Yahoo has so many great value options that rostering the more expensive players is actually going to be the issue. This article will help to sort some of that out.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for Yahoo on 3/28/17. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on Yahoo.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @BalesSJustin.
Yahoo DFS Guards
James Harden – PG, vs GS ($62)
There is so much value on this slate that you can essentially fit any elite player into your lineups tonight. Harden is my player of choice. He’s coming off a terrible game against the Thunder, but he’s still averaging 36.0 points, 8.6 rebounds, 12.2 assists, and 2.0 steals per game over the last 10 days. He struggled a bit after the All Star break, but Harden has once again taken the team over. He’s going to need to dominate in this game if the Rockets want a chance at winning, and Harden makes a great option in all leagues.
Ish Smith – PG, vs MIA ($13)
Smith loses a bit of value tonight if Reggie Jackson suits up, which is expected, but he’s still entirely too cheap. He’s averaging 10.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.4 steals in only 25.2 minutes per game over the last 10 days. He’s a player that can score fantasy points in a hurry, even against a tough Miami defense. He should only be used tonight because of his low price tag, but that price is so low Smith can be considered in all leagues.
Also Consider - Dennis Schroder - PG, vs PHO ($27)
Yahoo DFS Forwards
Paul George – SF, vs MIN ($42)
George is another expensive option, who is coming off a bad game, but has been on fire recently. He’s averaging 24.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.8 steals per game over the last 10 days. George has also scored at least 50 fantasy points in three of his last six games. He gets a good matchup against the Wolves tonight, and PG13 dominated them in their only matchup this season. He isn’t going to come cheap, but you’ll have to spend your money somewhere, and George makes an outstanding option.
Taurean Prince – SF, vs PHO ($12)
Prince has been forced into big minutes for the Hawks recently because of multiple injuries to key players. He has found moderate success in those minutes, though, averaging 9.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.0 block, and 1.2 steals per game over the last 10 days. He’s a player that comes with tremendous upside for his price, and he should also have no problems hitting value. He gets a great matchup against a fast paced Phoenix team tonight, and Prince is an elite salary relief option on this slate.
Also Consider - Danilo Gallinari - SF, at POR ($25)
Yahoo DFS Centers
Dwight Howard – C, vs PHO ($25)
As mentioned earlier, the Hawks are dealing with a few injuries, which has opened to door for Howard to take over. He has done just that, as he’s averaging 16.0 points, 12.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.6 steals per game over the last 10 days. He has been playing a bigger role in the offense recently, and Howard has been able to double double in six consecutive games. He gets a great matchup against a fast paced Suns team tonight, and Howard can safely be used in all leagues.
Also Consider - Clint Capela - C, vs GS ($17)
