Here is a look at the Squad Up daily NBA fantasy picture for Sunday, Dec. 4:

Dynamic Duos

• PG Chris Paul (84K) and PF Blake Griffin (79K), Clippers (vs. Pacers): The Clippers are averaging 109.7 points per 100 possessions, the fourth-highest rate in the league. Indiana's defense ranks in the bottom half of the league, allowing 104.2 points per 100 possessions. The Pacers average over 100 possessions per game, creating more opportunities for L.A.'s two biggest stars.

• PG Tim Frazier (47K) and PF Anthony Davis (105K), Pelicans (at Thunder): The value of Davis speaks for itself, but Frazier has played more than 30 minutes in eight consecutive games. He peaked at 21 points and 14 assists during the stretch, but averages of 10.9 PPG, 7.2 APG and 2.9 RPG easily allow him to return value as a contrarian pick.

• PG Darren Collison (43K) and PF DeMarcus Cousins (91K), Kings (at Knicks): Collison's playing time remains somewhat inconsistent, but he has attempted at least six field goals in each game since returning from injury. He has gotten to the free-throw line at least four times in five of his past six games, providing a reliable bonus.

Bargain Plays

• SF Jeff Green (32K), Magic (at Pistons): Green has totaled 30 points in 50 minutes over his past two games. He attempted a season-high 13 field goals in his most recent outing, including 2-for-4 from 3-point range. He added six rebounds and three assists, his most rebounds since securing 10 in an Oct. 29 game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

• SG Arron Afflalo (25K), Kings (at Knicks): Afflalo has started 17 of 19 games this season, but he's still averaging just 26.2 minutes per game, his lowest average since his second year in the league. He has been held below 22 minutes in four consecutive games, but a matchup against the Knicks' 27th-ranked team defense could provide more opportunity.

• C Joakim Noah (27K), Knicks (vs. Kings): Noah has missed two games due to an ankle injury, so keep watch on his status leading up to tip off. His production has been nearly entirely dependent on rebounding this season, as he's averaging a career-low in points. He has been able to add 3.1 assists per game, and Sacramento's 23rd-ranked defense provides a potential boost.

Top Fades

• PF Thaddeus Young (51K), Pacers (at Clippers): Young hasn't hit 20 points in three consecutive games, and he hasn't reached 10 rebounds in five games. He was held to just four points in his most recent outings, going 2-for-6 from the field. His usage is far too low to trust, especially against strong rebounding teams.

• SG J.J. Redick (38K), Clippers (vs. Pacers): Redick has topped 20 points in two of his past four games, going a combined 7-for-12 from 3-point range in those outings. The Pacers hold their opponents to just 33 percent shooting from beyond the arc.

• C Nikola Vucevic (62K), Magic (at Pistons): Vucevic has topped 10 rebounds in 10 consecutive games. He was held to fewer than 10 points in just two of those games, and he's averaging just 12.4 PPG on the season. The Pistons have the league's ninth-best rebound differential, capping Vucevic's upside with non-guaranteed scoring.

Contrarian Options

• C Steven Adams (41K), Thunder (vs. Pelicans): The Pelicans rank T28 in team rebound differential, allowing their opponents to grab 4.4 more boards per game. Adams is averaging 7.8 RPG on the year but has scored more than 10 points in five of his past six. The chance for the double-double bonus makes him a strong choice.

• PG Jeff Teague (65K), Pacers (at Clippers): Teague averaged 16.4 PPG, 6.7 APG and 4.1 RPG in November, reaching 20 points in seven games. He didn't record a single double-double, but he provided more than adequate production across the three categories while adding two steals per game. He'll be mostly overlooked while going head-to-head with Paul.

• SF Andre Roberson (35K), Thunder (vs. Pelicans): Roberson has scored 10 points in each of his past two games and the Pelicans rank among the worst teams in the league at defending small forwards. He has topped 30 minutes in five consecutive games.
