NBA DFS Top Plays for 11/13/23

Giannis Antetokounmpo (PF/C – MIL)

• DraftKings Price: $11,100
• FanDuel Price: $11,400

The Greek Freak, Giannis Antetokounmpo, is on a roll lately. After a slow start to the season, he’s been on fire, posting 69 and 71 DK points in his last two games. This former MVP has the potential to average close to 60 points, and he’s likely to get there sooner rather than later. In his recent matchup against the Bulls, Giannis dominated, scoring a whopping 84 DK points.

Why you should consider him:

• He’s a matchup nightmare for the Bulls, known for their weak interior defense.
• Last season, Giannis averaged 27.7 points, 13.3 rebounds, and 5.7 assists in three games against Chicago.
• While his salary may dent your budget, Giannis has the potential to provide incredible value.

Donovan Mitchell (PG/SG – CLE)

• DraftKings Price: $9,300
• FanDuel Price: $10,000

Despite the Cavaliers’ slight disappointments, Donovan Mitchell has been a shining star. He’s been one of the NBA’s best guards, averaging 29.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 2.3 steals per game. Mitchell consistently delivers, with at least 38 DraftKings points in every game and maintaining a 50-point average.

Why you should consider him:

• Sacramento, the opponent for today’s game, surrendered the third-most fantasy points to opposing guards last season.
• Mitchell has a track record of success against them, with at least 42 DK points in their last six meetings.

Scottie Barnes (SF/PF – TOR)

• DraftKings Price: $9,000
• FanDuel Price: $9,400

Scottie Barnes is making waves this season as one of the breakout players. While he took a step back in his sophomore year, he’s now firmly in All-Star territory. Barnes has consistently scored at least 44 DraftKings points in nearly every game this season, boasting a 49-point average.

Why you should consider him:

• The matchup against Washington is ideal, as they rank 29th in defensive efficiency and last in points allowed.
• Barnes has been putting up impressive stats, including 20.2 points, 9.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.4 steals, and 2.0 blocks.

Other Top Plays

Jayson Tatum (SF/PF – BOS)

• DraftKings Price: $10,000
• FanDuel Price: $10,600

While Jayson Tatum may not have had many explosive games this season, he’s a consistent performer. The perennial All-Star has delivered at least 42 DraftKings points in all nine games, almost hitting a 50-point average. Tatum is a safe bet for cash games and has a history of strong performances against the Knicks.

Darius Garland (PG/SG – CLE)

• DraftKings Price: $7,200
• FanDuel Price: $7,600

Garland had a slow start due to injuries but is now finding his groove. He’s too good to be this cheap and recently generated 42 DK points in a game. Expect more upside games from him as he continues to recover.

Domantas Sabonis (SAC vs. CLE – C/PF)

• DraftKings Price: $10,100
• FanDuel Price: $10,100

Despite facing tough matchups with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen, Sabonis remains one of the most talented centers. With Fox listed as doubtful, Sabonis could take on a leading role for the Kings, making him a valuable DFS option.

Pascal Siakam (TOR vs. WAS – C/PF)

• DraftKings Price: $8,000
• FanDuel Price: $7,700

While Siakam has had a slow start, this matchup against Washington could be the spark he needs. With his ability to contribute across various stat categories, Siakam has the potential for a standout performance.
