There are two NBA games on the schedule tonight, so get your DFS fantasy basketball team ready with my DraftKings daily picks.
The NBA Playoffs has a pair of Round 2 matchups on tap for this Monday night as part of a lie TNT double-header. The Spurs, Thunder, Cavs, and Hawks will all take the floor tonight looking for important wins, and you can get in on the action as well if you put together a DFS fantasy basketball team. To help you know who to target from the four teams in action tonight, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides.

The fist game of the night tips off at 7:00 PM ET as the Eastern Conference semi-finals get underway between the Cavaliers and the Hawks. At 9:30, we move to the Western Conference for the second game of the night as the Spurs host the Thunder in the second game of their series. Game 1 was a rout by the Spurs, so it’ll be interesting to see if the series will be a landslide or if the Thunder can bounce back and keep things close tonight.
To see who I think you should consider from those two games for your lineup tonight, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides. My goal each day is to give you the information you need to build your own lineup that can bring home a win for your team. In order to help you find the position and price-point that you need, you’ll find two slides per position in this post–one with high-salary options and one with high-value options. Each slide contains at least two options with extras thrown in where possible. I base each pick on the current form of each player and the positional matchups each player will face in today’s game.
I rank my picks every morning using stars after each selection to show the strength of the pick. For a full explanation of the rating system, check out the last slide of this post, but in short, more stars means more confidence (on a point-per-dollar basis). Also on the final slide of the post, you can see how I’m putting together the best of my picks into my lineup for today’s competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but you’re welcome to check out my lineups and use them as a place to get started.
In my DraftKings daily picks, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to DraftKings pricing and scoring. If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for FanDuel, check the box above for related posts or find the latest on the fantasy basketball hub.
