There are 10 games on the slate tonight which means a ton of options for daily fantasy. I am specifically interested in two matchups; Washington Wizards versus Detroit Pistons and Miami Heat versus Los Angeles Clippers.

It's important to pay attention to injuries, those recurring and new, and note who has seen a boost in playing time and production. Read on for the best daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel (12/16/16). The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on FanDuel. Good luck, RotoBallers.

FanDuel DFS Guards

John Wall - PG, vs DET ($9,800) 

John Wall's price keeps jumping, and for good reason. He hasn't play less than 36 minutes in any game since the middle of November, and has posted eight double-doubles over that span (13 games). Wall is coming off a solid 53.2 fantasy point performance on FanDuel and heads into what should be a competitive matchup against Reggie Jackson and Ish Smith. Wall has been almost automatic for 40 fantasy points, and can easily break out for well over 50.

Avery Bradley - SG, vs CHA ($7,200) 

As long as Isaiah Thomas continues to miss action, it would be wise to roster Avery Bradley. In four games without Thomas, Bradley has played 30-plus minutes in each and has posted fantasy showings of 49, 27.8, 24, and 35.3. Thomas is a game time decision as he continues to battle with a lingering groin injury. Although, even if Boston's starting point guard does start, Bradley still makes for a great play at the two guard position. I like his matchup against another team in the Eastern Conference that moves the ball well.

Also Consider: Lou Williams - SG, @ PHI ($5,600)

FanDuel DFS Forwards

James Johnson - SF, vs LAC ($4,900) 

James Johnson is a solid value option at the three spot that will help free up cap space. The Miami Heat have been plagued by injuries of late, and while they are slowly getting healthier, Johnson continues to find himself getting minutes, and continues to produce for FanDuel. Over his last two games, Johnson his scored 14 points in each, dropping 25.6 and 22.5 fantasy points; solid, and helpful, for his price. Johnson too missed some games recently but has looked healthy in his role with Miami's second unit.

Jabari Parker - PF, @ CHI ($6,300) 

Jabari Parker is coming off one of his best showings of the season as he heads into Milwaukee's second straight game against the Chicago Bulls. Parker score 28 points, grabbed five rebounds, dished out three assists, and tallied two steals in Thursday night's win against the aforementioned Bulls. Parker will look to do the same tonight now that the matchup shifts to the Windy City. Parker is still very affordable for what he's capable of doing on the court and for daily fantasy.

Also Consider: Blake Griffin - PF, @ MIA ($8,900)

FanDuel DFS Centers

Hassan Whiteside - C, vs LAC ($9,200) 

I'm really excited about this game. The Los Angeles Clippers are loaded with talent while we should see plenty of fast-paced play between Chris Paul and Goran Dragic. Hassan Whiteside will do battle with Blake Griffin and/or DeAndre Jordan. My guess is that he's up for the challenge as not many have been able to slow the big man down this season. His price isn't crazy expensive like DeMarcus Cousins' and has posted two straight double-doubles, including a crazy 22-rebound performance in his last. We can always count on Whiteside to post double-digit rebounds, but he sometimes throws up a dud and scores only eight or nine points. I'm not worried about that tonight.

Also Consider: Marc Gasol - C, vs SAC ($8,800)
