The Tuesday slate has been pretty small each of the past couple of weeks. However, tonight we have been blessed with a decent 10-game slate and all of the games having a projected total over 200. Let’s go ahead and take a look at my lineup for tonight’s slate.

Point Guard
Russell Westbrook (OKC): $10,200 at SAC
Despite once again nearly averaging a triple-double in points, assists, and rebounds, Russell Westbrook has a salary just north of $10,000. In my opinion, this is a pretty good value for someone who is more than capable of putting up 60 or 65 FanDuel points on any given night, let alone in a matchup against the Kings. Westbrook should be locked into all of your lineups tonight.
J.J. Barea (DAL): $4,000 at WAS
J.J. Barea is not starting for the Mavericks, but he’s still averaging 22.5 minutes per game and is carrying a pretty hefty 27.6 usage percentage with the second unit. His upside might be capped for GPPs, but he should be a pretty safe value cash game option to help fit in some other high-priced stars tonight.

Shooting Guard
Rodney Hood (UTA): $4,300 vs. PHI
Tonight is definitely a good night to go the value route at shooting guard and pay up at other positions. One cheap guard I like tonight is Rodney Hood. Hood has struggled with his consistency so far this season, but I do think he will have a decent game tonight in a huge up-tempo game for the Jazz. The 76ers currently have the fifth-highest team pace in the NBA this season.
Lou Williams (LAC): 5,000 at SAS
Lou Williams has not done a ton since moving to the Clippers this season, but he did see an uptick in minutes with Danilo Gallinari coming out of the game with an injury. It is sounding like Gallinari will not return to the lineup tonight, so Williams could be the primary beneficiary in terms of usage in Gallinari’s absence. The Spurs used to be a team we would completely avoid, but they are no longer one of the most elite defensive units in the league.
Small Forward
Giannis Antetokounmpo (MIL): $11,700 at CLE
The “Greek Freak” is another player who you should consider locking into all of your lineups tonight. He always seems to thrive in this marquee matchup against LeBron including a 65.6 FanDuel performance earlier this season against the Cavs.
James Ennis III (MEM): $4,000 at POR
Another value option I really like on tonight’s slate is James Ennis III. Ennis has been starting at small forward for the Grizzlies this season and has been averaging right around 20 FanDuel points per game. I expect him to exceed that average tonight in a huge up-tempo game for the Grizzlies against the Trail Blazers.
Power Forward
Paul Millsap (DEN): $7,400 vs. BKN
Paul Millsap had a really disappointing game the other night against the Warriors, but that performance was purely an outlier where the Nuggets just got ran out of the building. Outside of that bad game, Millsap has been averaging 39.06 FanDuel points over his previous five games. He should be able to hit that average or exceed it in a great matchup against the Nets tonight. Right now the Nuggets currently have the highest projected team total on the slate.
John Henson (MIL): $5,000 at CLE
The Bucks just traded Greg Monroe and a first-round pick to the Suns for Eric Bledsoe. This means that Jason Kidd can no longer play games with us flip-flopping back and forth between John Henson or Greg Monroe as the primary center on any given night. Henson should definitely get all the minutes that he can handle and be an outstanding value option tonight at this salary.
Center
Rudy Gobert (UTA): $8,100 vs. PHI
Rudy Gobert has had a couple of down performances in a row, but that is not going to frighten me from using him tonight. Gobert is arguably one of the best defensive centers in the league, and he currently has the most blocks per game in the league. Tonight he has an excellent matchup against the 76ers, who have allowed the most FanDuel points to opposing centers this season.
