Daily Fantasy NBA Lineup Picks For FanDuel (1/24/17) - DFS Basketball Advice

There are a solid six games to choose from tonight. The Toronto Raptors and San Antonio Spurs are set to square off in what should be a great game to watch. With all the Spurs current injuries, it is a great game to target, as well.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 1/24/17. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays on FanDuel. Let's get rolling.

Editor's Note: New users that sign up on FantasyAces, make a $20 deposit, and enter any game will receive our full season NBA Premium Pass for free AND ALSO one month free of our industry-leading NBA DFS Lineup Optimizer/Generator for free, a combined $99.99 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

Kyle Lowry - PG, vs SAS ($8,400)

Kyle Lowry is starting to look a lot more like a tournament option, and not so much like a cash game option, of recent. In his last two games, he has under 35 fantasy points in both of them. Granted, he has over 40 fantasy points in three of his last seven games, but that is not the production fantasy owners are used to from Lowry. Tonight, however, he gets a great matchup against an injured San Antonio Spurs squad. Lowry should be able to return to his 40-plus fantasy point potential, helping the Raptors pick up a victory against one of the best teams in the league. Roster him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments. If he flops again, blacklist him for a week.

Zach LaVine - SG, at PHX ($6,200) 

Zach LaVine struggled heavily in his last outing, which was against the Denver Nuggets. He posted under 10 fantasy points in 33 minutes. That likely has him atop quite a few fantasy owners' blacklists, but with a great matchup tonight against the Phoenix Suns, it is going to be hard to keep him there. He posted over 40 fantasy points a couple games ago, and while he has been struggling of recent, he has the potential to end this slump in any game. This should be a very uptempo game, and LaVine is worth consideration in tournaments.

 

Also Consider: Austin Rivers - PG, at PHI ($5,400) 

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Markieff Morris - PF, vs BOS ($6,400) 

Markieff Morris has been playing far too well of recent to pass on him in 50/50 contests or tournaments. Over his last four games, he has over 35 fantasy points in three of them. The Boston Celtics are solid defensively, but the Washington Wizards shouldn't struggle to score. Morris is currently a huge part of that offense, and he will continue to take double-digit shot attempts tonight. Roster him in all leagues without hesitation.

David Lee - PF, at TOR ($5,100) 

David Lee is another near must-play tonight in daily fantasy basketball. The Toronto Raptors are great defensively, but Lee has been seeing around 30-35 minutes per game for the San Antonio Spurs of recent, and his price tag is only starting to adjust. With over 30 fantasy points in two consecutive games now, it is safe to roster the Spurs aging forward in all lineups.

 

Also Consider:  Kenneth Faried - PF, vs UTA ($5,000) 

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Joel Embiid - C, vs LAC ($8,500) 

Joel Embiid is one of the best centers in the league, and this is technically his rookie season. In his last five games, he has over 40 fantasy points in all of them. Tonight, he gets a great matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers and DeAndre Jordan. Jordan is also worth consideration in tournaments, but Embiid has better defensive skills, so rostering the Philadelphia 76er in both 50/50 contests and tournaments is the better move for only $100 more.

 

Also Consider: DeAndre Jordan - C, at PHI ($8,400)
