Welcome to the daily fantasy basketball Playbook for Tuesday, featuring DFS picks and advice from Sporting News partners FantasyAlarm.com. Will Steph Curry (ankle, questionable) play? That's a huge question as we build tonight's DFS lineups. If he's out, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green become even better plays.
We're also keeping an eye on Derrick Rose's status; he'll be a game-time decision with a hamstring injury. Dwyane Wade should also continue to see a high usage rate with Chris Bosh still out.
