DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/21/18): NBA DFS Lineups

We have an eight game slate and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same lineup.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 3/21/18.

These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options, to lower-priced players and value picks on DraftKings. Feel free to stop by the Hoops Chat Room or on Twitter @DFS_Tom, let's get rolling.

DraftKings DFS Guards

Kemba Walker - PG, CHA @ BKN (DK - $8,700)

Walker is up against the Nets, who are giving up 48 DraftKings points per game to point guards, putting him in a good spot. He comes in with a usage rate sitting at 27%, along with averaging 1.09 fantasy points per minute this season. Walker is coming off a massive 50 DK point game, which shouldn't be a surprise, since Batum is out with an injury, so a bit more of the offense should fall to Walker. This game has an over-under set at 223 points, with it being a pick'em, so we are in for a close and high scoring game, exactly what you want for DFS.

Khris Middleton - SG, MIL vs LAC (DK - $7,700)

Middleton is one of the most consistent players in NBA DFS, and can often go overlooked a bit sometimes. He has averaged 39 DraftKings points over his last five games, and is now up against the Clippers, who are giving up 44 DK points per game to shooting guards, which is second worst in the league. Middleton has taken 14 or more field goal attempts in seven of his last 10 games, and with this game having an over-under of 226 points, he will certainly get plenty of chances to rack up the points.

DraftKings DFS Forwards

DeMarre Carroll - SF, BKN vs CHA (DK - $5,900)

Carroll has been playing very well recently, and his price has barely increase, so a nice time to jump on him while he is hot. He has scored 33 or more DraftKings points in three straight games, and now up against the Hornets who are giving up 42 DK points per game to small forwards, which is fifth worst in the league. Carroll has two double-doubles in his last three games, so some nice tournament upside from him, in what should be a high scoring game, as the over-under is set at 223 points.

Bam Adebayo - PF, MIA vs NY (DK - $4,900)

Adebayo is likely to ge the start again tonight, since Hassan Whiteside has already been ruled out for this game. He offers a bit of salary relief, which is always good on a slate this size to help you get up to the top players. He has scored 20 DraftKings points or more in four straight games, and has taken nine or more field goal attempts in four straight games as well. Adebayo and the Heat are up against the Knicks, who are tanking to the bottom, so this should be a winnable game for the Heat who are holding down a playoff spot.

DraftKings DFS Centers

DeAndre Jordan - C, LAC @ MIL (DK - $

Jordan has six double-doubles in his last 10 games, and is in a spot to put one up tonight due to the favorable matchup. He is up against the Bucks, who are giving up 54 DraftKings points per game to centers, which is second worst in the league. Jordan is averaging 1.28 fantasy points per minute, and has big time tournament upside with his rebounding ability, as he has 15 or more in each of his last 10 games. He won't create his own offense, but with this game having an over-under of 226 points, plenty of extra touches on the ball.
