Daily Fantasy Basketball Playbook: Best FanDuel, DraftKings picks and advice for Feb. 26 image

Welcome to the daily fantasy basketball Playbook for Friday, featuring DFS picks and advice from Sporting News partners FantasyAlarm.com. A pair of key Eastern Conference matchups (Cavaliers at Raptors and Bulls at Hawks) highlight tonight's action, but DFS owners will likely stay away from those matchups if they're looking for the best values for tonight's games.

There are plenty of other games with higher projected point totals, and DFS owners shouldn't be afraid to spend up at shooting guard and center and look for values at the forward spots.
