NBA DFS Pick No. 1: T.J. Warren $5,600 FanDuel $6,000 DraftKings

T.J. Warren is averaging 1.00 fantasy points per minute with a 22.6 usage percentage. Playing north of 32 minutes per game, Warren is posting 18.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and one steal. He is shooting at a 52.8% rate on 14.1 attempts for an average of 28.9 fantasy points per game. Obviously, he’s had two down games in a row, but for his price point and upside, he’s worth the look.

*Honorable Mention: Damion Lee $5,800 FanDuel $5,400 DraftKings

**Honorable Mention: Rajon Rondo $4,000 FanDuel $3,500 DraftKings

NBA DFS Pick No. 2: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander $7,200 FanDuel $7,400 DraftKings

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is performing at a very high level. The second-year guard out is averaging 19.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and two combined steals/blocks for an average of 35.5 fantasy points per game. Also, he is producing 1.02 fantasy points per minute with a 23.7 usage percentage and 14.3 assist rate for the season. He gets a Kings team that’s middle of the road defensively and doesn’t have anybody to protect the rim.

*Honorable Mention: Harry Giles $4,500 FanDuel $5,500 DraftKings

**Honorable Mention: Trevor Ariza $4,800 FanDuel $4,800 DraftKings

NBA DFS Pick No. 3: C.J. McCollum $8,800 FanDuel $9,000 DraftKings

C.J. McCollum continues to bear the weight for the Trail Blazers and is red hot in the process. Over his last four games, McCollum is averaging 1.45 fantasy points per minute with a 34.5 usage percentage and 46.5 assist rate, averaging 25 shot attempts per game in that span. With this type of production and elevated price tag, McCollum is hard to fade, regardless of who he’s facing.

*Honorable Mention: Steven Adams $6,900 FanDuel $6,800 DraftKings

**Honorable Mention: Anthony Davis $10,800 FanDuel $10,300 DraftKings
