Happy Tuesday RotoBallers! Tonight we've got a solid 6-game slate, headlined by the TNT doubleheader. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, some exceptions may apply, depending on the size of the slate.

This article will provide you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 2/7/23. Remember to monitor NBA injury news and our awesome new NBA injuries report tool as the slate can completely change before lineups lock.

DraftKings and FanDuel Guards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - PG/SG, OKC @ LAL ($10,800 DK, $10,400 FD)

Shai continues to rack up big fantasy numbers, largely led by big scoring nights. He's scored 30+ points in 6 of his last 7 games, posting only one fantasy score below 50. Tonight he gets the Lakers' leaky perimeter defense in a game that has a 237 points total; the highest total on the slate. Recently named an All-Star, SGA will have another chance to show out on a big stage in a primetime game.

Cameron Thomas - PG/SG, BKN vs PHX ($5,200 DK, $6,500 FD)

Thomas saw his price spike after dropping 44 in 29 minutes, and then he went off again Monday night for 47, but this time pricing had already been set for tonight's slate so we get him at a massive discount relative to opportunity. Thomas has clearly taken over as the top offensive option in the Nets' current state due to injuries. In cash games, I don't think you can fade him, but if you're playing GPP, fading him provides immense leverage.

Ayo Dosunmu - PG, CHI @ MEM ($4,300 DK, $4,400 FD)

In the wake of Alex Caruso's injury, Dosunmu seems to have edged out Coby White for picking up the slack. Dosunmu has played 27+ minutes and scored 20+ DK points in 4 straight games, all as a starter.

Others to consider: Ja Morant ($10,300 DK, $10,400 FD), Royce O'Neal ($5,800 DK, $5,800 FD)

DraftKings and FanDuel Forwards - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

LeBron James - SF, LAL vs OKC ($11,200 DK, $10,300 FD)

It's no secret that LeBron is 36 points away from taking the crown as the NBA's All-Time leading scorer from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and I fully expect LeBron to go all out for the record tonight. As I mentioned earlier; this game has the highest total on the slate, and I think in cash games you should definitely be playing at least one of LeBron/SGA, if not both.

Jaren Jackson Jr - SF, MEM vs CHI ($7,300 DK, $7,800 FD)

Jackson has been a one-man (or two-man if you count the Grizzlies' home scorekeeper) wrecking crew on defense lately, posting 15 blocks total in his last 3 games. That average of 5 coincides with the average number of blocked shots the Bulls suffer per game, tied for the 6th-worst in the NBA. JJJ is trying to put together a run at the Defensive Player of the Year award, and if he can keep blocking shots in bunches as he has been, it might be hard to deny him.

De'Andre Hunter - SF/PF, ATL @ NO ($5,200 DK, $5,600 FD)

Hunter has been playing huge minutes for a while, which is always a good starting point when evaluating the "best" plays. He's been playing well of late; posting 25+ DK points in 6 of his last 7, including a season-high 26 points @ the Jazz last Friday. As a cherry on top, he's registered a steal in 5 straight games.

Others to consider: Anthony Edwards ($10,000 DK, $9,400 FD), Joe Harris ($3,800 DK, $4,400 FD)

DraftKings and FanDuel Centers - NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Nikola Jokic - C, DEN vs MIN ($11,800 DK, $11,400 FD)

Another week of Jokic as the obvious top play at center. On their current homestand, the Nuggets are 3-0, led by 3 Jokic triple-doubles in which he averages almost 17 rebounds per game. Also in these 3 games, he's shot 69% from the field (nice). Stop me if you've heard this one before - if you want to pay up at Center, Jokic stands out as the top option.

Isaiah Hartenstein - C, NYK @ ORL  ($4,400 DK, $5,000 FD)

Since Mitchell Robinson went down, Hartenstein has been an absolute monster on the glass. He's recorded 10+ boards in 4 straight games and provides an extremely solid floor. If you catch him on a night where he can scrap out a double-double, he has a massive upside.

Others to consider: Xavier Tillman ($4,600 DK, $5,300 FD)
