Updated:
The 2022-23 NBA Playoffs are here. If you need some advice on your FanDuel fantasy basketball lineup for tonight's slate, The Duel is here to help.
Here are three players to target and two to avoid in Tuesday, 4/11, NBA DFS action.
FanDuel DFS Picks Tonight 4/11/2023
Anthony Davis Fantasy
Target Anthony Davis, PF/C, Los Angeles Lakers ($11,600): Anthony Davis is the highest-priced player on Tuesday's slate, but he's worth every penny. The big man was on a tear to end the regular season, averaging 56.6 FanDuel fantasy points over his last seven games prior to the play-in tournament. Now he draws a Minnesota Timberwolves team that gave up the ninth-most rebounds per game and ranked middle-of-the-pack in points allowed during the 2022-23 campaign. Making Davis' case even stronger is the fact Minnesota will be without Rudy Gobert in this one, creating a huge opportunity in the paint for him to feast.
Kyle Anderson Fantasy
Target Kyle Anderson, SF/PF, Minnesota Timberwolves ($6,500): Gobert's suspension, paired with Jaden McDaniels' hand injury, will likely result in heavy minutes for Kyle Anderson tonight. He's been great down the stretch for Minnesota, stuffing the stat sheet en route to an average of 31.26 fantasy PPG over his last five outings. Both of these teams rank top seven in pace as well, and those extra possessions should only help Anderson contribute across the board in the box score.
Victor Oladipo Fantasy
Target Victor Oladipo, SG, Miami Heat ($5,900): Victor Oladipo enters the playoffs with some nice momentum on his side. He balled out of the final two games of the year, posting a season-high 30 points in the penultimate contest and following that up with 19 points and 8 assists in the finale. Now he has just the matchup to keep his scoring resurgence going in the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks gave up sixth-most PPG this past season, including allowing the sixth-best opponent field goal percentage in the league. As the lowest-scoring team by PPG in 2022-23, Miami will need players on the floor who can get buckets in this do-or-die contest. That bodes well for Oladipo impressing as a value play tonight.
Dejounte Murray Fantasy
Avoid Dejounte Murray, PG/SG, Atlanta Hawks ($8,500): Dejounte Murray finish his first year in Atlanta particularly strong. The combo guard failed to surpass even 40 fantasy points over his last five games and struggled to put together the eye-popping box scores he's certainly capable of. A date with the Heat won't make things any easier for Murray. Miami posted the second-slowest pace in the league this season, and it'd be no surprise if Erik Spoelstra's squad leans into that playstyle even more to negate the Hawks' quick attack. With the Heat owning a top defense to boot, it's hard to back Murray tonight.
D'Angelo Russell Fantasy
Avoid D'Angelo Russell, PG, Minnesota Timberwolves ($7,500): D'Angelo Russell is the clear third fiddle on the Lakers' offense, and nothing about this arrangement should change in the biggest game of the season. Russell has been in the backseat during Los Angeles' playoff push, failing to record 30 fantasy points in each of his past four outings. Expect the ball to primarily be in the hands of LeBron James and Anthony Davis tonight, leaving little room for Russell to be fantasy-relevant.
