Daily Fantasy NBA Lineup Picks for FanDuel (11/29/16) - DFS Basketball Advice

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

It is another short slate tonight, making those value plays even more important. LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and James Harden are going to be difficult to fit into those lineups, but it has to happen. Finding a couple of cheaper options is essential to winning tonight. Those options are listed below, along with a couple of more expensive options.

These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/29/16. I try to only advise players I believe will outperform expectations and the players I advise are players in my lineup so if it all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you. Let's get rolling...

FanDuel DFS Guards

Giannis Antetokounmpo - PG, vs CLE ($10,000)

Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best tournament options on the board tonight at the point guard position. He gets a good matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers, in what should be a relatively close game. In his last four games, Alphabet has over 35 fantasy points in all games, over 45 in three, over 50 in two, and 60 in one. It was against the Orlando Magic that he posted 60 fantasy points, and he did it in only 39 minutes. He plays around 35-40 minutes per game, so his upside is definitely always there. Use him in tournaments only.

J.J. Redick - SG, at BKN ($4,300)

JJ Redick has been playing well of recent for the Los Angeles Clippers, and he is a great tournament and 50/50 contest option tonight against the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets are one of the worst defensive teams in the league, and Redick has over 20 fantasy points in eight of his last 10 games. He struggled against the Indiana Pacers, but he should be able to bounce back without too much trouble. Regardless of his recent struggles over his last three games, continue to use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments at his price tag.

Also Consider: Jose Calderon - PG, at NOP ($3,500)

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

LeBron James - SF, at MIL ($10,100)

If the Milwaukee Bucks keep this game close, which is possible, LeBron James is going to have another big game. He has over 50 fantasy points in three of his last four games. Against the Portland Trailblazers, he posted over 65 fantasy points in 38 minutes. If he decides to take over the game, he can triple-double without a problem. When he decides to play passive, he struggles, as far as fantasy is concerned. The Bucks should keep it close enough to keep James' interest. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments, as his price tag is very reasonable right now.

Blake Griffin - PF, at BKN ($9,000)

Blake Griffin has a ton of upside tonight against the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets are a great team to pick on, as they struggle defensively against all positions. Griffin has over 40 fantasy points in four of his last seven games. Against the Sacramento Kings, he posted over 50 fantasy points in 37 minutes. While his upside is not as great as players like Anthony Davis and LeBron James, it does not have to be because his price tag is slightly lower. He is shooting at least 15 times per game, and he contributes with rebounds and assists, as well. Use him in tournaments only, as he has struggled slightly over his last three games.

Also Consider: Jon Leuer - PF, at CHA ($4,400)

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Andre Drummond - C, at CHA ($8,100)

Andre Drummond has the highest upside of any center on the board tonight. Against the Miami Heat, he posted a huge double-double. With 53.5 fantasy points in 26 minutes, his upside is abundantly clear. The Charlotte Hornets are not great defensively, but Drummond is simply not consistent enough to use him in 50/50 contests. He is a tournament only option. There are better cash game options available, such as DeAndre Jordan. Jordan does not have Drummond's upside, though.

Also Consider: Timofey Mozgov - C, at NOP ($3,500)
