Five Guys Expert Daily NBA Top Picks 3-11-14
There’s nothing better than our expert daily NBA top picks paying off!
Last night rewarded two of our expert daily NBA top picks handsomely. Kemba Walker and Al Jefferson both had monster nights, and while Marcus Thornton was certainly disappointing he was cheap enough that his absence wasn’t a crushing blow. All-in-all it was a decent showing for our expert daily NBA top picks.
Tonight is one of the tougher slates I’ve encountered, and with a number of avoidable matchups on the table it will be more important than ever to make sure we have the safest expert daily NBA top picks available. Whenever the going gets tough it’s important to ensure we counter with safety. When volatility increases an even greater premium is placed on consistency, and when you combine that with the few players who have good matchups this evening it becomes an excellent recipe for success. Let’s take a look at the players who are ready to come through in the clutch tonight.
Five Guys Expert Daily NBA Top Picks
Isaiah Thomas $11,600 - As I mentioned above, many of tonight’s matchups are simply abysmal. Not the case for Thomas though, as the Pistons have been a training ground for point guard excellency, routinely surrendering massive outings to talented court generals. Thomas contains the upside necessary to turn in a monster showing, and with the Pistons ranking near the bottom of the league in assists allowed you can assume he’ll pad his stats quite handily this evening.
Monta Ellis $10,800 - Ellis has been solid this season, and while lacking a portion of his elite upside from earlier years, is still more than capable of turning in a serviceable evening. Tonight represents more of a neutral matchup than a positive one, but with many players stuck in untouchable scenarios a neutral matchup will do just fine. It helps that his price tag is also extremely affordable.
Klay Thompson $8,700 - Early-season Klay was much more impressive than the Klay we’ve seen the last two months, but it seems as though he’s finally shooting his way out of it. With over 30 fantasy points in four of his last six games he becomes a much more appealing option. The Mavericks play up in pace, and the price is right here.
Khris Middleton $8,400 - Middleton has finally strung together a run of consistency, and the only thing that could derail him this evening is the impending blowout in Minnesota. The Timberwolves are known for employing a fast-paced style of play, and that means the slow-paced Bucks are liable to get run out of the arena at some point. I think at this price tag you can take the risk.
David Lee $10,600 - Lee has been slowed by various ailments and illnesses over the past month, but he finally appears ready to put all those maladies behind him. The minutes limit he was operating under seems to finally be gone as well, and it comes at an advantageous time for the Warriors. Tonight they take on the conference rival Dallas Mavericks, and a win here would go a long way towards determining playoff positioning.
