DraftKings NBA DFS Picks
Point Guard
Stud
Luka Doncic, 11,000
He’s questionable once again but we envision Luka taking to the court for this one as well. Despite not being at his fittest in game 4, he came up with a wordclass 43 points, 13 assists and 17 rebounds, a performance which was a testament to his well endowed nature as a point guard.
He’s clearly not taken kindly to being racially abused by Harrell, with the slander only spurring him on further. Guiding Dallas to consummate success in game 4, we envisage him being at his flawless best today as well to see him retain his place in our side.
Value
Reggie Jackson, 3,700
Getting escalated minutes in game 4, Reggie justified the trust earmarked in him. Reposing the ardent support he had, he pulled off 14 points in his 28 minutes with his innate ability to pull of triples from the deep serving the Clippers fruitfully.
Shooting Guard
Stud
Donavan Mitchell, 9,700
Donovan was responsible for Utah just about scampering their way to a win in game 4 of the two side’s matchup. With a behemoth 50 points as he pulled off triples, points in the paint and boards, he showed why he’s been regarded as one of the finest player’s in the league this term.
Value
Torrey Craig, 3,400
He’s massively lost steam and waned in form but that didn’t deter us from opting for Torrey for this one. His elevated minutes worked in his favour with his role in the side’s shooting rotations and his ball handling abilities seeing us rope him in.
Small Forward
Stud
Kawhi Leonard, 10,000
With George having completely gone off the radar for the Clippers, Kawhi has been turned to in a bid to help his side tread across thin ice. And he’s sparing no expense in ensuring the Clippers don’t’ run their race with him coming up with 32 points and 9 rebounds the two met to take the tie to overtime.
Value
Landry Shamet, 3,600
Shamet’s form has been a silver lining for the Clippers in their time of peril. The small forward has assiduously lined up his floating jump shots with his ability to come up with a high conversion rate inside the paint serving the side well.
Power Forward
Value
Maxi Kleber, 4,200
Kleber is not quite doing the job his side would have wanted but his defensive acumen sees us nail him down for today’s showdown. The power forward is bestowed with a well rounded forte when it comes to pulling up boards and steals to see us make him a viable selection.
Centre
Value
Ivica Zubac, 4,300
Zubac has been dependable as ever in the playoffs. His crossovers and handles have seen him backstep and come up with his offhanded shots under the post to keep the scoring moving steadily for the Clippers.
