Welcome to the Monday edition of NBA DFS Picks and Pivots, a fantasy basketball column focused on helping you find the best core lineup for this slate of DFS action!

For those of you finding us for the first time, the concept behind NBA DFS Picks and Pivots is to give you a first look at the day’s NBA DFS slate, including our top picks, plays and pivots, using FantasyDraft pricing as a reference to help you build your best fantasy baseball line-up and win big.

Picks and Pivots is not a simple “best plays” column but rather it focuses on slate strategy and roster construction to help give you insight into how I will look to play this slate. The goal of this article is to dig through the slate, highlight our top plays and help you identify the best slate strategy across your NBA DFS line-ups.

Sunday’s NBA DFS contests continued to follow a similar trend as it took over 350 fantasy points to take down the $25 GPP on FantasyDraft with the minimum cash line at 312 with double-up contests right at 300 once again.

The stars once again were the key as Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving led the slate with 60+ fantasy point games while we saw Karl-Anthony Towns come in at over 90% owned in cash games after back-to-back 70+ games despite only reaching the 50 FP mark on Sunday.

Without further ado, let’s get into today’s slate!
