The Daily Fantasy Basketball Playbook was firing on all cylinders last night as punt plays like
Mario Chalmers and
Corey Brewer had huge games and
Brandon Knight had a huge game as well. Looking forward to continuing that success tonight as there are 10 games on the NBA slate tonight.
The point guard position has two of the best at that position playing tonight(Curry and Paul), but the players a tier down from them should produce a high volume of fantasy points as well. The shooting guard and Small forward positions are filled with value plays. However, the same cannot be said about the power forward position, as you should spend money at that position for good players. Either spend the big bucks on De
Marcus Cousins or go for a cheaper option (which I find myself doing tonight) by not spending on one of the other top centers. The road to victory begins now.
Point Guards
Player | Team | DraftKings | Fanduel | Comments |
Damian Lillard | Blazers | 7,900 | 8,600 | Balling out by producing 45+ FP in 3 out of the past 4 games. |
Jeff Teague | Hawks | 7,000 | 7,500 | Nothing special, but consistent producer for the price |
Darren Collison | Kings | 5,900 | 6,500 | Love the price on DK for a player averaging 37 FP at home |
Aaron Brooks | Bulls | 3,000 | 4,400 | Best punt play with D-Rose sitting (again) |

Jamal Crawford | Clippsers | 5,300 | 5,800 | Cheap price tag for a player of his caliber |

Gordon Hayward | Jazz | 7,100 | 7,900 | If K. Leonard sits than going Hayward over R.Gay if I'm spending at SF |
