Daily Fantasy NBA Lineup Picks for FanDuel (12/11/16) - DFS Basketball Advice

Tonight, there are six games to choose from starting at 6:00 PM EST, so make sure to get those lineups in an hour early. The New York Knicks play the Los Angeles Lakers in what should be a very high-scoring, offensive showdown. Even more so, the Minnesota Timberwolves face off against the Golden State Warriors. That game is going to eclipse 110 points for both teams. Attack, as much as possible.

These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 12/11/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on FanDuel. I think it is more important to highlight value plays so I try to include my most confident value picks. I advise the players in my lineup so if it all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you. Let' get rolling.

Editor's Note: New users that sign up on FantasyAces, make a $20 deposit, and enter any game will receive BOTH our full season NBA and NFL Premium Passes for free, a $119.99 value. Just email [email protected] with your new FantasyAces username - and boom, that's it! We will email you with your Premium Passes.

 

FanDuel DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook - PG, vs BOS ($12,600) 

Russell Westbrook posted over 50 fantasy points against the Houston Rockets, barely reaching the triple-double. Amazingly, that is his worst performance in his last 11 games. He gets a decent matchup against the Boston Celtics tonight, and he has been averaging a triple-double per game. In fact, he has a triple-double in seven straight games, only one assist away from making that number larger. His price tag is very high right now, but he is well worth it. Use Westbrook in all leagues.

Lou Williams - SG, vs NYK ($6,300)

Without Russell Westbrook in the picture, Lou Williams is actually the best guard option on the board tonight. He gets a fantastic matchup against the New York Knicks, and he should be able to take advantage of that. In his last game, he posted over 40 fantasy points, scoring 10 times from the field for 35 points. He struggled against the Houston Rockets, but in his two games prior to that, he posted 54.7 and 45.9 fantasy points. He is going to continue to see big minutes for the Los Angeles Lakers until he cools down. His price tag is beyond reasonable. Start every lineup with Westbrook and Williams tonight.

Also Consider: Zach LaVine - SG, vs GSW ($6,100)

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Anthony Davis - PF, at PHX ($12,200)

So, Russell Westbrook just isn't cutting it? Anthony Davis can fill that void. He has over 55 fantasy points in three of his last five games, and against the Los Angeles Lakers, he posted over 75 fantasy points in 41 minutes. Davis has huge upside, but he is not nearly as consistent as Westbrook. The Phoenix Suns are going to push the pace of this game, making Davis even better tonight. It will be nearly impossible to roster both Westbrook and Davis, so this is a decision fantasy owners will have to make. It is a win-win situation, really.

Kristaps Porzingis - PF, at LAL ($7,400)

Kristaps Porzingis has been playing well of recent, and he should be able to take advantage of his great matchup tonight against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are an uptempo team that happens to be rather terrible at defense. Porzingis is a scorer. He has a double-double in three of his last four games, and he has yet to hit his ceiling. The New York Knicks young star is only getting better. He has over 40 fantasy points in two of his last seven games, so the upside is there. Porzingis is better suited for tournaments tonight.

Also Consider:  Tobias Harris - PF, vs PHI ($6,000) 

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Andre Drummond - C, vs PHI ($8,400) 

Andre Drummond has been playing well of recent, posting 49.4 and 54.5 fantasy points in his last two games, and he should have no issues dominating the Philadelphia 76ers tonight. Drummond is the best center option on the board without question. His upside is tremendous, and he has actually been much more consistent this season. He is not the best cash game option, but he does have over 40 fantasy points in six straight games now. Drummond's price tag will fit into most lineups, but value plays are needed.

Also Consider: Jahlil Okafor - C, at DET ($4,900)
