Hopefully, everyone had a fantastic week that was filled with much fantasy success. Let's finish out the week strong and get to work on a Sunday that features five NBA games.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 12/3/17.
The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on FanDuel. Let's get started. Good luck!

DFS Guards to Consider
James Harden - SG, @ LAL ($12,200)
Let's just get the obvious out of the way and just throw James Harden into the mix. I won't bore you with stats because at this point, its really unnecessary. The guy is a stud and should put a hurting on those little punk kids in Los Angeles.
Stephen Curry - PG, @ MIA ($9,900)
With the matchup between Golden State and Miami expected to be a shootout, Stephen Curry comes to mind. Though he is considered a game-time decision as a result of a hand issue that kept him out a few games ago, he was able to play during the team's last two outings against Los Angeles and Orlando. However, monitor his progress before opening tip but if he is good to go, he has the potential to light up the Heat in what should be a high-scoring affair.
Chris Paul - PG, @ LAL ($8,400)
Chris Paul is a guy who has the potential to put up a ton of fantasy points on Sunday against a Lakers team that is giving up 52 fantasy points to opposing points guards over the past five contests. Priced at only $8,400, Paul would need only 42 fantasy points to hit the illustrious five times value mark, something that could easily happen.
Other DFS Guards to Consider: Elfrid Payton, Austin Rivers, Patrick McCaw (if Stephen Curry is out)
DFS Forwards to Consider
Jimmy Butler - SF, vs. LAC ($8,700)
Though he is listed as a small forward on FanDuel, he has been starting at the two this season. The Clippers have given up a league-worst 67.9 fantasy points to opposing off guards over the past five outings meaning that it would be hard to justify not having Butler in your lineup on Sunday.
Wesley Johnson - SF @ MIN ($5,100)
With Blake Griffin and Danilo Gallinari out of the equation, Wesley Johnson has been seeing some extra minutes rolling with the starting unit. He isn't going to score a ton of fantasy points but would need around 26 to hit the five times value mark, which is ultimately what we are looking for here. That could easily happen considering the Timberwolves have been having issues defending the two all season. Keep him in mind if you are strapped for cash.
Taj Gibson - PF, vs. LAC ($5,000)
Every time I have Taj Gibson in my lineup, he craps the bed. Not only does he crap the bed, I change the sheets and he does the same thing the next night. I am hoping he has his bowel issues under control because I'm going to be using him again against a Clippers team that does not have Blake Griffin.
Other DFS Forwards to Consider: Ryan Anderson, Aaron Gordon, Kevin Durant, Omri Casspi (if Andre Iguodala is out), Kelly Olynyk, Montrezl Harrell
DFS Centers to Consider
DeAndre Jordan - C, @ MIN ($7,500)
DeAndre Jordan has been a monster as of late, especially on the glass where he has pulled down at least 16 boards in four out of the last five games. With Minnesota giving up a least 10 boards per game to opposing big men, why not give Jordan a shot to work his magic.
Other DFS Centers to Consider: Karl-Anthony Towns, Steven Adams, Brook Lopez, Kyle O'Quinn (if Kristaps Porzingis is out)
