DraftKings NBA picks December 20: Two centers isn’t enough
It’s a big ten game night for our DraftKings NBA tournaments. We have major injuries opening up value, but not a ton of stars since most of them were out last night. That’s going to make this an interesting slate. First, let’s check those injuries we talked about.
Out: Luka Doncic (ankle), Pascal Siakam (groin), Steph Curry (hand), Klay Thompson (knee), Jusuf Nurkic (leg), Deandre Ayton (ankle), Victor Oladipo (knee), Zion Williamson (knee), Norman Powell (shoulder), Blake Griffin (knee), Rui Hachimura (groin), Justise Winslow (back), Thomas Bryant (foot), Luke Kennard (knee), Marc Gasol (hamstring), Mo Wagner (ankle), Christian Wood (knee), Marcus Smart (eye), Jordan McRae (finger), Zach Collins (shoulder), Dion Waiters (suspension), Reggie Jackson (back), Hamidou Diallo (elbow), Reggie Bullock (back), Matt Thomas (finger), C.J. Miles (wrist), John Wall (Achilles), Wayne Ellington (Achilles), Rodney Hood (Achilles), Al-Farouq Aminu (knee), Robert Williams (bone), Vincent Poirier (finger), Khyri Thomas (foot), Andre Roberson (knee), Darius Miller (Achilles), Dylan Windler (leg), Andre Iguodala (personal).
Questionable: Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), Devin Booker (forearm), Fred VanVleet (knee), Gordon Hayward (foot), Goran Dragic (groin), Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle), T.J. Warren (illness), Seth Curry (back), Jeremy Lamb (groin), Cameron Johnson (hip), Jake Layman (toe), Delon Wright (finger), Jarrett Culver (illness), Grayson Allen (ankle), Stanley Johnson (groin), Allonzo Trier (concussion).
There’s a lot to watch everywhere on this injury report. It’s that long even with the probables left off!
I had Harden, but no Westbrook. LouWill getting tossed made sure I didn’t cash.
mile13.1 took it down with a modest 347.5 DraftKings points. THey got the huge value out of Patty Mills, Tucker, White, O’Neals and built around Dinwiddie, PG, Allen, and the Brow. No Giannis. No Harden. No Westbrook. Not even LeBron. Let that be a lesson to us.
Just because you don’t see someone on here doesn’t mean they are a bad play. I just think the ones listed herein are better.
