Top PG Picks:

Trae Young – DK: ($10,100)

Young was a little banged up after this weekend due to an ankle injury. However, he was able to play against Boston on Monday and rack up 49 fantasy points on DraftKings. His probable designation is most likely due to the Hawks not wanting to rush their young star back from injury. Nevertheless, the opponent tonight is Minnesota and this will be the second time these teams have played this year. In the first bout; Young racked up 57 fantasy points in 34 minutes of action. On top of that, Minnesota is ranked 22nd in the NBA against opposing PG’s.

Chris Paul – DK: ($7,500)

Paul has now recorded at least 33 fantasy points on DraftKings in eight of his last ten games. He is also on a three-game double-double streak at the moment. Tonight he s primed with a great match-up against Cleveland who is ranked 27th in the NBA against opposing PG’s. Paul has been filling up the stat sheet on both ends of the floor. In fact, he’s recorded at least 1 steal in eight of his last ten games. Look for him to have a floor of 35 fantasy points tonight.

Darius Garland – DK: ($5,000)

Garland is a great value play for tonight’s slate given how low his price is when compared to his final outputs and his playing time. He has put up at least 20 points on DraftKings in eight of his last ten games. Tonight he will be taking on the Thunder and they are ranked 25th in the NBA against opposing PG’s. Garland played OKC once this season and was able to rack up 33.8 fantasy points on DraftKings in 34 minutes of action. On top of all this, Garland has played at least 31 minutes in eight of his last nine games. Look for him to have a floor of 25 fantasy points tonight.


Top SG Picks:

D’Angelo Russell – DK: ($8,400)

Russell has now recorded at least 34 fantasy points on DraftKings in nine of his last ten games for the Warriors. Tonight he will get a friendly match-up against Brooklyn, who is currently ranked 29th in the NBA against opposing SG’s. He is slowly starting to round out his stat lines in other ways than just his typical dosage of scoring. He has grabbed at least 3 rebounds and 3 assists in each of his last 6 games. Look for him to have a floor of 36 fantasy points on DraftKings tonight.

Andrew Wiggins – DK: ($7,400)

Wiggins is a solid play on anything DFS tonight as he gets set to take on the lowly Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks are ranked 28th in the NBA against opposing SG’s which bodes well for his production tonight. Earlier in the season, Wiggins played Atlanta and racked up 38.5 fantasy points on DraftKings in 36 minutes of action. Look for Wiggins to have a floor of 35 with a ceiling of 50 fantasy points tonight.

Collin Sexton – DK: ($6,500)

Sexton appears to be taking the next step in his career over the last month. He’s now recorded at least 31 fantasy points on DraftKings in nine of his last ten games. That’s pretty good when considering he only averages 29.7 fantasy points per game on the season. He has been on fire and I am going to go for it once again tonight as he gets set to take on OKC. Earlier in the year when these two teams played, Sexton walked away with 40 fantasy points on DK in 35 minutes of action.

Mikal Bridges – DK: ($5,000)

Bridges is in a unique situation because Phoenix is without Tyler Johnson, Ty Jerome, Dario Saric, Cameron Johnson, Aaron Baynes, and Frank Kaminsky. With all of these injuries, it’s obvious that Bridges is going to see an uptick in his production. However, Mikal is very inconsistent and it’s hard to exactly pin-point his production. In fact, he’s put up 30+ fantasy points just three times in his last ten games. Then, on the contrary, he’s racked up under 20 points on DraftKings in three of his last ten games. He is a high-risk – high-reward kind of play tonight. Don’t go all-in on this play but sprinkle him in there.


Top SF Picks:

Kawhi Leonard – DK: ($9,800)

Kawhi Leonard continues to dominate no matter who the opponent is. The return of Paul George definitely eats into his ceiling a little bit. However, I expect the Clippers to rely on Leonard more tonight as they will be taking on a tough Miami opponent. Earlier in the season against Miami, Leonard put up a whopping 72 fantasy points on DraftKings. Look for him to have a floor of 45 fantasy points tonight.

Kelly Oubre Jr. – DK: ($7,000)

Oubre Jr. is in a great position due to all the injuries that Phoenix is currently dealing with. He has recorded at least 28 fantasy points in nine of his last ten games. Tonight he is playing Detroit and they are giving up 111 points per game to opposing teams this season. I’m targeting Oubre tonight because he has a high floor and ceiling; all for a reasonable price. The other reason is that Phoenix is missing two guards and three of their forwards going into tonight.

