DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/31/18): NBA DFS Lineups
We have a split slate of games with two in the early window, and three in the late slate, so just take note of the different start times. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the […]
Milos Teodosic Ruled Out Indefinitely
Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) has been ruled out indefinitely due to a torn plantar fascia in his left foot. Teodosic has been dealing with this issue throughout the season. He missed Wednesday's contest and was expected to be sidelined for multiple games. It sounds like Teodosic could be out for the rest […]
Trevor Ariza is Questionable on Friday
Houston Rockets guard/forward Trevor Ariza (elbow) is questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It sounds like he suffered this injury on Tuesday, but luckily it is considered a minor issue. Ariza has not been given a "rest" day since he was nursing his hamstring issue over the All-Star break. The Rockets aren't playing […]
Brandon Ingram Expected to Play Friday
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Brandon Ingram (hip) is probable for Friday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Kris Dunn Won't Play Against Heat
Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (toe) will not play in Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. This marks his seventh straight game sidelined and he may not return this season. The Bulls are tanking for draft positioning and have no incentive to play Dunn at anything other than 100 percent. Cameron Payne has been playing […]
Donovan Mitchell Scores 20 Points Against Boston
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell didn't shoot well in Wednesday's loss to Boston, going just 7-for-20 from the field, but he still managed a solid 20 points in 40 minutes.

Josh Jackson With A Full Line
Phoenix Suns small forward Josh Jackson filled up the stat sheet in a 111-99 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. Jackson did a little of everything, finishing with 18 points, five boards and three dimes to go along with two steals and two blocks. With a depleted Suns lineup as of late, JJ has stepped […]

Milos Teodosic Out on Wednesday
Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) will not play against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. He aggravated his left plantar fascia in Tuesday's win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Teodosic left the game after playing just 16 minutes and did not return to action. Tyrone Wallace and Jawun Evans will get extended playing time with […]
Courtney Lee is Questionable Against Sixers
New York Knicks guard/forward Courtney Lee (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's seen his role decrease heavily in the second half of the season.

DeMar DeRozan Contributes To Team Effort In Win Over Nuggets

Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Rodney Hood continues to play productive basketball off the Cleveland bench. On Tuesday, he scored 15 points on 6-for-13 shooting and went 2-for-5 from three.
