NBA Daily Fantasy Picks, Salaries and Betting Lines – March 7: James Hardin’s Ni

Gambling911.com has your NBA daily fantasy picks, salaries and betting lines for Saturday’s eight games.

First a quick look at last night’s picks where we recommended DeMarcus Cousins (C) $9800 and Gordon Hayward (SF) $8.1K.

With 29 baskets scored, 12 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 blocks and just one turnover, we’d have to say Cousins made value.  In fact, Cousins made 5X value where he only needed to go 4X with a price tag right around the $10K mark.

Hayward was also on fire scoring 25 baskets, 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal.  He easily made value.

Here is a look at some of today’s top picks.

The Suns are ranked third to last in points allowed per game so not surprisingly the oddsmakers have the total for their game against Cleveland set at 211

Whenever you have a game featuring Cleveland with the potential for plenty of scoring, one cannot help but to not overlook Lebron James (SF) $10.5K. 

Needing roughly 42 fantasy points, James had a field day against the Suns last time he faced Phoenix.  The end result was 33 baskets, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal, giving him 50 fantasy points before any deductions for 5 turnovers.

James is looking to rebound from a rare dismal performance against the Hawks last night.

George Hill (PG) $6.5K needs roughly 32 fantasy points.  He pretty much got that the last time he faced New York and this time it’s at home.  Hill will also have the freshest legs on the team in this back-to-back due to early foul trouble last night.  New York has trouble against opposing shooting guards.

Atlanta this evening goes up against a Sixers squad that has allowed the 2nd most fantasy points to opposing shooting guards this season while ranking dead last against power forwards.

Paul Millsap (PF) $8.2K has to be added to the evening’s equation. 

The last meeting between these two teams in Atlanta was a relatively close one so we don’t see players minutes being reduced much.  Milsap needs around 33 fantasy points and nearly got that the last time he faced this lowly Philadelphia team.

Houston vs. Denver – That’s an awesome fantasy matchup for the Rockets.

The Nuggets have allowed the 3rd most fantasy points to opposing shooting guards, 2nd most fantasy points to opposing power forwards and the 2nd most fantasy points to opposing centers. 

The center position is not exactly Houston’s strong point coming into this game but shooting guards, we have one of the best in James Harden (SG) $10.5K and power forwards, pick from either Donatas Motiejunas (PF) $5.3K or Terrence Jones (PF) $7K.

Hardin needs 41 fantasy points and scored that many baskets the last time facing off against Denver.  Tack on 4 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 steals, he was flirting with a 60-plus fantasy night.

Jones has been accumulating 35 or more fantasy points in recent games and only needs that much to make value.
