FanDuel NBA Lineup Advice: Tuesday (2/6)

FanDuel NBA Lineup Advice: Tuesday (2/6)

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the NBA FanDuel lineup article. We have a nice eight-game slate to work with tonight. Let’s go ahead and take a look at my lineup for tonight’s slate.

Point Guard

Russell Westbrook (OKC): $11,800 at GSW
Russell Westbrook always gets up for big games and tonight he has a nationally televised game against the Warriors. In their only meeting this year, Westbrook went for 34 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists and four steals. There is definitely enough value on tonight’s slate to fit him into your lineup, so fade him at your own risk.

Tyler Ulis (PHO): $3,700 at LAL
I always have a hard time trusting Ulis, but he has never been in a better spot than tonight. The Suns recently shook up their rotation using Devin Booker as the starting point guard and sending Ullis back to the bench. However, Booker is sitting out tonight with a hip injury and Isaiah Canaan recently suffered a season-ending ankle injury. The Suns have called up Josh Gray from the G-League, but Ullis is going to see heavy minutes on the court tonight against a Lakers team who allows the third-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards.

Shooting Guard

James Harden (HOU): $11,200 at BKN
Another star player who I am jamming into my lineups tonight is James Harden. Harden and the Rockets have a golden matchup against the Nets, who have allowed the most FanDuel points to opposing shooting guards this season. Similar to Westbrook, fade at your own risk.

Wayne Selden (MEM): 3,800 at ATL
Wayne Selden has benefited greatly from all of the injuries in the Grizzlies backcourt. Over his past four games, Selden has averaged 22.75 FanDuel points. Tonight he has an excellent matchup against the Hawks, who have really struggled with defending opposing shooting guards this season.

Small Forward

Brandon Ingram (LAL): $6,900 vs. PHO
Brandon Ingram has been solid lately averaging 34.82 FanDuel points over his past five games. Tonight he has a solid matchup against the Suns in a game where the Lakers currently have a projected team total of 112.25 points.

Josh Jackson (PHO): $5,900 at PHO
Head coach Jay Triano has reinserted Josh Jackson into the starting lineup recently and he has been doing quite well. Jackson is in a great spot tonight against the Lakers who allow the second-most FanDuel points to opposing small forwards. With Booker missing tonight’s game, Jackson should see a nice uptick in usage percentage.

Power Forward

John Henson (MIL): $5,800 at NYK
John Henson went from an extremely volatile DFS option under Jason Kidd, to a very reliable DFS option since Kidd was fired. Over his past four games, Henson has averaged 30.2 FanDuel points and has seen no fewer than 28 minutes on the court. Tonight he has a great matchup against the Knicks, who have struggled this season against opposing centers.

Serge Ibaka (TOR): $4,800 vs. BOS
Serge Ibaka has been down a little bit recently, which has caused his salary to dip below $5,000. For the most part, Ibaka has been a pretty reliable cash game option. Tonight he has a decent matchup against the Celtics, who rank in the bottom 10 against opposing power forwards.

Center

Jarrett Allen (BKN): $5,700 vs. HOU
The Nets are not a very good basketball team. However, one of the recent bright spots for them has been the young, Jarrett Allen. Allen has started in each of the Nets past four games and has averaged 27.0 FanDuel points over that span. Tonight he has a decent matchup against the Rockets, who have allowed the third-most FanDuel points to opposing centers.
