Like always, I’m going to give you guys both my top play and value pick for each position.
So, get ready and take notes!
NBA DFS FanDuel lineup advice for 12/9/15
Point Guards
Top Play: Isaiah Thomas, vs. Bulls ($8,000)
There is a plethora of great options at the point guard position, but I see Thomas being my go-to guy for this slate of games. So far this season, he has averaged 34.09 FanDuel points per game and will be facing off against a surprisingly soft Bulls defense. In 2015, Chicago has allowed an average of 42.5 FanDuel points per contest to opposing point guards, so get Thomas into your lineups. I truly believe Thomas will put up one of the best overall stat lines of this slate!
Value Pick: Jordan Clarkson, vs. Wolves ($5,600)
If you’re looking to spend less money on the point guard position, look no further than Clarkson. He has easily been one of the most consistent options on this horrible Lakers team so far this year. This season, Clarkson is averaging 23.28 FanDuel points per contest and has a juicy matchup against Minnesota. So far this year, the Wolves have allowed an average of 42.5 FanDuel points to opposing points guards.
Other Options:
Kyle Lowry, vs. Spurs ($9,300)
Ricky Rubio, vs. Lakers ($7,100)
Shooting Guards
Top Pick: Victor Oladipo, vs. Suns ($7,600)
Oladipo has been a consistent option this season at the shooting guard spot and has a great matchup on Wednesday night. He’ll be facing off against a Suns team who has allowed an average of 36.6 FanDuel points per contest to opposing shooting guards in 2015. So far this year, Oladipo has put up 30.47 FanDuel points per game and is primed to potentially exceed that for this slate.
Value Pick: Alec Burks, vs. Knicks ($5,500)

Burks is a very intriguing option for this group of games because he has the potential to put up a nice stat line. In 2015, he’s averaging just 23.22 FanDuel points per contest but put up some above average games last week. This season, New York has allowed an average of 36.4 FanDuel points per game to opposing shooting guards, so take a chance with Burks.
Other Options:
James Harden, vs. Wizards ($10,800)
Bradley Beal, vs. Rockets ($7,400)
Small Forwards
Top Pick: Andrew Wiggins, vs. Lakers ($7,000)
It was extremely tough to pick a top play at the small forward position for this slate of games. With Kawhi Leonard dealing with the flu and Carmelo Anthony is playing a stout Jazz defense, Wiggins seems like the best option overall. So far this season, Wiggins has averaged a solid 29.00 FanDuel points per game and will be facing off against a Lakers squad who are generous to the small forward position. In 2015, Los Angeles has allowed an average of 35.9 FanDuel points to opposing small forwards.
Value Pick: Nikola Mirotic, vs. Celtics ($5,600)
I like a few of the Bulls players for Wednesday night’s games and Mitotic will make for a nice value play! So far in 2015, Boston has allowed an average of 42.8 FanDuel points per game to opposing small forwards, making Mirotic a super sneaky option at his position. On a night where the small forward spot is rather scarce, it may make more sense to pick a cheaper option.
Other Options:
Marcus Morris, vs. Grizzlies ($5,900)
Khris Middleton, vs. Clippers ($5,600)
Power Forwards
Top Pick: Blake Griffin, vs. Bucks ($9,300)
I had to get one of the top-priced players on my list and Griffin by far will be one of the best overall plays of the night! He’ll be facing off against a Bucks squad who doesn’t defend well against power forwards at all, allowing an average of 42.9 FanDuel points per game to them this year. This season, Griffin has averaged a cool 42.34 FanDuel points per contest and won’t disappoint you guys for this slate.
Value Pick: Terrence Jones, vs. Wizards ($5,600)
I don’t expect a whole lot of defense to come from this Washington versus Houston contest, making most of the starters for each team a decent play. As a value pick at small forward, Jones could very well put up a nice stat line for you all. This season, the Wizards have allowed an average of 42.8 FanDuel points per contest to opposing power forwards, making Jones a cheap, solid option on Wednesday night.
Other Options:
Pau Gasol, vs. Celtics ($8,500)
Chris Bosh, vs. Hornets ($7,700)
Centers
Top Pick: Hassan Whiteside, vs. Hornets ($7,700)
I love both Whiteside and Bosh for this slate of games because the Hornets just can’t defend well against big men. This season, Charlotte has allowed an average of 47.0 FanDuel points to opposing centers, making Whiteside, one of the top overall options for the night. So far in 2015, Whiteside has averaged 34.37 FanDuel points per game. With this great matchup ahead of him, I don’t see any better option than this guy!
Value Pick: Gorgui Dieng, vs. Lakers ($4,600)
Dieng is by far the best cheap option at the center position for this slate. He has finally seen a nice increase of minutes over the last week and has really taken advantage of his time on the court. In 2015, the Lakers have allowed an average of 48.6 FanDuel points to opposing centers, making Dieng an ultra-solid option for Wednesday night!
Other Options:
Greg Monroe, vs. Clippers ($7,700)
Karl-Anthony Towns, vs. Lakers ($6,900)
