NBA DFS Pick No. 1: Domantas Sabonis $8,300 FanDuel $9,000 DraftKings
Domantas Sabonis is averaging 1.25 fantasy points per minute with a 23.8 usage percentage and 20.9 assist rate. Playing 34.6 minutes on average, Sabonis is posting 18.3 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists for an average of 41.5 fantasy points per game. This will be a bounce-back opportunity for the Pacers as they were blown out by 46 in Toronto. Sabonis grades out great in a plus matchup at home against the Charlotte Hornets who are sporting the sixth-worst defensive rating in the NBA.
*Honorable Mention: Kyle Lowry $7,600 FanDuel $8,100 DraftKings
**Honorable Mention: Jrue Holiday $8,300 FanDuel $7,900 DraftKings

NBA DFS Pick No. 2: Giannis Antetokounmpo $11,600 FanDuel $11,600 DraftKings
Giannis Antetokounmpo is averaging 1.92 fantasy points per minute with a 37.8 usage percentage and 33.3 assist percentage on the season. Giannis has been unstoppable, playing 30.9 minutes per game and averaging 30.0 points, 13.6 rebounds and 5.8 assists, good for 57.9 fantasy points per game. Also, he is getting you two combined steals/blocks and shooting 55.2% on 20-plus attempts per game. Heading to Toronto, Milwaukee will have their hands full as Toronto is second in both points allowed and defensive rating. With that said, we should see Giannis on the court more as it should be a competitive atmosphere.
*Honorable Mention: Jaylen Brown $6,200 FanDuel $6,600 DraftKings
**Honorable Mention: C.J. McCollum $8,500 FanDuel $9,000 DraftKings
NBA DFS Pick No. 3: Jayson Tatum $8,800 FanDuel $8,800 DraftKings
In 779 minutes without Kemba Walker, Jayson Tatum is averaging 1.32 fantasy points per minute with a 32.4 usage percentage and 15.6 assist rate this year. Playing big minutes, Tatum is producing 22.9 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.9 assists and two combined steals/blocks, good for 40.3 fantasy points per game. He is shooting 44.5% from the field on 18.4 attempts and 38.6 from 3 on 6.9 attempts. His all-around game has been on full display this season, putting up big numbers in the process, and I don’t see Portland slowing him down, as they are ranked 27th defensively.
*Honorable Mention: Hassan Whiteside $9,600 FanDuel $9,200 DraftKings
**Honorable Mention: Anthony Davis $10,600 FanDuel $10,300 DraftKings
