NBA GPP Cheat Sheet
Prices listed are Fanduel unless otherwise noted.
My NBA articles will mostly focus on Fanduel lineup construction since besides center, you need to play two at each position. The players recommended are usually still good plays on DraftKings unless the pricing is drastically different. Also, many players on DraftKings have dual position eligibility or may be listed at a different position. I will try to mention if there is a specific good play on DK based on price or position eligibility. These are my favorite plays at each position and maybe a value play or two. The players listed are in no particular order, as I am giving choices to help build your lineups.
No Podcast today for only two game slate
Point Guard
Damian Lillard – $9800 – prefer over Curry if have to pick one
Dejounte Murray – $4600 – favorite value
Steph Curry – $9500 – prefer Lillard, but if you want to squeeze them both in
Lonzo Ball – probably fading and going Murray and one of the high priced PGs
Shooting Guard
C.J. McCollum – $80000 – favorite overall
Klay Thompson – $6800 – $1200 discount from McCollum
Jordan Clarkson – $3900 – value
Can get behind KCP or Danny Green if you want to go there
Small Forward
Kevin Durant – $9800 – like him with Leonard still out. Try and get him in
Brandon Ingram – $5900 – good price for 30-40 point upside
Evan Turner or Maurice Harkless are in play
Andre Iguodala – $4000 – punt play
Power Forward
LaMarcus Aldridge – $8100
Draymond Green – $7800 – trying to figure a way to get him and Aldridge in
Larry Nance Jr. – $5800 – probably will pair him with one of the above
Caleb Swanigan – $3000 – punt play
Center
Jusif Nurkic – $7200 – highest ceiling on slate, though tough to get him in
Pau Gasol – $6100 – He is currently the center I am playing
Brook Lopez – $5300 – $800 cheaper than Gasol if you need the savings
Probably not punting center today
