There are 7 games Monday night and I expect it to be a great night for NBA. Plenty of games that have potential to be close games where superstars showcase why they are paid millions for dribbling inflated rubber. That being said, the players I advise are players in my lineup so IF it all goes downhill, I'll be tumbling down right next to you.
These are my daily fantasy NBA lineup picks for FanDuel on 11/07/16. Note that these DFS lineup picks can range from some of the elite NBA players to mid-priced DFS options and value play sleepers on FanDuel. Let's get rolling…

FanDuel DFS Guards
Kemba Walker - PG, vs. IND ($7,800)
Kemba Walker is coming off a 30 point effort against the 76ers and when he faces the Pacers, he'll go up against Jeff Teague. Teague has never been a menacing defender which makes paying up for Walker worth it. The Pacers and Hornets will be competing all season for a playoff spot and this series is going to be one that I am not going to miss. Literally. I am not going to miss this game because Kemba is going to go off alongside Nic Batum while Paul George, Teague, and Myles Turner hold it down for the Pacers. Although Walker is coming off a season high, I see him responding with another 30 point outing.
Tim Frazier - PG, @ GSW ($5,400)
The line for this game on Yahoo says -17 in favor of the Warriors but seeing how last game panned out, Frazier finished with 40.2 PTS on FanDuel, leaving me optimistic about this matchup. The Pelicans are fighting for their first win and after a loss to the Lakers, the Warriors will look to rebound. Look for the Pelicans to expect a Warrior team that comes out guns blazing. The Pelicans will be responding with a high volume of shots and hopefully another freakish performance from Anthony Davis. The Pelicans are limited for options on offense but that just leaves more room for Tim Frazier and Anthony Davis to score points.
Also Consider: George Hill - PG , @ PHI @ ($6,000)
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Gordon Hayward - SF, @PHI ($7,300)
In his return against the Knicks, Gordon Hayward scored 28 points in 35 minutes. He shot 6-17 which can be improved and against the 76ers, I expect Hayward to bury Philadelphia in mid range jump-shots and floaters. Philadelphia lets up a lot of point to forwards and Hayward is one of the best in the league. He can shoot, drive, and find open shooters. Hayward is going to be a fantasy gem and because the 76ers are well below average defensively, the Jazz will let Hayward run the offense the way he wants as the Utah offense shifts from George Hill back to Gordon Hayward.
Markieff Morris - PF, @ WAS ($5,800)
Markieff Morris will see a tremendous increase in usage in the absence of John Wall simply because Washington needs offense and Morris has one of the more consistent jumpers on the team. Morris has proven himself as a scorer and the Rockets sacrifice points to opposing forwards. With an inexperienced point guard in Tomas Satoransky, Morris and a few other Wizards should benefit and become fantasy relevant for the time being. John Wall being out hurts the Wizards overall stats but opens the door for one or two players to explode and outproduce their predicted score. Can you guess who the other might be?
Also Consider: Taj Gibson - , ($)
FanDuel DFS Centers
Marcin Gortat - C, vs. HOU ($5,900)
If you guessed Marcin Gortat...good for you, you don't get anything. Gortat showed out last game and he should repeat that performance against Clint Capela. The Wizards will be without John Wall again meaning they will need to generate offense elsewhere. Gortat is going to be one of those sources along with Markieff Morris. Im assuming the Wizards will be shooting the lights out to try and keep up with the Rockets and Gortat will be all over the boards and easy put backs.
Also Consider: Robin Lopez - C, vs. ORL ($4,600)
