From being out of the playoffs to now standing a level chance of progressing from the semi-finals, Denver Nuggets have rewritten their destiny across the last week in NBA 2019-20. Facing a daunting task as they chased a 3-1 deficit against Utah Jazz is the playoffs, Denver pulled off a gargantuan show of robust basketball with gallantry, pluck and resolve paired with basketball acumen taking the side to a 4-3 win.
While things are not going to be easy against this LA Clippers side which ended up in second spot in the Western Conference, that grit and guile placed Denver in a solid spot ahead of today’s series opener. And the side will need every bit of vigour it can extract as it gets ready to embark on a gruelling and tedious slate.
DraftKings NBA DFS Picks
Point Guard
Kyle Lowry, 7,500
Kyle Lowry needs to pull off a staggering effort if the Raptors are to return in their series against Boston Celtics. Another defeat today could see the Raptors all but on the verge of exiting the league, a narrative set to see the best come out of Lowry.
He’s been consistent as ever with him pulling off 17 points, 8 dimes and 6 boards the last time around to see him nail down a spot in our Dream 11 framework for this one.
Value
Reggie Jackson, 3,800
He struggled in the opening exchanges of the playoffs against Dallas Mavericks but Reggie Jackson was quick to catch up speed as the series traversed. His ability to convert from the midrange region saw him get elevated minutes on the court to see him hold a spot down in our side for today.
Shooting Guard
Value
Torrey Craig, 3,600
With 7 points and 7 rebounds in game 7 against Utah Jazz, Torrey Craig did more than enough to earn our faith. In a low scoring affair, his ability to occult shots and protect his side’s rim makes him a must have pick at a frugal 3,600 credits.
Small Forward
Stud
Kawhi Leonard, 10,300
Making a foray into today’s series with a 33-14 game wining performance against Dallas Mavericks, Kawhi makes for an instant pick. He’s up against a Denver Nuggets side comprising of tiring legs, a team which Kawhi will find easy to layup his three pointers from the midrange region against.
Power Forward
Value
Daniel Theis, 5,300
Daniel’s ability to come up with boards and guard his side’s paint has turned into a real blessing for Boston. He’s quashed the Raptors’ repeated attempts to pile on the points with him not only pulling off blocks but registering steals as well.
OG Anunoby, 5,100
Struggling for points, the Raptors have seen them come from an unexpected source. Anunoby has been stellar in the semi-finals, upping the ante to emerge as a steady source of points for the side owing to his ability to come up with baskets from the deep.
Centre
Stud
Nikola Jovic, 7,500
In a clash were the scoreline was decided by a margin of 80-78, Jokic’s 30-14 double-double is deserving of every plaudit being rained down on him. He pulled off a sparkling showing on the court, one which alluded to his sprawling skill set to make him a must have pick for us today.
Ivica Zubac, 4,800
At just 4,800, Zubac was someone we were never going to let out of our sights. The LA Clippers centre has been impeccable inside both the paints with his 15-11 double-double in game 6 against Dallas exulting towards his nuances when it comes towards piling on the points in the paint.
