I hope everyone had a nice weekend. The association features six games on Monday as we head towards the halfway point of the month. In terms of Vegas, Sacramento/Washington lead the slate with a projected combined overall score of 241.5 points followed by Oklahoma City/Utah at 227.5. Expect these games, in addition to Detroit/Brooklyn, to run close as these teams fight for playoff positioning.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 3/11/19. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. You can also check out today's DraftKings lineup picks.

FanDuel DFS Guards
Russell Westbrook - PG, @ UTA ($11,300)
Westbrook is averaging 21 points, 12.7 rebounds, and nine assists throughout three meetings with the Jazz this season, making him a lock considering his price tag. Though those numbers are inflated a bit as a result of the 148-147 double-overtime win over the Jazz back in February, he is too generously priced to look past, especially considering how important this game is as it relates to the playoff picture in the Western Conference.
De'Aaron Fox - PG, @ WSH ($8,000)
With a projected pace of 106.89, paired with a high over/under, an efficient plan of attack will be to stack as many players from this game as possible. Though his numbers have slightly dwindled over the past month or so, Fox is still averaging nearly 14 shot attempts per game. He will have a favorable matchup against a Washington team that is ranked at the bottom in terms of defensive efficiency and fantasy points against. For that reason, Fox, along with Buddy Hield, should have a place in everyone's lineup on Monday night.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Paul George - SF, @ UTA ($10,600)
Just as in the case with Russell Westbrook, George is also featured at a discounted price on Monday. Though he struggled against the Clippers, finishing with only 18.7 fantasy points, we have to keep in mind that this performance was after coming off of a 63.8 fantasy point outing from the night before in an overtime win over the Portland Trail Blazers. With a few days of rest behind him, the 28-year-old should be ready to go for an important game with the Utah Jazz.
Blake Griffin - PF, @ BKN ($8,300)
Speaking of important matchups, the Pistons will travel to Brooklyn for a critical game against the Nets. Despite getting some additional rest against the Bulls on Sunday, Griffin still managed to finish the night with 28 points, six boards, and five assists in only 26 minutes. He has played well against Brooklyn all season and should get a full workload against a Nets team that struggles on the interior end of the floor.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Andre Drummond - C, @ BKN ($10,600)
Drummond has dominated Brooklyn all season, averaging 24 points, 21.5 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks. With the Nets being one of the worst in the league underneath the basket, expect similar production from the 25-year-old on Monday night.
