FanDuel DFS Guards

Russell Westbrook (vs GSW, $11,000)

This is going to be a fantastic matchup tonight, as Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors take on Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Curry is currently a little more expensive than Westbrook, so the edge, for fantasy purposes, goes to Westbrook. In his last game, he scored 44 points, but only assisted the ball nine times and grabbed four rebounds. He did post over 60 fantasy points, but he could of done better. He is going to give it everything he has tonight, so look out. Use him in all formats.

Mike Conley (at PHO, $6,900)

Mike Conley gets a fantastic matchup tonight against the Phoenix Suns, and he has really looked good in a few of his last games. Against the Los Angeles Lakers, he posted 43.2 fantasy points in 29 minutes of action, and that is definitely something he could repeat tonight. The Suns are one of the worst teams in the league against opposing point guards, and Conley is going to take advantage of that. He is more of a tournament play, but he can be used in 50/50 contests if he fits.

Shelvin Mack (vs BKN, $3,700)

Shelvin Mack is one of the best value guard plays on the board tonight, as his price tag just doesn't seem to want to come up. In his last three games, he has 29.6, 17.2, and 18.1 fantasy points. This is value for someone as cheap as Mack is. He is seeing around 25-30 minutes per game, and he is going to continue to produce. The Brooklyn Nets are horrendous against opposing guards and getting rid of Joe Johnson definitely did not help their cause. Mack should be used in all formats tonight - both 50/50 contests and tournaments, as he is very likely to surpass value.

 

FanDuel DFS Forwards

Anthony Davis (vs MIN, $10,200)

Anthony Davis has tremendous upside. He showed that upside three games ago against the Detroit Pistons when he posted almost 90 fantasy points in 43 minutes of action. Since then, he only has 40.5 and 48.2 fantasy points in his next two games. Tonight, he gets a fantastic matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and he could explode any night he takes the court. Davis is definitely more of a tournament play. There is just no way to predict how well he is going to play on any given night.

Gorgui Dieng (at NOR, $6,500)

Gorgui Dieng makes for a great play tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans. Despite Davis' great upside, the Pelicans are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Dieng has been rather consistent of recent, if his game against the New York Knicks is disregarded. He has over 35 fantasy points in three of his last five games, and over 30 fantasy points in four of them. He should definitely hit value tonight, and he is best used in 50/50 contests. He is a very predictable player.

Matt Barnes (at PHO, $5,000)

Matt Barnes is a little less predictable, so utilize him in tournaments tonight. He gets a great matchup against the Phoenix Suns, who, as I've been saying, are still one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Barnes posted 39.6 fantasy points in 37 minutes in his first matchup with the Lakers, and that is something that could happen again tonight. He has great upside, and his price tag is not all that high. Use him to save a little bit of salary cap.

 

FanDuel DFS Centers

Brandan Wright (at PHO, $3,700)

Brandan Wright looked great in his last game, which was against the Los Angeles Lakers. He posted 25.7 fantasy points in 22 minutes of action. Tonight, he plays the Phoenix Suns. It is so easy to pick on their defense, and it is something that every fantasy player should be doing right now. Wright will allow you to get some of the more expensive options on the board, as his price tag is so low. A lot of fantasy owners are going to overlook him tonight because FanDuel only allows for one center. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments, as his price tag is so low that he is expected to hit value.
