It’s the final day of the NBA regular season, and every team is scheduled to play. However, not every veteran will be suiting up today, which could make many NBA fantasy values a bit crazy. The Awesemo Boom vs. Bust Tool and NBA fantasy projections will help you navigate the range of outcomes for NBA DFS picks today. The following are some of the best picks on DraftKings and FanDuel based on their probabilities of booming or busting.

Boom/Bust NBA Fantasy Projections | May 16
NBA DraftKings + FanDuel Boom CandidatesÂ
Stephen Curry vs. Grizzlies: $10,000/$10,000
42.2% DraftKings Boom/44.2% FanDuel Boom
After a day of rest last time out, Curry is back in the lineup today. He takes on the Grizzlies, with the winner getting the eighth seed and a “win-and-in” opportunity in the play-in tournament, so there is a lot at stake today. Expect the best player on the floor show up to play and will his team to victory. Curry has seen his price drop slightly, which only raises his value. He was three assists shy of a triple-double the last time he faced Memphis, so the top-tier upside is there for Curry today.
Yogi Ferrell vs. Thunder: $3,600/$4,100
89.5% DraftKings Boom/86.3% FanDuel Boom
Not only does Ferrell have the highest probability to be a boom today, the probability he busts is almost nonexistent. Awesemo is projecting Yogi to play the most among the point guards despite everyone expecting to be healthy. The Clippers likely want to win since they could still get the No. 3 seed. However, because they are playing the Thunder, it wouldn’t be surprising to see most of the veterans resting in the second half, giving Ferrell the opportunity to have a big game.

Julius Randle vs. Celtics: $9,400/$9,300
26.2% DraftKings Boom/32.4% FanDuel Boom
With Tom Thibodeau coaching the Knicks, you know they won’t be taking any days off. They are one of the few teams gamers can trust to go all out today, and they have reason to since a win would lock in the No. 4 seed. Randle is the leader of the team, and he should attempt to end the regular season with a bang. Even if he can’t, Randle is averaging 21 points, 10.5 rebounds, five assists and three steals against the Celtics over the past two matchups. He should be able to have a solid day.
NBA DraftKings + FanDuel Bust Candidates
Michael Porter Jr. vs. Blazers: $8,400/$7,500
88.8% DraftKings Bust/65.1% FanDuel Bust
The Nuggets would love to get a win and lock up the No. 3 seed. However, they do not want to sacrifice health, especially after the injuries they have suffered. It wouldn’t be surprising to see the starters a little limited today. Even if Porter plays his full workload, his price has risen to a point where he would need a good game to even hit value. There are too many avenues where he would finish as a bust today.
