NBA DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks 11/21/19

Point Guard

C.J. McCollum ($7,500) vs Bucks– There is only 2 games in tonight’s slate so it is going to be tough to find some guys who won’t be rostered in pretty much every lineup but I think we have to have McCollum. Damian Lillard is not expected to play again tonight with a back issue so most of the scoring and playmaking will be left in his hands. In his last game without Lillard McCollum scored 22 PTS with 5 AST and 4 REBs and I think we can even expect more this time around. The Bucks interior defense is very good but with McCollum doing most of his work outside I think we should see a very good night of play from him.

Shooting Guard

Mikal Bridges ($3,900) vs Pelicans– We are really going to have to reach for some value here so with the injuries to the backcourt of the Suns I like Mikal Bridges tonight. He played a season high 26 minutes in the Suns last game and took advantage scoring 20 PTS with 5 REB which was good for 30.75 FPTS. This was his best game of the year and it was good to see his shot falling. Bridges hasn’t played very well this season in limited minutes but I am hoping that last game will carry over into this one and the former first rounder will finally get going.

Small Forward

Giannis Antetokounmpo ($10,600) vs Trail Blazers– Giannis is a player you need to have in your lineup on this night with only 2 games on the slate. He is averaging 61.2 FPTS across his last 4 games with an excellent 33 PPG 13.8 RPG line while shooting almost 60% from the field. He has been dominant and nobody has been able to stop him. The Blazers aren’t a very good defensive team and I don’t see anybody that will be able to contain the Greek Freak. Look for Giannis to continue his dominance and easily score over 50 FPTS tonight.

Power Forward

Nassir Little ($4,100) vs Bucks– With the Blazers injuries, rookie Nassir Little has been able to carve out some more playing time and he has done well with it. He posted his first career double-double in their last game grabbing 11 boards with 12 points while shooting 5/6 from the field. Carmelo likely took a little bit of playing time away from him but Little is active enough on both ends to still be valuable at only $4,100 in a two game slate. If this game gets out of hand we should likely see Little get a lot more playing time as well. If you want to look deeper for some players I think Little is one of your guys.

Center

Jaxson Hayes ($5,100) vs Suns– Jaxson Hayes has also received a lot more playing time with the injuries to the Pelicans front court. He is expected to get a lot of playing time again tonight and has been excellent on the defensive end with 8 blocks in his last 3 games and looks like a double-double threat if he gets enough playing time. He is an extremely good athlete and flies all around the floor which is why I like him to reach double-double territory tonight. I would expect 25+ FPTS tonight vs a Suns team that is missing Deandre Ayton and Aron Baynes with injuries/suspension.

Sleeper Play

Jevon Carter ($3,300) vs Pelicans– Ricky Rubio is not expected to play again for the Suns tonight and if the Suns stick with the same lineup we should see Jevon Carter in the starting lineup. He played 24 minutes in their last game scoring 14.5 FPTS and was a little hesitant to get let the ball fly but getting 1 game under his belt I think we could see that change. The Pelicans are allowing the most fantasy points to opposing guards on DK this season and with the playing time and defensive ability of Carter I think he can put together a solid night especially for someone priced this low.
