevin Knox ($4,600), Blake Griffin ($9,000), Lauri Markkanen ($8,300), Montrezl Harrell ($7,700), Bobby Portis ($6,400)
FanDuel DFS Centers
Ivica Zubac - C, @ MIN ($3,900)
Zubac shined at times towards the end of his tenure with the Lakers and appears to have set himself up for a substantial role with the Clippers. In his first game with the other Los Angeles team, the 21-year-old logged 23 minutes, finishing with 12 points, nine rebounds, and three blocks. He is talented, and his departure from Los Angeles to Los Angeles was a decision made based on his inability to shoot the ball from range, something that the Lakers are looking for from the players on their roster.
Other FanDuel DFS Centers to Consider: Karl-Anthony Towns ($11,200), Andre Drummond ($10,600), Steven Adams ($6,900), Robin Lopez ($4,400), Nerlens Noel ($3,600)
