DFS NBA FanDuel Lineup Advice & Spreadsheet 4/4/17

The NBA regular season is winding down and soon we will be in full on playoff NBA, but we are blessed today with a nice large slate for a Tuesday. A lot of teams are jockeying for playoff positioning, and some are fighting for their playoffs lives. Knowing who is playing for something and who isn’t will be key in this last week. Before we get into the spreadsheet and advice, just a few things…

1. If you haven’t downloaded the app yet, you can get it for free here: GoingFor2 App for Andriod and iPhone.

2. If you have already downloaded the App, you can really help us out by going to the App store or Google Play store and giving us a five-star rating or a review.

3. In case you were living under a rock, MLB is back! We have a couple guys covering MLB DFS for us, so definitely check them out.

4. I just recruited a PGA DFS writer, so be on the lookout for his stuff soon as well.

5. Finally, I’m recording an NFL Mock Draft podcast this weekend. I’m going to have five NFL Draft experts come on the show. I’ve assigned each of them 5-to-6 teams, and we are going to go through the draft as if they are the GMs and do a complete First Round Mock. Should be fun, so be on the lookout for that.

Okay, now let’s get to why you are here…

DFS NBA FanDuel Lineup Spreadsheet 4/4/17

What I See…

Anthony Davis/DeMarcus Cousins $9,600/$11,200

FanDuel is currently showing Anthony Davis as “available”, but Vegas (via VegasInsider.com) hasn’t put out a line at the time of this article because they think the Brow’s status is in question after an ankle injury in his last game. If Davis is out, Cousins becomes a near must play. I like Boogie even is Davis plays, but I LOVE him if Davis is out.

Russell Westbrook $13,600

The only question here is, “Will Westbrook get to $14,000?”. I’ve been fading Westbrook over the last few because of his price tag, but I can’t blame you for playing him.

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot $4,200

Thank god this is a print advice column. If this were audio or video I’d have no idea how to say his name. With Robert Covington out for the season, and the Nets having nothing to play for, TLC will be a popular value on today’s slate.

Terrence Ross $4,300

Ross struggled in what should have been an easy matchup for him in his last game against the Nets, but the six straight games before that game he was hitting 24 or more FanDuel points a game. I’ll consider that last game the exception, not the rule. He has the two thumbs up matchup as well.

Jeremy Lin $6,100

Lin is the only Nets player averaging 30-plus minutes over the last five games, and at $6,100 and top six PG grade, he could be sneaky.

Giannis Antetokounmpo $10,100

As the only “Best” graded shooting guard on this slate, I’ll think the Alphabet will be in a lot of my games lineups tonight.

Justin Anderson $4,000

Anderson gets the three thumbs up matchup and is only $4,000. Another great value on the slate.

Aaron Gordon $5,800

He has been great lately and he will draw the non-existent defense of Kevin Love. At $5,800, he gets graded just a shade lower than the $11,200 Anthony Davis, yes, please.

Brook Lopez $7,900

If you’re not playing DeMarcus Cousins, Lopez is a great alternative. He is the only player I saw with the trifecta. He has the “Best” grade, three thumbs up matchup, and the “Hot” tag.
