NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 3/29/16

By Keith Allison from Hanover, MD, USA (John Wall, Stephen Curry) [CC BY-SA 2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons

 

Stephen Curry, James Harden, and Russell Westbrook all play tonight. It is always difficult choosing between those three.

Read on to find out who you should play tonight and why.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 3/29/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays on FanDuel.

FanDuel DFS Guards

Stephen Curry (vs WAS, $10,500)

There are two guard options on the board tonight that are more expensive than Stephen Curry. This is precisely the reason that Curry made this list. He is slightly cheaper than both James Harden and Russell Westbrook, both of whom are playing great and can be used in all formats. Stephen has great upside, even if he did not show it in his last game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Tonight, he gets a great matchup against John Wall and the Washington Wizards. The Wizards love to push the pace of the game, and Wall tends to focus a little bit more on offense than he does defense. As long as Curry doesn't decide to pass the ball every open opportunity he gets, he could easily post over 60 fantasy points tonight. Use him in all formats.

Kemba Walker (at PHI, $7,800)

Kemba Walker is a very solid guard option tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers are probably going to keep this game close, as the Charlotte Hornets have not impressed so far this season. That means that Walker is going to see full minutes against a terrible defense. In his last game, he posted 25 fantasy points in 30 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks. The game prior, he posted over 35 fantasy points in the same amount of time against the Detroit Pistons. He has great upside, but he has not been playing all that well of recent. Due to his recent inconsistency, but also his great matchup, save him for tournaments, especially since his price tag has come down.

Iman Shumpert (vs HOU, $3,500)

Iman Shumpert did not practice on Monday due to knee soreness, so he is currently considered questionable to play tonight against the Houston Rockets. Honestly, he should play, but make sure to double-check prior to tip-off. Kyrie Irving sat out in his last game so his status is currently up in the air, and Mo Williams is dealing with a lingering knee pain. Iman Shumpert could be forced into around 25-30 minutes tonight against the Houston Rockets. The Rockets love to push the pace of the game, and James Harden is not really going to play much defense. J.R. Smith also makes for a solid tournament option, but Shumpert is cheaper.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Kevin Durant (at DET, $10,300)

Kevin Durant has been playing great of recent, and tonight, he gets a solid matchup against the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons are one of the worst teams in the league defensively, so Durant should have absolutely no problems tonight. He has over 40 fantasy points in all but three of his last 10 games. Four games ago, against the Indiana Pacers, he posted over 65 fantasy points in 37 minutes on the court. He recently double-doubled and posted over 40 fantasy points in 32 minutes against the San Antonio Spurs. If that does not show that he is matchup proof, nothing will. He can be used in both 50/50 contests and tournaments tonight due to his combination of upside and consistency.

Kevin Love (vs HOU, $6,900)

Kevin Love has been up and down of recent, but his upside is just too high to ignore. In his last three games, he has 44 fantasy points or more in two games. Against the New York Knicks, which was also his most recent game, he posted 45.4 fantasy points in 34 minutes on the court, scoring 28 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. Tonight, he faces the Houston Rockets, who are one of the worst teams in the league against opposing power forwards. Love has had a relatively disappointing season so far, but it would be unwise to ignore his recent hot streak. Continue to use him until he slows down.

Cody Zeller (at PHI, $4,400)

Cody Zeller has solid upside, and he is worth a look in tournaments tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers are one of the worst teams in the league without a doubt. They give up a ridiculous amount of points, and Zeller needs something to kickstart his current cold streak. He has 20 or less fantasy points in three straight games now, but in the four games prior to that, he posted over 20 fantasy points in three of them. He has 30 plus fantasy point upside, and his price tag is rather low. The Sixers are not going to slow him down if he starts to heat up. The only problem is that his minutes are on a decline. Do not use him in 50/50 contests right now.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Brook Lopez (at ORL, $8,100)

Brook Lopez is the best center option on the board tonight, as he gets a great matchup against the Orlando Magic. The Magic have really struggled against opposing centers for the last month or so, and Lopez has been playing well. In his last three games, he has over 35 fantasy points in all of them. He posted over 45 fantasy points three games ago against the Charlotte Hornets, scoring 29 points and grabbing nine rebounds in 39 minutes of action. He should do something similar tonight against the Magic, and his price tag isn't all that ridiculous. Along with his consistency, he has 60 plus fantasy point upside. Use him in all formats.