Dorian Finney-Smith – DK: ($6,100)

Dorian Finney Smith has really stepped up his production since Luka Doncic went down with an injury. He has now recorded at least 29 fantasy points on DraftKings in each of his last three games. I really don’t like having to spend this much money on him. However, he is taking on Memphis tonight and they are ranked 21st in the NBA against opposing SF’s. I am going to ride him for another game as he should have a floor of 25 fantasy points with a ceiling in the mid 40’s on DraftKings.

Bruce Brown – DK: ($4,900)

Bruce Brown is another player who is in a unique position tonight due to injuries. Detroit is going into tonight without Derrick Rose, Luke Kennard, and Svi Mykhailiuk. Brown has seen 38 minutes of playing time in each of his last two games and that shouldn’t change tonight. Tonight he offers some high upside; combined with a low price tag. Look for him to have a floor of 25 fantasy points on DraftKings.


Top PF Picks:

Domantas Sabonis – DK: ($9,200)

Sabonis has racked up at least 45 fantasy points on DraftKings in six of his last ten games. On top of that, he has a great individual match-up tonight against Toronto who is ranked 23rd in the NBA against opposing PF’s. Sabonis played Toronto once this year and was able to record 39.8 fantasy point in 40 minutes of action. TJ Warren is also sidelined with an injury still and Oladipo is on a minutes restriction. There should be more looks for Sabonis tonight given the match-up and the teams status. Look for him to have a floor of 40 fantasy points tonight.

Kristaps Porzingis – DK: ($8,300)

While Doncic has been dealing with an injury; Porzingis has been on fire and is stealing the show. Over his last two games, Porzingis has racked up 56 and 59 fantasy points on DraftKings. Tonight he has a solid match-up against Memphis who is ranked 19th in the NBA against opposing PF’s. With that being the case, look for Porzingis to have a floor of 38 fantasy points on DraftKings.

Jayson Tatum – DK: ($7,900)

Tatum is one of my favorite plays tonight as far as Celtics players go. He’s recorded at least 31 fantasy points on DraftKings in each of his last ten games. Making him one of the most consistent performers over that span for Boston. The main reason I like Tatum tonight is due to Boston’s injuries. They will be without Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart, and Daniel Theis. With that being the case, look for Tatum to have a floor of 35 fantasy points on DraftKings tonight.

Derrick Jones Jr. – DK: ($3,900)

Tonight I will be plucking Derrick Jones Jr. from the bargain bin due to how low his price is on DraftKings. The Heat are going to be without Justice Winslow, Tyler Herro, and Myers Leonard tonight. That should allow for Derrick to see around 30 minutes of action once again tonight. He can hit value on DraftKings tonight with just 20 fantasy points. I’m looking for him to have a floor of 25 fantasy points tonight.


Top C Picks:

Karl Anthony Towns – DK: ($10,600)

KAT is a no brainer tonight as Minnesota gets set to take on Atlanta for the second time this season. In the first bout; KAT racked up a whopping 28 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, and 2 blocks in just 31 minutes of action. (Translates to 60.8 FP on DraftKings). He’s also recorded 50 or more fantasy points on DraftKings in six of his last seven games. On top of that, Atlanta is ranked 25th in the NBA against opposing C’s. Look for him to dominate tonights game and have a floor of 50 fantasy points.

Deandre Ayton – DK: ($8,300)

Ayton is in a prime spot tonight as Phoenix gets set to take on Detroit. Phoenix is dealing with 3 injuries in their front-court at the moment which should bolster Ayton’s production. On top of that, Detroit is not very good at defending against opposing C’s as they are ranked 23rd in the NBA. Ayton is on a nice stretch over his last ten games as he’s recorded at least 30 fantasy points on DraftKings in nine of them. Look for him to him to have a floor of 38 fantasy point tonight.

Bam Adebayo – DK: ($8,200)

Bam is the kind of player who is extremely exciting to watch play. He can shoot, rebound, pass, and defend at an elite level in the NBA. He has recorded at least 34 fantasy point on DraftKings in nine of his last ten games for Miami. Tonight he will take on the Clippers for the second time this season and in the first bout he racked up 40.4 fantasy points in 34 minutes of action. Look for him to have a floor of 35 fantasy points tonight.
