DraftKings NBA picks November 26: What is Luka’s ceiling?
By Mike Marteny
DraftKings NBA Power Forwards:
Best Bets:
Paul George ($8,200): George is shooting more than Kawhi and playing more minutes, though not many. They still put up about the same numbers for DraftKings purposes but George is $600 cheaper. If you want to use one of them, use George. I can see fading both though. They play well together in real life, but this marriage is really hurting the fantasy value of both.
Honorable Mention:
Montrezl Harrell ($6,700): Harrell doesn’t need a ton of minutes to do a ton of damage. Dallas is pretty weak on the inside. He isn’t going to abuse them like he did the Pelicans, but Harrell should blow past value here again. A game in the 40’s is well within reach, which would put Harrell somewhere around 7x value.
Paul Millsap ($5,400): Millsap could absolutely dominate Washington. The guards are going to assault them from afar, but Millsap has enough other stats most of the time to hit value without issues. Millsap hasn’t been below 30 DraftKings points since November 5. That’s exactly what I want for this price range.
Dark Horses:
Moritz Wagner ($4,500): Wagner’s production has been mostly good, but his minutes have dipped again. Still, there aren’t a lot of guys in this price range that can provide the numbers that Wagner does. He’s perfect for GPP’s on a small slate because his ceiling is high enough for 8x value at this price. We’re going to need that for a takedown.
Mason Plumlee ($3,800): Plumlee hasn’t played 20 minutes since November 14, but he has still hit 8x value twice in that span. He’s also been in single digits twice. This game has massive blowout potential so we could see more run for guys like Plumlee. He has decent upside here, but the floor is enough to destroy your lineup.
