Building The Perfect NBA FanDuel Lineup For March 14

+Read full article

We have an excellent nine game slate tonight and nearly every superstar that you can think of is playing. This means that building the perfect NBA FanDuel lineup for tonight will be a challenging one, but I know that we’re up for the task. Let’s get to work!

(PG) Russell Westbrook - Oklahoma City Thunder - $10,400

Through his 11-game history against Damian Lillard, Russell Westbrook is averaging 48.3 fantasy points and he will face him again tonight. It's another great matchup for the former UCLA Bruin as Portland is giving up the 10th most fantasy points to PGs this month. Westbrook has failed to eclipse the 40-fantasy-point barrier over his last two games, but I feel that he will go off for 50-plus tonight.

I already liked Shelvin Mack tonight since he has been a great value selection at PG lately. However, with the news that Gordon Hayward won't play tonight, I like Mack even more. He will face the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight and Kyrie Irving is not known to be an elite defender. This should lead to another night of exceeding value for Mack as I expect him to score at least 22 fantasy points.

Devin Booker has been on fire lately and I don't expect him to cool tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Minnesota has struggled to defend SGs this year and they've only been average in that regard this month. Booker needs to score 32.5 fantasy points in order to make value tonight and I can see him scoring 35-plus.

Zach LaVine's production has been down a bit lately, but I'm expecting a bounceback performance against the Phoenix Suns tonight. Phoenix has struggled to contain SGs all season long, and despite some small improvements this month, it shouldn't prevent LaVine from scoring 25-35 fantasy points in a fast-paced contest.

Over his last four games, Andrew Wiggins is averaging 34.9 fantasy points and he has a great chance to score a similar number tonight. He gets to square off against the Phoenix Suns and they've given up the seventh most fantasy points per game to SFs this month. This should lead to the Canadian superstar scoring at least 30 with 40-plus upside.

Matt Barnes let a lot of people down in his last game as he was only able to score 13.2 fantasy points. This was a disappointment since he was averaging 40.8 over his previous two games. He should be able to bounce back against the Houston Rockets as they've given up the ninth most fantasy points per game to SFs this month. Barnes should finish with at least 27 fantasy points.

I know that a good chunk of people don't like this matchup due to the presence of Gorgui Dieng and Karl-Anthony Towns, but I still like Alex Len tonight. He is averaging 38.7 fantasy points over his last five games and would be exceeding value if he scored that tonight. Minnesota is average against opposing PFs and I like Len's length advantage over his defenders. He should finished with 30-40 fantasy points.

Tobias Harris has been an extremely consistent option ever since he joined the Detroit Pistons. He is averaging 29.5 fantasy points over his last 10 games and he gets to face the Washington Wizards tonight. The Wizards are ranked 20th in defensive efficiency against opposing PFs and this should lead to a 30-plus performance for Harris.

I debated between Hassan Whiteside and Karl-Anthony Towns for a while, but then finally settled on Whiteside. He gets to face the Denver Nuggets tonight and he destroyed them in their last meeting for 62.4 fantasy points. While I don't expect such an insane output this time around, I do feel that Whiteside is a fairly safe bet for at least 38 fantasy points with 50-plus upside.
