Free NBA Draftkings Lineup Help and Advice 11/9/15

From what I have seen from NBA daily fantasy so far this year, everyone seems to be an expert. Everyone who is playing NBA on Draftkings or FanDuel has done their research, everyone has found sleepers and picked a bunch of safe studs. This year has been much harder than last year, so we are here to help you guys step your fantasy game up!

Last article’s highlight picks: 11/3/18

Mudiay   33.5  DK points

Drummonnd  68.75  DK points

George 38.75  DK points

Randle  28.25  DK points

Hill: 39.5 DK points

Point Guards

George Hill- $5,900 vs.ORL

I know George Hill looks super weird on the court with that Eminem hair, but it hasn’t messed with his game, in fact it may have even helped. This year, Hill has found ways to fill the stat sheet with assists, rebounds, and steals, averaging 2/game. Even with Monta Ellis and Paul George taking their shots, Hill has still found a way to be fantasy relevant. His price is the lowest it has been all season at $5,900 and his opponent, Elfrid Payton hasn’t looked healthy at all this season, so he will probably be lackadaisical on defense. The Magic have been banged up with injuries, so the Pacers should take advantage of that, and Hill should be a big part of it.

Damian Lillard-$8,500 @DEN

I can’t believe Draftkings has the audacity to price Lillard at only $8,500 tonight. Draftkings scoring doesn’t penalize players for missed shots, so Lillard should be in all of your lineups. With all of Lillards former teammates (Lopez, LA12, Wes, Batum) gone, it is “The Lillard Show” in Portland. Dame has been shooting a whopping 21 field goals a game this year!(Kobe’s worst was 27.0/FG a game in ’05). Lillard is bound to make some of his twenty shots a game and he gets to the line a fair amount too. On 11/3, Mudiay guarded Jordan Clarkson from L.A. and Clarkson dropped 30 on him, expect Lillard to do even more damage tonight. Lillard wants to bring the Blazers to the playoffs by himself, so he is playing with a fire every night. I’m already running the starter campaign for him to win the scoring title this year.

“The sleeper pick”- Austin Rivers(check to see if he is starting)

Shooting Guards

Victor Oladipo- $7,600 @IND

If you want to watch an awesome video, check out Oladipo’s college highlights, it’s a great use of four minutes. The Magic have had to deal with some injuries already this season and their biggest offensive weapon, Nikola Vucevic, will be out again, so it is Oladipo’s time to shine. Oladipo has had an awesome start to the season, averaging almost 39 DK points per game and now he will be even more heavily leaned upon by Orlando because Vuce is out. Draftkings is being pretty generous pricing Oladipo at only $7,600, so I would take advantage of that tonight against the Pacers.

Will Barton- $4,700 vs.POR(Revenge game alert)

Barton was never really given a chance to shine much in Portland, but Barton has had some nice fantasy games this year for the Nuggets, and at a cheap price too. In Barton’s last game against Golden state, he played 39 minutes and put up 42 points on Draftkings, while only costing $4,500. I think Barton will get a similar opportunity in tonight’s game against the Blazers. Barton is taking on his former team Monday night, so there is a little extra incentive for him tonight. The Nuggets shooting guard situation is awful thanks to Gary Harris and Randy Foye, so I think Barton is trying to step up and show his worth to the Nuggets. I expect Denver to play him a lot tomorrow against Portland, especially if it goes int0 garbage time.

“The sleeper pick”- Kevin Martin

Small Forwards

Kawhi Leonard- $8,100 @SAC

No matter how many stars the Spurs put in the lineup, it seems Kawhi always gets his due fantasy points. With Aldridge, Parker, Duncan, and Green wanting shots and looks, Leonard is still averaging 40.4 DK points/game. It looks like Kawhi has finally reached his full potential and can be a top flight player in this league. The lowest amount of points Leonard has put up this year was 34 on Draftkings, so he has a high floor and gets good minutes. I see this game getting out of hand pretty quickly and it may fall subject to garbage time pretty quickly, but I think Kawhi still has a nice game, even if he only plays 3 quarters.

Paul George- $8,600 vs. ORL

In PG13’s last 3 games he has averaged 55.75, 65, and 50 DK points respectively. George is back to his old ways and is stuffing the stat sheet in multiple ways. He has also averaged double digit rebounds in every game over his last three. George is really the only SF I can justify playing in Monday’s slate, his price of $8,600 is still too cheap for a player of his caliber, so until it goes up, you should be playing George virtually every day.

“The sleeper pick”- Omri Casspi

Power Forwards

Nemanja Bjelica- $4,300 @ATL

Bjelica has been exposed and it is no secret anymore that he is a one of the top sleepers of 2015. After putting up a double double and 43.75 DK points against the Bulls on Saturday, Bjelica caught people’s attention for the first time, and it may not be for the better. Now everyone knows Bjelica and what he can do when given minutes, so he will most likely be on everyone’s radar, but I think he makes for the perfect punt play tonight, as he takes on the Hawks. Bjelica is usually the first guy off the bench for the Wolves, when KG needs a breather at the 8 minute mark of the 1st, and he does a lot in a short amount of time. On the season, Bjelica has quietly averaged pretty close to a double double off the bench, putting up 7.6 PPG and 8.0 RPG. Bjelica should get more playing time after impressing his coaches last time out, so this may be the lowest we see his price all year, so take note.

“The sleeper pick”- Jordan Hill

Centers

Andre Drummond- $9,100 @GS     

The other day, I came up with a list of reasons not to play Andre Drummond on any given night. Here it is:

There is no reason not to play Drummond at a price of only $8,900! He is practically match up proof this year and most importantly, he is staying out of foul trouble. Detroit will probably get blown out by Golden State on Monday, but I don’t see any reason why Drummond shouldn’t get at least 50 DK points. Drummond had 29 and 27 last night against the Blazers, and yes you read that correctly. Drummond is going nuts and putting up incredible numbers this year. It reminds me a lot of Dwight Howard in his prime years in Olrando. So, until Draftkings changes his price to about $11,000, then I am playing him every night.

DeWayne Dedmon- $4,600 @IND

I realize that I have chosen a lot of players from this ORL v. IND game, but I think there are a ton of sleepers and easy finds in this match up. We saw this last year with Kyle O’Quinn, when Vucevic is out, there are fantasy points to be had at the Orlando center spot. Dedmon is filling in for the injured Vucevic tonight and in his last two games Dedmon has started, he has averaged 3 blocks/game. Dedmon has enjoyed the increased playing time as of late and put up 31.25 and 22.5 DK points his last two games. The Pacers give up the 6th most fantasy points to opposing bigs in the league. I think he should have a field day against Indiana’s bigs down in the post. I think Dedmon gets his first double double of the season tonight.
