NASCAR fantasy players who picked Kyle Larson last week scored big when Larson won his first race for Hendrick Motorsports.

Larson's victory vaulted him from ninth to third in the NASCAR fantasy standings at NASCAR.com. He's a solid NASCAR fantasy pick this weekend at Phoenix as well with three top-five finishes in his last four races there.

Though he will be pricey, Kevin Harvick is the driver to have in your NASCAR fantasy lineup at Phoenix. He has nine career victories there and 15 straight top-10 finishes, including 12 top-fives. Chase Elliott will also be a hot NASCAR fantasy pick after his win there last November.

While Harvick and Elliott will be hot picks, the key for NASCAR fantasy players will be finding cheaper options for the back end of your lineup. DraftKings and FanDuel both like drivers like Aric Almirola, Alex Bowman, Cole Custer and Tyler Reddick. Another great NASCAR fantasy pick is veteran Ryan Newman, who has two wins at Phoenix.
