It’s a brand new day in the DFS community and I’ve got some free NBA DFS FanDuel lineup advice for you guys! On Sunday, we will all witness an action packed six-game slate of NBA fun. Like always, I’m going to give you all my top play and value pick for each position, so let’s get this party started!
So, get ready and take notes!
NBA DFS FanDuel lineup advice for 11/22/15
Point Guards
Top Play: Stephen Curry, vs. Nuggets ($11,100)
I’ll be picking on this weak Denver defense throughout this article! Curry has been one of the most utterly dominating players over the last few seasons and will have no problem owning this Nuggets squad. In 2015, Curry has averaged a whopping 50.16 FanDuel points per contest and has his sights set on another big day for us all. This season, Denver allows an average of 45.4 FanDuel points to opposing points guards, so if you feel like spending some money, Curry is your guy.
Value Pick: Jordan Clarkson, vs. Blazers ($5,900)
If you’re looking to go cheaper at the point guard spot look no further than Clarkson. He isn’t anywhere close to the talent level of stars such as Curry or Westbrook, but he will give you a solid stat line for this slate. So far in 2015, Clarkson has averaged 22.96 FanDuel points per contest and will be facing off against a Portland team who allows an average of 43.2 FanDuel points to opposing point guards.
Other Options:
Russell Westbrook, vs. Mavericks ($11,900)
Brandon Knight, vs. Pelicans ($8,000)
Shooting Guards
Top Pick: Klay Thompson, vs. Nuggets ($6,300)
Like I said earlier, the Nuggets have one of the worst defenses in the NBA. Thompson finally seems to be getting his swagger back and it’s just in time for us to insert him into our lineups for this juicy Sunday slate. In 2015, Thompson has averaged 25.8 FanDuel points per game and will be a nice alternative to using Curry for this game. The Nuggets allow a league worst 41.7 FanDuel points per game.
Value Pick: Avery Bradley, vs. Nets ($5,800)

Bradley isn’t the most consistent player to run out at shooting guard, but he has a nice matchup versus Brooklyn. This season, the Nets allow an average of 40.9 FanDuel points per contest to opposing shooting guards, which spells great news for Celtics guards. Bradley has averaged 22.55 FanDuel points per game this season and I see no reason why he can’t exceed that average.
Other Options:
DeMar DeRozan, vs. Clippers ($7,600)
Kobe Bryant, vs. Blazers ($7,200)
Small Forwards
Top Pick: Al-Farouq Aminu, vs. Lakers ($6,000)
With Kevin Durant potentially not playing once again on Sunday, the small forward position is ultra-thin for this slate of games. This season, Aminu has averaged 26.29 FanDuel points per contest and has greatly exceeded my expectations for him overall. He’ll be facing off against a Lakers squad who allows an average of 35.7 FanDuel points per game, making him the most viable start of the day.
Value Pick: Jae Crowder, vs. Nets ($5,400)
I really like Celtics players versus this Brooklyn team for this slate! Crowder is by far my favorite lower-tier player to roll out for DFS on Sunday. This year, he has averaged 25.32 FanDuel points per game and draws a great matchup for this slate. In 2015, the Nets have allowed an average of 37.9 FanDuel points per contest, making Crowder a potential big time play!
Other Options:
Danilo Gallinari, vs. Warriors ($7,000)
DeMarre Carroll, vs. Clippers ($5,900)
Power Forwards
Top Pick: Draymond Green, vs. Nuggets ($7,800)
What do you know another Warriors player for this Sunday slate! Green may very well be my favorite overall play for the entire day because of this great matchup! This year, Denver allows an average of 45.6 FanDuel points per contest. Over his last three contests, Green has averaged 31.1 FanDuel points per game and averages 34.76 for the season. Mark my words, Green will be the best play of the day!
Value Pick: Dwight Powell, vs. Thunder ($4,600)
I like the Dallas Mavericks big men against Oklahoma City on this glorious Sunday! This season, OKC has given up an average of 41.6 FanDuel points per contest to the power forward position, which makes all Dallas big men nice plays. So far this season, Powell has averaged 23.25 FanDuel points per game.
Other Options:
Blake Griffin, vs. Raptors ($9,600)
Dirk Nowitzki, vs. Thunder ($6,700)
Centers
Top Pick: DeAndre Jordan, vs. Raptors ($7,400)
Even though I’m a Mavs fan and am still bitter by Jordan’s off-season antics, he’s one of my favorite plays of the day! So far this season, Jordan has averaged 31.77 FanDuel points per game and should easily exceed that for this slate. In 2015, Toronto has allowed an average of a whopping 47.5 FanDuel points per game, making all Clippers big men solid starts.
Value Pick: Mason Plumlee, vs. Lakers ($5,700)
I’ve been one of Plumlee’s biggest supporters all season long! This will be one of those games where he will shine for our DFS lineups. Over his last four games, Plumlee has averaged 27.73 FanDuel points per game and should have no problem at all reaching that total on Sunday. He’ll be facing off against a Lakers team who can’t defend the center position, allowing an average of 50.1 FanDuel points per game!
Other Options:
Roy Hibbert, vs. Blazers ($5,400)
Tyson Chandler, vs. Pelicans ($5,100)
