Daily Fantasy NBA Picks, Salaries and Betting Lines – March 6: DeMarcus Cousins

Following a slow NBA night on Thursday, Friday will be great for the daily fantasy player with 12 games on tap.

First let’s explore our picks from Wednesday night and see how we performed. 

We were all over Utah’s Derrick Favors (PF) $7.2K and Rudy Gobert (C) $6.5K as well as the Pelicans Omer Asik (C) $4.9K.  We also liked Markieff Morris (PF) $6.3K.

Gobert again came through with another riveting performance, scoring 10 baskets, 16 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.  That’s closing in on 40 fantasy points and he only needed around 32.

Favors, a favorite around these parts of late, managed 16 baskets, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, which unfortunately was not good enough to make value.

Yes Omer Asik only needed around 24 fantasy points to make value but ended up with closer to 15.

Morris only need around 30 fantasy points and that is pretty much where he ended up for the Suns in a showdown against Orlando Wednesday night.

Brandon Knight, who we suggested to stay clear of after some rough performances, came through big time last night.

Here are some Friday night picks and, oh boy, do we want DeMarcus Cousins (C) $9800 The Sacramento Kings center goes up against an Orlando team that gives up the 2^nd most fantasy points to centers.

Oh how we are loving this Jazz in their fantasy-friendly matches that are typically rewarding players.

Up against the Sixers in their last showdown, Gordon Hayward (SF) $8.1K accumulated 15 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.  The only problem is, Hayward just failed to make value in that game with his high price.  Gambling911.com will go out on a limb and suggest he’ll do much better this time out.  After all, the 76ers are dead last against power forwards.

We will have more picks throughout the day Friday so enjoy.
