Well, it is officially December. Christmas is in the air, and  fantasy owners could use a little bit of extra money to buy their loved ones some presents. This article can help with that. It is a short six-game slate tonight, so finding value, as always, is important. Read on to find the best plays at each of the five FanDuel positions.

These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 12/1/16. Let's do this.

FanDuel DFS Guards

James Harden - SG, at GSW ($11,300)

James Harden is obviously a top option tonight, as he gets a great matchup against the uptempo Golden State Warriors. The Warriors are going to push the pace of the game, and as long as the Houston Rockets keep it close, this should be a great game to attack from a fantasy perspective. Harden has over 50 fantasy points in four of his last six games, and he should eclipse that mark again tonight. It is difficult to find anyone with triple-double potential on tonight's slate, which makes Harden an important starting point to any lineup. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.

Klay Thompson - SG, vs HOU ($6,100)

Speaking of the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets game, Klay Thompson is available tonight. He has over 30 fantasy points in four of his last seven games, and his upside is through the roof. He is no longer the top scoring option next to Stephen Curry on the Warriors' offense, but when he gets top from beyond the arc, he is going to continue to shoot until he cools down. His price tag is very reasonable on FanDuel, so fire him up in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.

Also Consider: Andrew Harrison - PG, vs ORL ($3,900)

FanDuel DFS Forwards

LeBron James - SF, vs LAC ($9,700)

LeBron James struggled in his last game, which was against the Milwaukee Bucks, but he should be able to bounce back tonight against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Clippers are going to keep this game close, which means that James is going to play hard the entire game. He tends to slack off when the game gets away from his opponents. In his last six games, he has over 50 fantasy points in three of them. He is a fantastic tournament option, and he can also be used in 50/50 contests. His price tag is still not over $10,000.

JaMychal Green - PF, vs ORL ($4,400)

Despite a poor performance in his last outing, which was against the Charlotte Hornets, Green has been playing great for the Memphis Grizzlies. He has over 20 fantasy points in six straight contests. He is playing around 30-35 minutes per game right now, so the opportunity to produce is definitely there. The Orlando Magic are not a solid defensive team, and the Grizzlies need to find new scoring options. One of those options will likely be Green. Use him in all leagues tonight.

Also Consider: Troy Williams - SF, vs ORL ($3,700)

FanDuel DFS Centers

Marc Gasol - C, vs ORL, $7,000)

Another one of those scoring options that the Memphis Grizzlies need will be Marc Gasol. He is the best healthy scoring option on the team right now. In his last game, he only posted 31.1 fantasy points in 32 minutes, but he has over 40 fantasy points in two of his last four games. He is a fantastic tournament option tonight for a reasonable price tag. The center position has a few solid options for 50/50 contests as well. Clint Capela and Hassan Whiteside are very consistent and reliable players.

Also Consider: Clint Capela - C, at GSW ($5,900)
