Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks
October 31st, 2014
Point Guard - Derrick Rose
I'm sticking with Derrick Rose because I still think he's priced to low. He had an okay performance in his first game, but it would have been a lot better if it wasn't a blow out. I think against there's going to be a playoff atmosphere in tonight's game against the Cavs, which means a close game. I think Rose and LeBron go at it tonight.
Point Guard - Brandon Knight
I really like the fact that Knight took the most shots for the Bucks and still dished out 13 assists. I don't think he'll grab 8 rebounds again but he'll get the assists and I really like his scoring upside.

Consider Isaiah Thomas
Shooting Guard - Eric Bledsoe
This is a tough position tonight, as there aren't a lot of options. I think Bledsoe is a safe pick tonight, in a good match up against the Spurs. This should be a high scoring game and I expect Bledsoe to lead the suns in scoring. Maybe he won't get thrown out of this game.
Shooting Guard - Kobe Bryant
I think Kobe scores a lot of points again tonight, but he hasn't done much else. Consider only using one SG tonight on DraftKings, but if this game does end up close, it will because Kobe has a lot of points, like 40. I would only use him in tournament play because it's risky at his price.
Consider - Rodney Stuckey
Small Forward - CJ Miles
This is my favorite value pick of the night. Miles outplayed his value in his first game and didn't shoot great, but shoot he did. He was clearly told before the game he had to score for the Pacers because he was getting shots up like crazy. I think he shoots a lot again tonight, and hopefully more shots fall tonight.
Small Forward - LeBron James
Very high priced tonight but there's not a lot of other options. I also think he has a great game tonight now that his nerves are calmed a little bit. In this matchup against Chicago, I think we could see a huge game against LeBron. After the loss last night, he definitely is going to look to score more.
Value Play - Khris Middleton

Power Forward - Luis Scola
Scola played really well in the first game, despite getting into foul trouble. I wouldn't start him with Hibbert, but going with one or the other could pay off if one of them gets into foul trouble again.
Power Forward - Zach Randolph
He's always a fantasy monster and against a depleted Pacer lineup, he should continue to dominate. Memphis will definitely be feeding it to their big men all game long.

Value Play - Nerlens Noel
Center - Roy Hibbert
I mentioned how the Grizzlies will be playing through their big men tonight, which could be good for Roy. He'll have a lot of block opportunities with the majority of shots coming from the paint. He also has a much bigger role on offense with the absence of every well known Pacer.

Center - DeMarcus Cousins
As always, I like Cousins. He had an awful shooting game and still put up 20 and 11. I think he has a monster game tonight. He is also the reason I'm avoiding Aldridge. Cousins gets people in foul trouble and that is the number 1 cause of disappointing fantasy performances in the NBA.
Consider - Marc Gasol
