Big night in the NBA as there are 12 games in play for tonight. There are a lot of good value plays out there and some studs that are crucial to get in your lineup.
The point guard position has a couple of really good value plays with Chris Paul being the top play at that position.Tyreke Evans continues to a great play at home and he's now the top shooting guard on the board. The small forward position is a complete crap shoot tonight, so I'll be saving money there in order to spend up on higher tier players at other positions.
The power forward position is filled with fantasy gold tonight as there are three-to-four really good plays, but Anthony Davis is clearly the number one option at that position. There aren't a lot of good options at center tonight, so if you don't go with Marc Gasol, go with one of the cheaper options.
Here is the Daily Fantasy Basketball Playbook for December 12th:
Point guards
| Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments |
| Chris Paul | Clippers | 10,000 | 10,200 | Playing elite ball and PG's are having their way with WSH |
| Jeff Teague | Hawks | 7,900 | 7,000 | Love his value on FD |
| Mario Chalmers | Heat | 5,700 | 5,600 | Starting with Wade out. Averaging 17/3/6.5 as a starter this season |
| Norris Cole | Heat | 3,400 | 4,400 | Love as punt play that should easily exceed value |
Shooting Guards
| Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments |
| Tim Hardaway | Knicks | 4,200 | 3,900 | Value takes a hit with Melo in play, but still a good play. |
| Tyreke Evans | Pelicans | 7,000 | 7,100 | Cavaliers are brutal vs SG's & he plays better at home |
| Kyle Korver | Hawks | 5,600 | 5,800 | Will flirt with 30 FP on FD. |
| Rasual Butler | Wizards | 3,100 | 4,200 | Boom/bust play for GPP's. Gut play |
Small Forwards
| Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments |
| Tobias Harris | Magic | 6,700 | 7,000 | Consistent Mid-Tier play |
| Solomon Hill | Pacers | 4,300 | 4,800 | Superb matchup that will easily exceed value |
| Corey Brewer | T-Wolves | 5,700 | 5,300 | Tough matchup, but gets steals in bunches |
| DeMarre Carroll | Hawks | 5,700 | 5,500 | Has 27 FP in 4 straight games |
Power Forwards
| Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments | | Anthony Davis | Pelicans | 11,200 | 11,200 | Cheapest he's been in a long time. Had 66 FP in their previous matchup | | Taj Gibson | Bulls | 5,900 | 6,000 | Ankle looks healthy & playing heavy minutes with Noah out | | Greg Monroe | Pistons | 7,200 | 6,800 | Has destroyed the Suns in the past. Would only play if I had the extra $$ | | Amar'e Stoudemire | Knicks | 5,900 | 6,200 | Celtics are brutal vs PF/C's. Consistent mid-tier play |
|
Centers
| Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments |
| Marc Gasol | Grizzlies | 8,500 | 8,600 | Best chance to have a big game at the center position |
| Tyler Zeller | Celtics | 5,000 | 4,200 | Will reach value on FD. Like Olynyk a lot more on DK |
| Jonas Valanciunas | Raptors | 5,500 | 6,200 | Good mid-tier value play on DK |
