DFS NBA DraftKings Lineup Advice 3/7/19
So my curse or bad guessing lives on. Kyrie was a Top Play for the Wednesday slate, and he’s out. Also, I somehow managed to place in Tiers last night with a terrible showing by Marc Gasol. If only I had picked Myles Turner. Anyway, it’s a small two game slate, but a slate is a slate, so let’s make some picks!

Top Plays
Paul George (Oklahoma City) $9,700 @ Portland
Pending him being complete back from his recent injury Paul George is far and away the top play on this slate. Greek Freek and Russell Westbrook are more expensive, and Paul George in 3 games this year is averaging, 68.5 (not a misprint) fantasy points per game against the Trailblazers. He will be highly owned, aka the CHALK, but I think he’s completely worth it!
Others to consider:Â
Damian Lillard $8,100 versus OKC, Greek Freek $11,200 versus Indiana, Russell Westbrook $11,100 @ Portland

CJ McCollum (Portland) $6,100 vs. Oklahoma City
Andre Roberson is out for the year, so there really is nobody on the Thunder who can defend CJ McCollum. I really don’t care that he is only averaging 29.8 fantasy points per game against the Thunder this season. This game figures to be close, and is a great spot for CJ. He is more scoring dependent than I would like, but at 6,100 he’s worth the risk here.

Others to consider:Â
Nikola Mirotic $4,800 versus Indiana, Al-Farouq Aminu $3,900 versus OKC, Ersan Ilyasova $3,200 versus Indiana
Neva Plays
Jusuf Nurkic (Portland) $6,700 vs. Oklahoma City
In a two game slate there is no true Neva Play. Nurkic has had some success against the Trailblazers here and is reasonably priced. That being said I think Steven Adams is a tough matchup for most Centers, and would rather take a chance on Myles Turner going against Bro Lo at a slightly lower price or even Steven Adams at a lower price.
