Dennis Smith Jr. (NY)

FanDuel ($7,000/26.75 FPPG)

DraftKings ($6,000/27.3 FPPG)

In New York’s unexpected win against the Spurs Smith Jr. performed well, draining 47% of his field goals and putting up 19 points, 13 assists, 6 rebounds as well as two steals giving him a double-double. This performance marked the 7th time in 9 games that Smith Jr. has played for the Knicks that he has scored double digit points. Smith Jr. should be seeing big minutes as one of New York’s only major and effective offense weapons, making him a great value pick for fantasy rosters. 

Danilo Gallinari (LAC)

FanDuel ($7,300/31.38 FPPG)

DraftKings ($6,300/32.6 FPPG)

In his less than average 23 minutes of playing time in the Clippers victory against the Knicks on Sunday, Gallinari sunk 53.3% of his field goals and 50% of his three pointers giving him 20 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. He’s put up above 25 fantasy points in his last 7 contests, 4 in which he accrued above 30 FP including a 40.3 FP performance in the Clippers’ win against the Grizzlies 10 days ago. He will probably return to playing more minutes tonight as the Clippers visit the Lakers, giving fantasy players an opportunity for a player with high upside with little risk involved.

Buddy Hield (SAC)

FanDuel ($7,600/31.60 FPPG)

DraftKings ($7,000/33.6 FPPG)

With Marvin Bagley III out with a knee injury, Hield will be seeing an increase in his usage tonight as the Kings face the Knicks. In half of Sacramento’s last 4 games, Hield has scored above 30 points, including 32 points in a one point loss to the Bucks and a team-high 34 points in a victory over the Thunder on February 23rd. His fantasy performance has been impressive lately with Hield having scored consistently above 30 fantasy points including a handful of 40 and 50 FP games since January 25th. Fantasy players and Sacramento Kings fans alike will be hoping that Hield can keep up with the extra pressure on him to perform up to par for increased minutes in Bagley’s absence.
