FanDuel NBA: Best Picks, Lineup For Dec. 26
Punt Play of the Night: Courtney Lee, Memphis Grizzlies ($4,000) vs. Charlotte Hornets
Lee has had some roller coaster of a career. After being drafted in the first round and starting for the Orlando Magic team that lost to the L.A. Lakers in the 2009 NBA Finals, the former Hilltopper was traded four times before landing with the Grizzlies in early 2014.
Although Lee fell out of favor earlier this season, he has since rejoined the starting lineup, as Memphis seems to have settled on a small-ball look after multiple iterations. Lee’s output can be wildly erratic from one night to the next, but since Charlotte is fifth-worst overall against opposing 2 guards, he’s probably worth a flier Saturday night given his low cost.
My Lineup for Dec. 26:
Position | Name | Cost |
PG | George Hill | $5,400 |
PG | Isaiah Thomas | $8,300 |
SG | Courtney Lee | $4,000 |
SG | Rodney Hood | $4,600 |
SF | Matt Barnes | $5,300 |
SF | Carmelo Anthony | $8,500 |
PF | Jared Sullinger | $5,900 |
PF | Anthony Davis | $10,400 |
C | Karl-Anthony Towns | $7,600 |
Total Cost | $60,000 |
