TOP NBA DFS GAMES TODAY

Which games are shaping up to be DFS and sports betting goldmines? Let’s look at the main slate.

  • Nuggets vs Pelicans: Denver continues to operate without Nikola Jokic, which means a ton of touches for Jamal Murray and enhanced minutes for role players. Both teams rank outside the top 25 in defensive efficiency. Highest game total on the main slate.
  • Bucks vs Timberwolves: Anthony Edwards is out, which gives more minutes to wings and usage bumps to scorers, such as Julius Randle

Free NBA DFS Picks Cheat Sheet For Today

Our NBA betting cheat sheet today is ready to roll!

Let’s break it down.

BEST POINTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Julius Randle > 22.5 Points

Anthony Edwards is out, and someone has to pick up the slack. Justin Carlucci wrote about Randle at our best NBA props page. Check out his full analysis and more free picks!

BEST REBOUNDS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Aaron Gordon > 6.5 Rebounds

There will be plenty of rebound chances for Gordon, as Denver is without Jokic and Valanciunas. New Orleans ranks just 17th in team rebounding.

BEST ASSISTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Alperen Sengun > 5.5 Assists

Sengun played monster minutes in his first game back, which is a major key. Houston battles a Chicago team that offers one of the biggest pace-up matchups in the NBA.

UNDERDOG FANTASY POINTS PICK

Pick: Jalen Johnson > 48.5 Fantasy Points – Johnson’s elite play is finally getting the attention it deserves. His versatility and huge role make him a high-upside DFS pick in a strong matchup against the Lakers.

Good luck!
