How does a trip to the beaches of Southern California and your share of $100,000 sound this winter? Show off your fantasy basketball prowess by playing and qualifying for the FABC over on Fantasy Aces and you could be the envy of every DFS player in the world. 

This is a good night to play some daily fantasy hoops with eight games on the schedule. A lot of stud players are in action tonight, but most of them are going to struggle to reach value. Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins are the top options on the night. 

The point guard position is loaded with awesome mid-tier options that it makes it hard to spend up for Chris Paul or Stephen CurryRicky Rubio, Ty LawsonMo Williams, and Tyreke Evans are all great options to consider tonight (that is the order I have them ranked based on their potential production and price tag). Dennis Schroder has seen his production increase as his minutes have increased, which makes him a solid low-tier option. The shooting guard position is a good place to save money at by going with Khris Middleton and/or Kevin Martin. Giannis Antetokounmpo is a good option on Fanduel. Tony Allen and J.J. Redick are superb punt plays. Tyler Johnson would become an option in GPP contests if Dragic does not play (as would Mario Chalmers). 

The Hawks just shut down Lebron James and are one of the best defensive teams vs small forwards, which is why I'm fading Rudy Gay tonight. Draymond Green has been awesome recently, but not a fan of his high price tag on Fanduel. However, feel confident spending up for him if you have the extra money because he's going to have another monster game vs the Suns. Jae Crowder and Danilo Gallinari should exceed their value tonight on most sites (Gallinari will have hard time reaching value on DraftKings).

Another night with a lot of strong power forward options. Anthony Davis is worth using in GPPs, but his high price tag makes it hard to spend up for him in cash games, especially with all of the other options at the position. Kenneth Faried is going to have his way with the brutal Knicks front court. Speaking of the Knicks front court, Andrea Bargnani is a great play as well since he's the primary scoring option on the team. While he's not listed below, Paul Millsap makes for a good contrarian GPP option as the Kings are brutal vs opposing power forwards. The center position is lead by DeMarcus Cousins, who'll be forced to do everything for the Kings. Like Marc Gasol as a safe mid-tier option. Brandan Wright loses his appeal now that Alex Len is going to play, so go with Spencer Hawes instead of Wright if you want to punt the position.
