Today is the last day of the NBA regular season! There are quite a few value options to choose from tonight, as quite a few starters are taking the night off. Let's sort this mess out. Rest assured, we'll be pumping out DFS content all during the playoffs as well.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for Yahoo on 4/12/17. 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 @thedominatordfs.

Yahoo DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook - PG, vs DEN ($66)

Russell Westbrook took a game off yesterday, which happened to be his first missed game of the season. If that doesn't warrant some type of conversation when discussing the MVP award, I've lost all hope for humanity. Westbrook posted over 85 fantasy points in his last game, which happened to be against the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets are horrible defensively, but keep games close. Westbrook is a triple-double machine, and since a majority of expensive players are taking the night off, he is almost a must play, even though his price tag is far too high right now.

Jamal Murray - PG, at OKC ($13)

Speaking of the Denver Nuggets, Jamal Murray is expected to see around 35 minutes on the court tonight. If that happens, it is hard to imagine a scenario where he does not hit value. Murray is averaging 0.8 fantasy points per minute on the court, and his price tag is very low on Yahoo. In his last three games, he has over 25 fantasy points in two of them, and against the New Orleans Pelicans, he posted over 40 fantasy points in 38 minutes. The consistency and upside are both there. Roster him in all leagues.

Also Consider - Justin Holiday - SG, vs PHI ($10)

Yahoo DFS Forwards 

Josh Richardson - SF, vs WAS ($16)

Josh Richardson has ridiculous upside tonight against the uptempo, defenseless Washington Wizards' squad. He is going to play close to 40 minutes, and in his last four games, he has over 25 fantasy points in all of them, over 35 fantasy points in two, and over 40 fantasy points in his last game, which was against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Richardson is far too cheap on Yahoo right now. Take advantage of his lower price tag, which will help to roster Russell Westbrook, and possibly, James Harden in the same lineup.

Caris LeVert - SF, at CHI ($10)

The Brooklyn Nets are out of playoff contention. Caris LeVert is one of their better younger players, so he should see around 30 minutes of action tonight. He has over 20 fantasy points in four consecutive games now, so the upside is there. He should also see more shot opportunities, seeing as this is his last game to prove him and the game is worthless. Expect LeVert to pick up the pace and attempt to impress the Nets' staff. He has nothing to lose, and neither do fantasy owners, as his price tag is as low as possible.

Also Consider - Spencer Dinwiddie - SF, at CHI ($10)

Yahoo DFS Centers

Boban Marjanovic - C, at ORL ($12)

It is insane that Yahoo has yet to up the price tag of Boban Marjanovic. In his last game, which was against the Washington Wizards, he did not look great, but he posted 17.6 fantasy points in 20 minutes on the court. In his two games prior, he posted 27 and 44.4 fantasy points in 23 and 28 minutes. He will play as many minutes as he can handle tonight against the Orlando Magic. His upside is as high as any center option on the board tonight. Roster him in tournaments without hesitation. In cash games, he is still worth consideration, but he comes with a tiny little bit of risk.

Also Consider - Dwight Powell - C, at MEM ($10)
