DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/11/17)

Hopefully, everyone had a fantastic weekend. If you lost in your fantasy football league's playoffs, sorry to hear that, better luck next season. If you didn't, good for you because my teams sucked. In any event, now that some of us have been put out of respective miseries, we can now focus on hoops!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/11/17.

If you have any questions or comments, drop me a message on Twitter @Den_Clausen. Let's get started!

 

DFS Guards to Consider

James Harden - PG/SG, vs. NOP ($11,600)

Anytime James Harden is playing, he should be in everyone's lineup. Even if he is playing with a broken toe and the Bubonic plague, he should be in everyone's lineup. There really isn't a time when he shouldn't be in everyone's lineup because the guy is an animal. At 32 points and nearly 10 assists per game, Harden is someone who rarely has a rough showing. He will be going up against a Pelicans team that is allowing opposing 33 points per game to opposing two guards. That average will likely go up after tonight.

DeMar DeRozan - SG/SF @ LAC ($8,200)

The Clippers are allowing 35 points per game to shooting guards this season, giving DeMar DeRozan a favorable opportunity to put up some fantasy points. While the core guys in Toronto like Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka has been semi-inconsistent and underperforming, DeRozan continues to produce efficient outings on a routine basis.

Other DFS Guards to Consider: Chris Paul, Tyreke Evans, Damian Lillard, Russell Westbrook, Klay Thompson, Lou Williams. Nikola Mirotic, Al-Farouq Aminu, Danilo Gallinari

 

DFS Forwards to Consider

Kevin Durant - SF/PF vs. POR ($10,900)

With Steph Curry out of the equation, Kevin Durant has been crushing it, accumulating at least 72 fantasy points in each of his last two outings. With Curry still hurt and Portland allowing opposing small forwards to shoot 50 percent from the field, you have to keep rolling with Durant. The real challenge is if you will be able to have both him and James Harden in the same lineup and have enough to fill out the other spots. Good luck with that.

Ryan Anderson - PF, vs. NOP ($4,600)

With Kevin Durant and James Harden both looking extremely good on Monday night, we have to cut corners somewhere and that is where Ryan Anderson comes in. I'm aware that he is very inconsistent but with the Pelicans giving up the third-most amount of three-pointers to opposing fours, why not give him a shot, especially considering that this should be the highest-scoring game on the slate.

Other DFS Forwards to Consider: Kelly Olynyk, Draymond Green (if he plays), Serge Ibaka, Nikola Mirotic, Al-Farouq Aminu, Danilo Gallinari

 

DFS Centers to Consider

DeAndre Jordan C, vs. TOR ($7,300)

Toronto hasn't been doing very well up front this season. With Serge Ibaka being a shell of his former self to Jonas Valanciunas falling out of favor with Dwane Casey to the kids Jakob Poeltl and Pascal Siakam being barely old enough to drink (in Canada), things aren't going so well. DeAndre Jordan will likely put a hurting on the Raptors, especially since they are allowing a league-worst 69 percent field goal percentage to opposing big men.

Other DFS Centers to Consider: Marc Gasol
