DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 2/19/16

By Keith Allison from Hanover, MD, USA (LeBron James) [CC BY-SA 2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

It was a fairly uneventful trade deadline, but at least we got to see that ridiculous dunk by Aaron Gordon this last weekend. We all know which one I'm talking about.

In this article, I will be providing you with daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/19/16. The DFS picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays.

Without wasting anymore time, let's get down to it!

DraftKings DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook (vs IND, $11,100)

Westbrook’s price is out of control, but he has to be considered any time he steps on the court. He has scored between 50 and 80 fantasy points in consecutive games, and he’s a triple double every night. He gets a great matchup against the Pacers, who have been playing at a much faster pace this season. They have been an average defense against the point guard, and Westbrook should have no problems scoring at will tonight. He can be used in all leagues.

Will Barton (at SAC, $5,500)

Barton has proven all season that he has tremendous upside, but he has struggled with consistency. That has a lot to do with his inconsistent minutes, as he’s averaging over 1.0 fantasy point per minute this season. He gets a great matchup against the Kings, who have really struggled against scorers this season, and Barton has shown a tremendous ability to score the ball. He is priced entirely too cheap, as he’ll likely continue to be a big part of the Nuggets offense, and he has more than enough upside for GPPs tonight.

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Anthony Davis (vs PHI, $9,700)

Davis has really been struggling at times this season, but his price and matchup are too good to pass on. The Sixers have been one of the worst defenses in the NBA this season, and they don’t have anyone that is going to be able to contain Davis. The Brow has tremendous upside, as he recently scored 62 fantasy points in a game, and he’s likely going to be priced over $10k soon. He certainly comes with a bit of risk, but he is one of the best GPP options on the slate tonight.

Jon Leuer (vs HOU, $4,000)

Leuer is a bit of a wildcard for the Suns, as he was playing extremely well earlier in the season, but he essentially lost all of his minutes recently. He should regain most of those minutes, as the Suns recently traded Markieff Morris to the Wizards. Leuer will likely slide into the starting lineup, and he has great upside when given the minutes. If he’s playing 25 minutes per night, $4k is entirely too cheap for his skill. That’s a bit of a question mark, though, as no one really knows what the Suns are going to do. My guess is that he’ll play more than enough minutes to hit value tonight, but he’s best suited for GPPs until his role is a bit clearer.

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Brook Lopez (vs NY, $7,300)

BroLo gets a great matchup against his little brother, RoLo, tonight. He has dominated the Knicks twice this season, averaging 20.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.5 steals per game. He shouldn’t have any problems dominating his brother, as he has done his entire NBA career. Lopez isn’t quite as expensive as some of the elite options, but he does have elite upside. Lopez comes with a bit of risk, but he’s a great GPP option for his price tag.

Jared Sullinger (at UTA, $5,500)

Kelly Olynyk is going to miss at least the next two weeks, which will open up a few minutes for some of the other Boston big men. It’s anyone’s guess at who will get the minutes, but I would be surprised if Sully didn’t at least 25-30 minutes tonight. He has been outstanding when given big minutes this season, and he has a great chance to show off his skills with Olynyk injured. He gets a tough matchup against the Jazz, but Sully is the type of athletic center that should give Gobert some trouble tonight.
