There are seven NBA games on tap Tuesday evening. Which players should you build around and which players should you fade? Our experts have the answers.Todays panel includes ESPN Fantasys Kyle Soppe and Joe Kaiser, plus DFS expert Al Zeidenfeld.Players to build aroundKyle Soppe -- Jrue Holiday, New Orleans PelicansFor me, tonight is about building around a point guard. Plenty of people will finagle their roster in an effort to fit Russell Westbrook into their lineups against the least efficient defense in basketball, and while I dont think thats a bad play, I dont think its maximizing value. If you prefer stability at the point guard position at a price that wont break your bank, Damian Lillard is the play.However, youre like me and trying to spend big elsewhere, then Holiday is the man for you. Turf toe? I aint worried bout no stinkin turf toe. The man played 40 aggressive minutes on Sunday, setting season highs in both field goal and free throw attempts, so Id say its safe to consider him healthy. Over the last five years, Holiday has been good for roughly 10 rebounds-plus-assists, a skill set that raises his floor. The Pellies are going to have to score and score often to keep up in this one, a style of game that makes their PG nearly a lock to achieve value on his very reasonable price tag.Joe Kaiser -- Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City ThunderMr. Triple-Double faces Portland a night after the Trail Blazers dropped a hard-fought game to the Clippers in Los Angeles. In other words, this is the perfect time for the games best DFS player to face one of the worst defenses in the NBA. Pay up for Westbrook tonight.Al Zeidenfeld -- Damian Lillard, Portland Trail BlazersFollowing a long road trip, Lillard and the Trailblazers are back at home, where he averages almost 10 percent more DraftKings points a night. Outside of? Westbrook, Lillard is the point guard with the best percentage chance of accessing 55-plus fantasy points and his salary is several thousand dollars less than Westbrooks.Players to fadeKyle Soppe -- Andrew Wiggins, Minnesota TimberwolvvesWiggins is an outstanding athlete capable of the highlight play, but how high is his DFS ceiling really? Youre looking at a player who is shooting under 39 percent this season when he is eight or more feet away from the bucket and is averaging under seven rebounds-plus-assists this season.dddddddddddd Is it possible he drops 40? Maybe. But Im not betting on it against Jimmy Butler and the ninth-most efficient defense in basketball. If you are hell bent on chasing a volume scorer, give me Devin Booker against the Knicks tonight instead. Its simple economics for me ... the reward does not outweigh the risk in this spot.Joe Kaiser -- Devin Booker, Phoenix SunsBooker continues to disappoint in DFS this season, and while hes always capable of a big scoring game, he doesnt do enough of the other stuff (rebounds, assists, steals) necessary to be a force in DFS. His salary remains just under $6,000 on DraftKings and FanDuel, and Id prefer to go for other shooting guards who exceed 30 DFS points on a regular basis, like the similarly priced Zach LaVine.Al Zeidenfeld -- Kevin Durant, Golden State WarriorsIt hurts me to do this. Durant is very likely the player Ive rostered more than any other in my five years of playing Daily Fantasy basketball, but this year, I have to pick my spots with him. Tonight is just not going to be one of them with the other high-end options who have either better matchups pr games that project to be contested more closely than the Warriors against the Pelicans, not to mention players on teams with less competition for shots. I just dont see the need to chase Durant tonight with all the other options on the menu at SF/PF.Al Zeidenfeld is a promoter & user at DraftKings (Username: Al_Smizzle) and plays on his personal account in games he offers advice on.
