Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10800 DK - $10000Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 52.91 DK - 54.03 It’s going to be an interesting slate here with teams definitely making their intentions known around tanking and other groups getting back to full strength. As of this writing, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is questionable so we will need to see where he lands, but if he plays he’s a top option here. For starters, the Hornets stink so he draws one of the best matchups on the slate. The Thunder still have a chance at the playoffs here and they seem like they are going for it with SGA playing solid minutes in the short term. He’s had an unbelievable season, has ascended into superstar territory and still isn’t priced for his production in this matchup. Keep an eye on his injury status here for sure. **Update - SGA is out tonight** s Dennis Smith Jr. FD - $6500 DK - $7000Opponent - OKCProj Pts FD - 33.1 DK - 33.91 Again, a theme of this slate is that we are likely going to be playing some guys on tanking teams. That’s the nature of these late season slates wherein some good and great players have been shut down for the season or are at least being injury managed. One of them is the Hornets who are already without LaMelo Ball and now Terry Rozier and Gordon Hayward are out as well. Dennis Smith Jr. has been starting at point guard and that should remain the case in this game. He went for 14 points, six assists, and five rebounds last game against the Mavs in just 28 minutes. He did have foul trouble and I think the real minutes are more around 30+ and though he’s getting expensive, if Kelly Oubre is out as well then the usage should be there. Delon Wright FD - $5800 DK - $5400Opponent - BOSProj Pts FD - 32.79 DK - 33.28M We are going to need to keep an eye on the Wiz situation leading into this slate. Last game, Monte Morris sat out and Delon Wright got the start at point guard....

Guards Kyrie Irving FD - $9400 DK - $9800 Opponent - IND Proj Pts FD - 48.67 DK - 52.02 While things maybe haven't gone exactly as planned since joining the Mavericks(who seen that coming?), there is still a lot to like here as Kyrie checks a lot of boxes. First of all, Luka is facing a one-game suspension for his 16th technical foul which should hand a large portion of the ball handling and usage to Kyrie who has seen 23 and 24 shots in the last two games he has played without Luka. The Mavericks are also in desperate need of a win now sitting a game back of the play-in and luckily get a nice matchup against the Pacers' 26th-ranked defence. At a price that is back under $10K on both sites, Kyrie is in play in all formats Monday. Tyrese Maxey FD - $7700 DK - $7700 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 37.14 DK - 40.18 We have a matchup between top three teams in each conference with the 76ers currently sitting as five-point dogs which does tell us a little bit about the status of James Harden who has missed each of the last three games. No matter the status, I am on board with Maxey who has been playing terrific in the short-term(with & without Harden) averaging 26.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 5.0 assists for just over 43 fantasy points per game. We are projecting a close, high-scoring game and while the Nuggets rank 14th overall in defensive efficiency they have struggled against guards giving up the fourth most fantasy points to the position. Maxey is in play in all formats and would get a nice boost in PTS/$ if Harden sits again. Stay tuned. Shaedon Sharpe FD - $7200 DK - $6200 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 30.61 DK - 33.04 Portland's 2023 first-round pick is finally getting thrust into a bigger role and has looked terrific in the process. He has played monster minutes(35+ in each), led the team in shots, and dropped 24 or more real points and 34 or more fantasy points in all three games. The opportunity should remain as Lillard could be shut down for the season and Simons is once again questionable. The price is getting out of reach on FanDuel, especially in a...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 3/26/23 It's hard to believe, but we only have two weeks remaining in the regular season. However, this is one of the most challenging times to play DFS because the injury reports are laughably long. It would be one thing if we're dealing with just injuries, but throwing in resting players has DFS looking like a tsunami of chaos. The good news is that we have some information headed into this Sunday slate and will bank on some of that. With that in mind, let's start with one of the most improved players in the NBA.

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Darius Garland FD - $8100 DK - $7500 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 38.12 DK - 39.59 Garland has taken his game to another level this season. The young guard is averaging 40 DraftKings points per game, which is a genuinely absurd average for a $7,500 player. It's not like his recent form has killed his salary, with DG posting a 38-point average across his last 14 outings. We expect that to be his floor in this matchup, with the Rockets ranked 28th in defensive efficiency and 29th in points allowed. They're also surrendering the most fantasy points to opposing point guards this season, with Garland dropping 53 DK points in their one matchup. There might not be a better play below $8,000. Dennis Smith Jr. FD - $6500 DK - $6000 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 32.52 DK - 31.95 This Charlotte roster is starting to throw in the towel. They've lost LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier, and Kelly Oubre to injuries recently, and that should force Smith into the starting lineup. More importantly, he's a stat-stuffing point guard who will be the primary ball-handler for the remainder of the season. This expanded role has led to DSJ scoring at least 28 DraftKings points in 11 of his 14 starts this year while averaging over 32 fantasy points per game in those outings. He's doing that damage despite some poor shooting, but a revenge game against a freefalling Dallas defense should have him on target. The Mavs rank 24th in defensive efficiency and are 29th since acquiring Kyrie Irving. Marcus Smart (FD $6000 DK...

Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Guards Kevin Huerter FD - $6200 DK - $5400 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 26.78 DK - 29.22 Huerter returned from a three-game absence last night and showed no signs of rust, especially from beyond the arc where he dropped 6 of 12 and ended up with 29 points while also adding nine rebounds and five assists for a season-high 54 fantasy points. While I am not expecting another ceiling game tonight, the upside and opportunity are there as Fox left the game in the third quarter last night and is questionable to doubtful on Saturday. If that's the case, Huerter quickly becomes one of our top PTS/$ value plays, especially on DraftKings in the mid $5K range. Tyrese Maxey FD - $7400 DK - $7300 Opponent - PHO Proj Pts FD - 37.39 DK - 40.64 De'Anthony Melton FD - $6500 DK - $5800 Opponent - PHO Proj Pts FD - 30.07 DK - 31.61 The 76ers are also on a back-to-back tonight and like the Kings, could also be without their point guard, James Harden, who has missed two straight games. In his absence, there has been some PTS/$ value to go around starting with Tyrese Maxey who has seen 16 or more shots in four straight games, going back to when Harden was healthy, and has delivered shooting 50% from the field and averaging over 40 fantasy points a game. For Melton, he went through a bit of a rough patch after the break but has heated back up recently dropping 40 or more fantasy points in three of his last four games thanks to a very balanced attack across multiple fantasy categories. We will have to watch the news closely but if Harden is out, both 76ers' guards are in play once again tonight. Small Forward Kawhi Leonard FD - $10300 DK - $10100 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 50.36 DK - 52.72 I mentioned on Thursday that Kawhi would receive a big boost with no Paul George and he delivered a near-flawless game dropping 13 fo 15 from the field for 32 points while adding six rebounds, six assists, and four steals for nearly a 60 fantasy point effort. Even with PG13 in the lineup, Kawhi has been very consistent since the break shooting 57% on 18 shots a game while averaging...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10300 DK - $11000Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 54.89 DK - 60.62 Shaedon Sharpe FD - $6000 DK - $5400Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 23.63 DK - 25.87 Technically, the Blazers aren’t out of the playoffs yet, though it’s looking very, very unlikely at this point. Damian Lillard has even admitted as much. But they still put the best foot forward last game and actually beat the Jazz. Without Anfernee Simons in the lineup, Dame still stands to see massive usage in this offense and though he is priced in the upper tier, represents a cash game play because of the overall makeup. He’s dropped 30 or more in three of the last four games and has been able to dial up the assists as well. The Bulls have been a good defense on the season, but that doesn’t have me walking away from this play. And then there is Shaedon Sharpe who got the start at shooting guard last game and turned in the best performance of his rookie season. He played 40 minutes, took 19 shots and finished with 24 points and nine rebounds. This was something of a breakout for the dude who should stick with this kind of run and opportunity to close out the season. The price has climbed some but I think he’s still very much a value, especially on DraftKings. Monte Morris FD - $5300 DK - $4900Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 32.85 DK - 35.43 The Wizards are going to be without Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma once again which is already set to open up significant opportunity for the rest of the lineup. Then couple that with them getting the best DFS matchup around and we have a smash spot for this Washington team. Monte Morris will start at point guard and is thankfully coming cheap because the minutes can be a bit all over the place. The Wiz have long-run somewhat unconventional rotations with some of their starters and Morris falls into that group. That being said, he’s in a good enough spot that playing him in cash doesn’t represent...

Guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10600 DK - $9600 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 50.92 DK - 52.18 We get a small four-game slate on Thursday and surprisingly there are no players over $10K on DraftKings which does lead to a more balanced lineup build. I am still scratching my head as to why SGA remains in the $9K range as he has been fantastic since the break and while dealing injuries, as well. Over his last eight games, he is averaging 35 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 4.3 assists for over 51 fantasy points a game. It's a tougher matchup on paper as the Clippers are 12th in defensive efficiency but they are missing Paul George and the current total(233) is the highest on the slate so I am not worried at all. I will have exposure to SGA in all formats. Jalen Brunson FD - $9000 DK - $7800 Opponent - ORL Proj Pts FD - 38.43 DK - 41.33 Speaking of coming in at a discount, at least on DraftKings, Jalen Brunson continues to run a sub $8K price tag for the third straight game. It's definitely not due to efficiency as he is shooting 56% from the field on 34 shots over the last two games while playing 37 minutes in both. In the past, we might have called him a highly volatile, shooting-dependant guard but he has seen his assist rate(6.2 per game) sky-rocket in 2023 aiding his "safety" and floor and with his current price on DraftKings, is in play in all formats. Cole Anthony FD - $6200 DK - $5600 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 27.65 DK - 30.09 While it has been Gary Harris and Markelle Fultz in the starting lineup over the last three games since Jalen Suggs went down with a concussion, it has been Cole Anthony providing the biggest value from a fantasy perspective. Nothing has really changed in terms of minutes but he has seen an uptick in usage taking 14 or more shots in those three games while tallying 33 fantasy points in each. Even with Suggs in the lineup, his form trending as he had provided 27 or more fantasy points in the three games prior. On this smaller slate where value is hard to come by, I will have a ton of exposure...
