One spot remains up for grabs in the NBA Playoffs for the Eastern Conference, with one game deciding who punches their ticket to the postseason. This Pacers vs. Wizards matchup is the lone game on the NBA fantasy slate today, which could deter you from some DFS sites. However, since Monkey Knife Fight offers prop contests for every game, nothing changes for daily fantasy basketball players over on their site, and there are plenty of picks to be made.

It is important to note that much like odds update throughout the day, contests at MKF also switch and change. So if you like these NBA picks below, it’s wise to jump on them quickly.
Triple Doubling — Goal: Over 0.5 | Prize: 1.5x
For this contest, we are picking three players in this game, with the goal being to select a player to finish with a triple-double. All we need is one player to achieve a triple-double and we will earn 1.5x our entry fee.
The obvious pick is Russell Westbrook since he is a walking triple-double. Domantas Sabonis also has a good chance due to his passing abilities, and he was just on assist shy of a triple-double in his first play-in game. Finally, we’ll pick Bradley Beal. While I don’t think he has much of a chance to get a triple-double, stranger things have happened. Westbrook could get hot shooting, which could allow Beal to defer to him and tally more assists.
If any of these three players get a triple-double, you will win 1.5 times what you entered. If you’re feeling frisky, you could raise the goal to 1.5, which would give you five times your entry fee if two of these players get a triple-double.

Rapidfire — Draft Winner of two Matchup Categories | Prize: 3x
In this Monkey Knife Fight game type, you are picking which of two players will score higher in a stat category. One player gets a handicap, much like the spread in a typical NBA game bet. If you pick all three matchups correctly, you win three times your entry fee.
Points: Bradley Beal vs. Domantas Sabonis (+6.5)
Assists: Russell Westbrook vs. Malcolm Brogdon (+7.5)
Beal was clearly limited by his hamstring two days ago, as he was seen grabbing at it on the floor and stretching it off the court. This should play a factor again today, and he will not be as effective. On the flip side, Washington will not have an answer for Sabonis. He scored at least 30 points in all three games against the Wizards this season.
With Beal being limited, this also affects Westbrook’s assist numbers. Brogdon being spotted 7.5 assists is also a ridiculous number. With nobody stopping Sabonis from scoring, Brogdon will rack up assists that way. He also totaled eight in just 21 minutes last game. These four players all affect each other, which is why creating this game narrative is helpful in our NBA picks.
