DraftKings and FanDuel Guards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks
Stephen Curry - PG, GS @ DAL ($10,700 DK, $11,200 FD)
Steph has actually cumulatively outscored Luka Doncic over the last 4 games, so considering the savings, I think Steph is the way to start lineups tonight. With the night's highest implied total (227 at the time of writing), this game will be popular for all the right reasons.
Jalen Brunson - PG, NYK @ DETC ($7,700 DK, $8,600 FD)
Brunson has posted 45+ DK points in 3 straight games and somehow is still priced under $8,000! The Pistons are 26th vs opposing PGs so far this year. This looks like a smash spot for Brunson who has really elevated his game over the past month for the Knicks.
Terance Mann - PG/SG, LAC @ POR ($4,800 DK, $5,500 FD)
The Clippers provide all the value a slate could ask for. With Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and Luke Kennard all out, that's about 40-50 shots vacated. Mann comes into tonight with 3 straight games of 28+ DK points, and it certainly seems he's in line for another huge workload. Opportunity is king, and identifying the opportunity available for the Clippers tonight is the key to this slate.
Others to consider: Luka Doncic ($12,600 DK, $12,000 FD), Amir Coffey ($3,900 DK, $3,900 FD)

DraftKings and FanDuel Forwards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks
Jerami Grant - PF, POR vs LAC ($7,300 DK, $8,200 FD)
It's a slow night at the office when Jerami Grant is the second-highest-priced option on the slate. Grant has played 40+ minutes in back-to-back games and has a couple of 50+ fantasy points games under his belt this month. I don't think he's a super popular play, so if you're playing GPPs, he's worth a look.
Norman Powell - SG/SF, LAC @ POR ($5,400 DK, $6,000 FD)
Another Clipper who will continue to see extended minutes with their stars hurt, Powell will look to continue his hot streak. He's posted 30+ fantasy points in 4 of the Clippers' last 5 games and should have every opportunity to do so again tonight. Powell's positional listing as SG/SF is also very interesting as it makes a lot of different builds work. As a flexible roster piece with solid 6-7x ROI potential, I'll be firing up Powell in my lineups.
Others to consider: Andrew Wiggins ($6,800 DK, $8,000 FD), Justise Winslow ($4,700 DK, $5,200 FD)
DraftKings and FanDuel Centers - NBA DFS Lineup Picks
Jusuf Nurkic - C, POR vs LAC ($7,200 DK, $6,800 FD)
Nurkic has stepped up during the absence of Damian Lillard. He has 4 straight games with 35+ DK points, and 6 straight games scoring in double figures. I think he has the best floor/ceiling combo of all the centers tonight and makes for a great GPP play. A lot of people will be drawn to Ivica Zubac given the combination of his eruption performance on Sunday and the Clippers' injuries, which I think only makes a stronger case for Nurkic.
Mitchell Robinson - C, NYK @ DET ($4,600 DK, $5,700 FD)
Robinson has been working his way back from a knee injury, and he seems to have found his sea legs. He's scored 25.5 and 34.75 DK points in his last two games while playing 23 and 32 minutes, and also recording 7 blocks between the two games. He catches a below-average Detroit interior defense and should be a great play for his price tag.
Others to consider: Jalen Duren (only if one of Marvin Bagley or Isaiah Stewart doesn't play) ($3,800 DK, $4,800 FD)
