Top 5 FanDuel NBA DFS Picks Today

5. Drew Eubanks, Portland Trail Blazers

Eubanks has power forward and center eligibility at a low price of $4,900. He is projected for 26 fantasy points, with a goal of 30, and is in the optimal lineup 24% of the time. Eubanks is a solid per-minute producer and could be essential in this matchup against the Detroit Pistons, who are missing multiple key players. Eubanks averages 8.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, two assists and two stocks per game, making him an excellent point-per-dollar play. Additionally, his eligibility as a power forward allows for a big-time center to be included in the lineup.

4. Trey Murphy, New Orleans Pelicans

Murphy is projected for 25 points and has a goal of 32, making him a strong option in the optimal lineup 25% of the time. With 32 minutes expected, Murphy should be able to contribute nicely to the Pelicans’ effort against the Sacramento Kings, especially since they’re currently missing multiple players. The fast-paced matchup also works in Murphy’s favor, and he’s likely to capitalize on Sacramento’s weak defense. Although he’s not a high per-minute producer, Murphy’s value comes from his minutes and his ability to fill up the stat sheet. With a low price point of $5,200, he’s definitely worth considering for FanDuel NBA DFS lineups.

3. Tobias Harris, Philadelphia 76ers

Harris is power forward eligible and projected for 29 points at a cost of $5,800. The goal is 35 points, and he is in the optimal lineup 25% of the time. Although he is not a primary player in this offense, Harris’ price tag is attractive at the moment. He plays about 34 minutes a night and averages around 0.85 fantasy points per minute. His usage is 18%, with 15 points, six.5 boards, two.5 assists and a stock.5. The matchup against the Pacers is great, as their defense is not very good and the pace is up. Harris did leave his last game early and is questionable for this one, but if he is in and at that price, he is an interesting option.

2. Matisse Thybulle, Portland Trail Blazers

Thybulle is $5,100 and projected for 26 points, with a goal of 31. He is in the optimal lineup 29% of the time and plays 32 minutes or more a night, giving him 0.8 fantasy points per minute. However, what makes him an interesting option is his matchup against the Pistons. The Pistons are a bad team, and Thybulle likes to create turnovers. With a pace-up game, it’s likely that the Pistons will cough up the ball repeatedly. Thybulle has 8.5 points on 11% usage, five boards, two assists and 3.2 stocks. On FanDuel, it’s the 3-point blocks and steals that will get you there, and if Thybulle has an outlier day, it’s probably because he has five or six stocks. At $5,100 for a small forward that’s going to play 30-plus minutes, Thybulle is a good value on a six-game slate.

1. Marvin Bagley, Detroit Pistons

With a projected 35 fantasy points, Bagley is the No. 1 contender and has a goal of 37 points. He is in the optimal lineup 30% of the time and is projected to play 28 minutes, but he could potentially play more. Bagley averages 1.25 fantasy points per minute and will be facing a weak Blazers defense. With the Pistons expected to keep up the pace, Bagley should have plenty of opportunities to fill out the stat sheet with his projected 17 points, 11 rebounds, one assist and 1.5 stocks. Bagley’s power forward and center eligibility make him an easy pairing with Eubanks. Overall, Bagley is a strong play and could become even better if James Wiseman is ruled out due to lack of a backup center.
