FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/1/20): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Dennis Clausen highlights the top FanDuel NBA DFS lineup picks for 3/1/20, and a couple of sleepers to consider while building daily rosters.

The league has six games scheduled to close out the week. With contests beginning at 1 p.m. (eastern), things are a bit trickier and harder to gauge in terms of plugging in potential value plays for an injured player. As a result, it would be wise to negate those who are questionable as well as doubtful. Speaking of injuries, we know Philly has been plagued with the bug as of late as both Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons will be out for the foreseeable future, with the former expected to return sooner than the latter. Luka Doncic is also on the fence regarding his availability for the showdown in Minnesota with the Timberwolves, which will be a major blow to those hoping to deploy a "scrubs and studs" approach to the slate.

To round things out, Khris Middleton, Malik Monk, Willie Cauley-Stein, Karl-Anthony Towns, Marc Gasol, Serge Ibaka, Fred Vanvleet, Paul Millsap, Bruce Brown, Thon Maker, Christian Wood, De'Aaron Fox, Cory Joseph, Danny Green, J.J. Redick, Draymond Green, and Jordan Poole are all listed as either out or are in danger of not suiting up. Stephen Curry will also not make his return on Sunday after missing time with a hand injury, with his next chance to see the floor potentially coming on Thursday against the Raptors.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for FanDuel on 3/1/20. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. You can also check out today's DraftKings lineup picks.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Damion Lee - SG, vs. WAS ($5,800)

We can take advantage of Lee's minutes and usage rate for a least a few more games until Stephen Curry makes his way back into the lineup. Though Golden State is a mess, he continues to receive a consistent role in the Warrior's rotation. The 27-year-old is coming off of a stellar February where he averaged 15.6 points, 3.9 assists, and 3.5 assists. The Wizards are horrendous on the defensive end, so look for Lee to potentially do some damage.

Devonte' Graham - SG, vs. MIL ($5,700)

Graham scored only six points and shot 1-for-17 against the Bulls and the Nets in the two games after the All-Star break. After receiving a heavy dose of minutes all year in addition to participating in the All-Star festivities, head coach James Borrego gave the 25-year-old a night off to rest against the Pacers. It apparently did the trick as Graham combined for 39 points in his previous two games. Though playing the Bucks isn't easy by any means, the pace of this one should allow him to at least hit his value. If you are looking for a cheap option at point guard as well, feel free to throw in the equally priced Terry Rozier, who has hit at least 33.2 fantasy points over his last two outings.

Shake Milton - PG, @ LAC ($5,000)

With Ben Simmons sidelined with a nerve impingement in his back, Milton has the chance to continue serving as the team's starting point guard for the immediate future. He has done well in this role, averaging nearly a fantasy point per minute over the last three games. He is no longer considered a value play, but that doesn't mean that there isn't plenty of value left to be had, especially when you consider how head coach Brett Brown loves to play his starting unit into the ground, which translates into more minutes for the second-year man out of SMU.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Tobias Harris - SF, @ LAC ($7,500)

The absence of Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons leaves a significant void on the offensive end. While Shake Milton and Josh Richardson will contribute more than usual, Harris is the clear-cut No. 1 option for Philly. He has a tough matchup against his former team, but he should have no issue putting up some numbers based on pure volume alone. Al Horford, who is priced at a generous $5,300, should also get some consideration on Sunday.

Nemanja Bjelica - PF, vs. DET ($4,800)

Bjelica has played north of 30 minutes over the last two games and has hit at least 30.8 fantasy points during that same span. The absence of De'Aaron Fox has been the primary culprit for his increased production, so if he is out once again, check out Bjelica in what could be another favorable outing for the veteran.

Juan Hernangomez - SF, vs. DAL ($4,800)

Hernangomez has carved out a nice little role for himself at the four spot and has been active since being dealt by the Nuggets prior to the deadline. He accumulated 48.1 fantasy points against the Orlando Magic a few nights ago, and while this likely won't happen again, it demonstrates just how high his ceiling can be if all of the stars align.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

John Henson - C, @ SAC ($4,200)

Thon Maker and Christian Wood are in danger of missing some time on Sunday. If either of those guys aren't able to go, Henson would likely be a popular roster addition across the board. He has logged around 20 minutes per game over his previous three but could be in line for an extended run, so make sure you monitor the statuses of both Maker and Wood before opening tip.
