Only four games on the slate tonight, so this will be a quick and easy run through of picks. There isn't ALL that much value out there, so instead of scraping at the bottom of the barrel, I'm giving you the picks that should simply exceed value. With a logjam of options at just about every position, you do not need to worry about saving money as much as you need outright production.

All of these games offer value, but Kings-Heat will be your best bet for getting lower-priced options that exceed their projected. Other than that, it's tough to say how a team like the Wizards will stack up against the Thunder defense. Marcin Gortat will be forced to rumble with Steven Adams in the paint, so expect a slight higher usage coming out of the Washington frontcourt, but other than that it's a toss up. Another potential sleeper pick is Jamal Crawford. The Timberwolves played last night without Jimmy Butler and Crawford scored 19 points. He should be riding his hot-hand into the shootout with Golden State.

Below you will find our daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 1/25/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options, to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Jeff Teague - PG @ GS ($6,000)

Jeff Teague did not have the most prolific night of his career, but he got the job done. Now that he is facing the Warriors, there will be an increased sense of urgency. Minnesota does not really match up with the Warriors and the game shouldn't be close. That being said, the Timberwolves do have the talent to keep up if they Warriors are shooting poorly. I am not betting on that tonight, but this is the NBA after all and instances where Minnesota beat the Warriors during the regular season are all too common. Teague is lined up to bounce back and we will get more than his fair share of opportunities to produce.

Klay Thompson - SG vs. MIN ($6,500)

Usually Klay Thompson is the best option when one of the core superstar is dealing with an injury, but there is always a decent chance Thompson is the one with the hot-hand...seeing how is one of the best shooters in the league and all. The Timberwolves defense isn't bad, it's just not good enough to keep the Warriors and Klay from being effective. Noone has been able to stop them yet and tonight is going to be a important second matchup between both teams. Thompson led the Warriors in scoring last time these teams played and I do not expect a different outcome.

Jarrett Jack - PG @ DEN ($4,900)

There has been one player this year that has been causing casual Knicks fans to curse and stomp around. His name is Jarrett Jack and the slander is incredibly unnecessary. He has been incredibly productive in his first year with the Knicks and he is an ideal veteran to be in front of rookie Frank Ntilikina. Until Ntilikina proves he deserves the starting spot, Jack is going to be a key component of the Knicks offense. The team quickly resorts to letting Jack run the offense alongside Kristaps Porzingis and the Nuggets backcourt struggles against opposing guards. This should be another solid outing from Jack.

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Justise Winslow - SF vs. SAC ($3,600)

He is still returning from injury but Justise Winslow has quickly become a fantasy gem. Usually his streaky shooting pulls from his overall production, but he has been a hustle-stat-reaper since returning. He is all over the place and it looks like he is making up for lost time this season. The Heat have plenty of options to use nightly, but they tend to run with a smaller, more athletic lineup more times than not. Winslow is a big part of that athleticism and compact strength, giving him the perfect amount of versatility in the Heat rotation. It's upsetting to think where Winslow would be this year if he wasn't hurt, but expect him to make up ground quickly with eye-catching stat lines.

Wilson Chandler - SF vs. NYK ($5,200)

This is a risky play simply because Wilson Chandler has become the perfect veteran for the Nuggets. He does everything necessary to help the team and sometimes that means setting picks, moving the ball, and obtaining the dreaded hockey-assist. Luckily, this team-first attitude benefits him when the rest of the team is struggling. Chandler is about as consistent as they come when it comes to on-court presence, so do not look over him against the Knicks. This should be a close game between two budding teams so expect a ton of usage from both of these teams veterans and more sure-handed players.

Draymond Green - PF vs. MIN ($8,100)

Draymond Green might have his hands full gaurding Karl-Anthony Towns, but then again, he might be giving Towns a taste of his own medicine by working Towns on defense. Green's production takes an obvious dip when all the starters are available, but if the Warriors come out hitting their shots, chances are Green will be the one passing them the ball. Yes, Kevin Durant's 14 assists last game basically makes him the best passer on the Warriors, but Green is still the main facilitator...

The Kevin Durant part was sarcasm.

FanDuel DFS Centers

Bam Adebayo - C vs. SAC ($4,200)

There is a lot of noise surrounding Bam Adebayo and it is entirely justified. His athleticism and defense earns his minutes every night and his offense is slowly working it's way into useful territory. Not only do the Kings struggle mightily against opposing centers, but Adebayo is an extremely athletic center who has upside against a weak opponent. If the Heat and Kings are in a close game, Adebayo's defense will be used. If the Heat beat the living crud out of the Kings, Adebayo is going to get some quality experience to work on his offense. It's a win-win.
