NBA Top Plays for Monday MLK Day 01/16/23

Giannis Antetokounmpo is currently projected to score 61.45 DraftKings points in his game against the Indiana Pacers, with a projected 34 minutes of playing time. This gives him a value of 5.04, which is pretty solid. His floor is 50.54 points and his ceiling is 72.36 points, with a solid 1.83 points per minute. These numbers make him a pretty safe pick for your lineup, but of course, there’s always some risk with any player.

Now let’s talk about the matchup. The Pacers currently have a DVP of 11, which means they are one of the strongest defensive teams in the league against power forwards. However, Giannis is not your average player, he’s a superstar and can go off against any team. He’s always worth considering for your lineups regardless of matchup.

In his last 3 games, he’s averaging 67.4 DraftKings points per game, so he’s been consistent. In terms of ownership, Giannis is currently at 21.7%, which means that he’ll be highly owned, so if you’re looking to differentiate your lineup, you may need to look elsewhere.

LeBron James is currently projected to score 54.89 DraftKings points in his game against the Houston Rockets, and he’s projected for 38 minutes of playing time. This gives him a value of 4.81, which is solid. His floor is 44.05 points and his ceiling is 65.72 points, with a solid 1.45 points per minute. These numbers make him a pretty safe pick for your lineup all things considered.

In terms of matchup, the Rockets currently have a defensive rating of 26, which is near the bottom of the league. They tend to give up tons of points to their opponents, and LeBron should have a good opportunity to rack up fantasy points in this matchup today. 

In his last 3 games, he’s averaging 55.4 DraftKings points per game, so he’s been consistent. In terms of ownership, LeBron is currently at 18.8%, which means that he’s not too highly owned. If you’re looking to differentiate your lineup, drafting LeBron could be a good way to do that.

Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics is a player to keep an eye on. He’s projected to score 53.31 DraftKings points in his game against the Charlotte Hornets, with a projected 37 minutes of playing time. This gives him a value of 4.89, making him a solid choice for your lineup. His floor is 42.00 points and his ceiling is 64.61 points, with a solid 1.45 points per minute.

Regarding the matchup, the Hornets currently have a defensive rating of 26, which is near the bottom of the league. Tatum should have a good opportunity to score plenty of fantasy points in this matchup. Tatum is averaging 30.1 points and 7.3 rebounds per game this season, so he’s a solid option for your lineup.

We currently have Tatum at 18.9% owned which is borderline high owned. If you’re looking to differentiate your lineup, drafting Tatum could be a good way to do that but you will still need some lower owned players mixed in. 

Jayson Tatum is a great option for your DraftKings NBA DFS lineup. He’s got solid numbers, a good matchup, and a consistent player who can help you build a solid lineup. Keep in mind that there’s always some risk with any player, but with Tatum’s performance and solid numbers, he’s worth considering.

Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors is a player to strongly consider for your lineup today. He’s projected to score 50.89 DraftKings points in his game against the Washington Wizards, with a projected 38 minutes of playing time. This gives him a value of 4.89, which is solid. His floor is 39.61 points and his ceiling is 62.17 points, with a solid 1.36 points per minute.

In terms of matchup, the Wizards currently have a defensive rating of 12, which is around the top 3rd of the league but that doesn’t really scare me too much. Curry should have a good opportunity to score. He’s been averaging 32.0 points and 5.5 assists per game this season, so he’s a solid option for your lineup.

In terms of ownership, Curry is currently at 4.8%, which means that he’s not highly owned at all. If you’re looking to differentiate your lineup, drafting Curry could be a great way to do that.

Stephen Curry is an excellent addition to your DraftKings NBA DFS lineup. With a solid projection, value and matchup, he’s a consistent player that can help you build a winning lineup.
