NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup For March 6: Curry To Bounce Back vs. Bucks

NBA daily fantasy incapsulates the worlds of fantasy sports and sports betting into one fun and riveting contest that can lead to massive gains for those who participate. 

The DFS lineup will incorporate a standard starting lineup of a PG, SG, SF, PF, and C, along with an additional G, F, and UTIL slot at a salary of $50,000 which cannot be exceeded. Points are allocated based on the statistical production from each individual player that night. 

Here's a look at our lineup for the NBA's slate of games on Wednesday, March 6, 2024:

PG: Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors (Vs. Bucks)

Monday's 8.8-point fantasy performance in a 52-point loss to the Boston Celtics was uncommon for Stephen Curry, as it was just the fourth time all season he failed to score in double figures. That won't happen again, at least not anytime soon. 

SG: Ayo Dosunmu, Chicago Bulls (At Jazz)

Only three players in the Association are averaging more minutes over the last eight games than Ayo Dosunmu. More playing time means greater numbers, with Dosunmu having scored at least 20 points in four of those outings.

SF: Kelly Oubre Jr, Philadelphia 76ers (Vs. Grizzlies)

With All-Star Tyrese Maxey out with a mild concussion on Tuesday, Kelly Oubre Jr. dropped a season-high 30 points while adding six rebounds and four dimes in 36 minutes. If Maxey sits again, Oubre Jr. could have another stellar box score in the cards for fantasy players.

PF: Bobby Portis, Milwaukee Bucks (At Warriors)

Giannis Antetokounmpo's absence on Monday benefited Bobby Portis' numbers immensely as he came off the bench to notch a monster double-double of 28 points and 16 rebounds in less than 30 minutes. Keep an eye on Antetokounmpo's status for Wednesday, if him sitting with an Achilles injury means more of this level of production from the veteran.

C: Wendell Carter Jr, Orlando Magic (At Wizards)

A forgotten part of the Orlando Magic's offensive gameplan, Wendell Carter Jr. is still an asset to both the team and fantasy players when his defensive contributions shine through. He's registered at least 30 fantasy points in three of his last six games, with at least one block and/or steal in five of those appearances. 

G: Luke Kennard, Memphis Grizzlies (At 76ers)

Starting on Monday for the 14th time this season, Luke Kennard connected on a season-best six 3-pointers for 25 points in 26 minutes. There's no reason why he shouldn't be receiving a healthy dose of PT on the Memphis Grizzlies lacking in such firepower.

F: Keegan Murray, Sacramento Kings (At Lakers)

Make that five games in a row for Keegan Murray with at least one steal and one block, attributing to at least 27.5 fantasy points during that stretch. Probably the fourth option offensively, at best for the Sacramento Kings, Murray still fills stat sheets enough in other facets to warrant usage. 

UTIL: John Collins, Utah Jazz (Vs. Bulls)

John Collins' 49.75 fantasy points on Monday, which featured a career-high six rejections, were his most since Dec. 8. It could be a one-off, mind you, but his 32 and 36 fantasy points in the two prior games, respectively, were still strong.
