I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and was able to give/receive everything they wanted! Hopefully I can help you recoup some of the money you spent on others yesterday on the slate tonight.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/26/17. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options, and value plays on DraftKings.

Please feel free to follow me on Twitter @BalesSJustin. Let's get started!

DraftKings DFS Guards

Austin Rivers - PG/SG, vs SAC ($6,600)

Rivers is in an interesting spot tonight. He is a cheaper alternative to Williams, who will likely be the higher owned guard. Rivers has been heating up recently, though, scoring 48.75, 54, and 35.5 fantasy points in his last three games. He has taken over the offense, averaging 31.7 points per game over that span. He is a player that can also add peripheral stats to his line on a nightly basis, as well. He is a high upside option that could go a bit overlooked tonight.

Kobi Simmons - SG, at PHX ($3,000)

It was a bit of a surprise that Simmons entered the draft last season, but he is finally getting his chance in the NBA. He played 25 minutes in the Grizzlies last game, and he is expected to do that again tonight. In that game, he scored six points with four rebounds, three assists, and one block. He is the minimum price, and has much more upside than he has shown this season. He can be locked into all leagues as a consistent salary relief option that comes with tremendous upside for his price.

Other DraftKings DFS Guards to Consider: Tyreke Evans, Lou Williams, Lance Stephenson, Milos Teodosic, Wayne Ellington

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson - SF/PF, at SA ($5,900)

Hollis-Jefferson has looked outstanding since the Trevor Booker trade. He has scored between 30 and 50 fantasy points in eight of his last 10 games, while averaging 14.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game over the last 10 days. Hollis-Jefferson likely had his price drop because of the matchup agains the San Antonio Spurs, but they have not been the elite defense many people were expecting this season. RHJ can be used in all leagues until his price increases.

Bismack Biyombo - PF/C, at MIA ($3,800)

Biyombo will likely be the highest owned player on the slate tonight, and for good reason. Nikola Vucevic recently suffered an injury, and Biyombo will likely be thrust into big minutes tonight. On the season, he is averaging 9.7 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks per-36 minutes. He needed only 16 minutes to score 17.75 fantasy points against the Miami Heat earlier this season, and he will likely see upwards of 30 minutes tonight. Biyombo will likely easily exceed value tonight, making him an "avoid at your own risk" type of play.

Other DraftKings DFS Forwards to Consider: James Ennis, Harrison Barnes, Serge Ibaka, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Caris LeVert

DraftKings DFS Centers

Alex Len - PF/C, vs MEM ($5,300)

Len is the definition of a boom or bust option. He can score fantasy points in a hurry, but he is stuck in a time share at center for the Suns. Over the last 10 days, he is averaging 1.32 fantasy points per minute. Over that span, he has scored anywhere from 14 to 50.25 fantasy points, putting his volatility on full display. He comes with a reasonable price tag, but should strictly be used in tournaments on this slate.

Other DraftKings DFS Centers to Consider: Derrick Favors, Willie Cauley-Stein, John Henson
