The point guard position will look to carry FanDuel owners tonight with the top three options available. Those options include Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors, John Wall of the Washington Wizards and Chris Paul of the Los Angeles Clippers.

Curry put together a solid stat line on Friday Night finishing with 31 points to go with three rebounds, five assists and two steals to finish with 43.1 fantasy points on FanDuel. Paul was the second of the two point guards who were in action last night as he posted his second straight double double in route to another big night on FanDuel with 54 points.

The last of those three options is Wall who will be playing his third straight game in a row since the NBA All-Star break came to an end. Wall has posted back to back games with at least 45.6 fantasy points but the big question will be whether or not the team will look to restrict his minutes or will fatigue set in for Wall as well as the rest of his Wizards teammates.

For us that is exactly why we are going to look at the Miami Heat who welcome the Wizards tonight to find some FanDuel Bargains. The Heat were without both Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and Hassan Whiteside last night opening up the door for other options. Of those three Whiteside looks to be the only option that will be available on Saturday after serving a one game suspension.

One of the bargains is Justise Winslow who started in place of Bosh last night and finished with 37 minutes. The added playing time helped Winslow turn in a 25.8 point fantasy performance. While we are going to monitor the lineups today we like Winslow tonight if he gets a second straight start for Bosh. We also like Gerald Green as well who started in place of Wade on Friday Night. Each of these plays tonight on FanDuel will be solely based on whether or not they are in the starting roster.

Here is our NBA FanDuel lineup for Saturday February 20th, 2016.

PG – Stephen Curry ($10,800): There is now way we would pass up the combination of Curry and Paul tonight as they clash at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. We expect each of these point guards to do everything in their own way to help deliver a win for their team.

PG – Chris Paul ($10,000): If Paul wasn’t leading his Los Angeles Clippers against the Golden State Warriors tonight we could have gone to one of the cheaper options at the point guard position. In the end Paul and Curry are just to hard to resist tonight with a limited four game NBA slate taking to the hardwood. If you do elect to go with a cheaper option we suggest going with Goran Dragic who is coming off a 42 point fantasy night.

SG – Gerald Green ($3,500): With Wade possible out for a second straight game, Green is expected to see extended minutes tonight against a Wizards team that will be playing their third straight game. Green finished with 37 minutes and 26 fantasy points on Friday Night.

SG – Aaron Afflalo ($5,000): Afflalo is one of those fantasy options that might get many fantasy owners frustrated. The New York Knicks shooting guard has posted at least 20 fantasy points in eight of ten games but is numbers could be much higher after posting at least 38 minutes in nine of the last ten games.

SF – Justise Winslow ($4,000): As the Heat continue to deal with injury concerns Winslow will be a solid fantasy option at just $4k. That being said if he doesn’t get the start we would suggest looking to another cheap option such as Mike Scott for the Atlanta Hawks.

SF – Luol Deng ($4,800): If you were lucky enough to ride Deng on Friday Night you probably posted some big time fantasy numbers as the Heat’s veteran finished with 50.2 fantasy points. We are riding the Heat tonight simply based on the fact the Wizards will be playing their third straight game in three nights.

PF – Gorgui Dieng ($6,500): Dieng has been hot over his last four games posting at least 33 fantasy points while posting a big time 51.1 fantasy performance just before the All-Star Break. It will be hard to pass up on Dieng tonight against the New york Knicks as we expect him to see at least 35-40 minutes.

PF – Kristaps Porzingis ($6,800): With the limited action on the hardwood tonight the options were thin at a few of the positions. That being said Porzingis has been solid posting at least 33 fantasy points in four straight games. If we can get a big night from him it would go a long way into helping us cash in.

C – DeAndre Jordan ($8,600): As we looked at the center position we looked at the games that were going to be fast paced with a ton of shots. The top option will be the Warriors/Clippers matchup tonight making it easy to go with Jordan at the center position.

Here are a few of the other fantasy plays we like tonight including a few sleepers:

PG – Goran Dragic & Ramon Sessions

SG – Zach LaVine & Bradley Beal

SF – Wesley Johnson & Otto Porter

PF – Marreese Speights & Jared Dudley (If he starts)

C – Robin Lopez
