DraftKings NBA picks February 5: KAT on fully loaded slate

We have a big nine game Wednesday for our DraftKings NBA tournaments. It isn’t nearly as loaded as last night with only three players in five figures. One of them is out of action completely, so that should concentrate ownership at the top and spread it out in the middle. Let’s see who else besides Luka isn’t participating in tonight’s festivities.

Out: Luka Doncic (ankle), Kyrie Irving (knee), Kemba Walker (knee), Steph Curry (hand), Klay Thompson (knee), Shabazz Napier (traded), Derrick Rose (hip), Marcus Smart (thigh), Jerami Grant (back), Jonathan Isaac (knee), T.J. Warren (concussion), Luke Kennard (knee), Tristan Thompson (quad/trade bait), Daniel Theis (ankle), Tyler Herro (foot), Norman Powell (finger), Marc Gasol (hamstring), Paul Millsap (knee), D.J. Augustin (knee), Cam Reddish (concussion), Justise Winslow (back), Alex Len (hip), Jabari Parker (shoulder), Meyers Leonard (ankle), Mason Plumlee (foot), Keita Bates-Diop (traded),Noah Vonleh (traded), Juancho Hernangomez (traded), Jared Vanderbilt (traded), Malik Beasley (traded), Svi Mykhailiuk (hip), Dario Saric (ankle), Dewan Hernandez (ankle), Jake Layman (toe), Deandre Bembry (hand), Marko Guduric (illness), Allen Crabbe (knee), Chandler Parsons (shoulder), Kevin Durant (Achilles), Bol Bol (foot), Al-Farouq Aminu (knee), Robert Williams (hip), Ante Zizic (illness), Andre Roberson (knee), Dylan Windler (leg), Blake Griffin (knee), Aron Baynes (hip), Frank Kaminksy (knee), Cam Johnson (quad), Tyler Johnson (knee), Ty Jerome (calf), Khyri Thomas (foot), Dwight Powell (Achilles), Bruno Caboclo (knee), Grayson Allen (hip), Andre Iguodala (personal).

Questionable: Jonas Valanciunas (knee), Michael Porter (ankle), Seth Curry (knee), De’Andre Hunter (ankle), J.J. Barea (ankle), Evan Turner (traded), Markieff Morris (hip), Bruno Fernando (calf), T.J. Leaf (illness), Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (ankle).

I would say that everyone involved in the big trade last night likely wont play. The only possible exception is the Timberwolves players going to the Hawks, who are coming to Minneapolis to play.

Thanks to a Hardin/Giannis lineup, I was able to survive Patty Mills to cash in one lineup. Another one built on a Pelicans-Bucks game stack with Houston value also cashed. Overall, not a bad night.

chinese-bochoche got the takedown with 374.25 DraftKings points. He built with Harden and Jokic and got big time value out of Josh Hart, Kuzma, Tucker, Rondo, House, and Miles Bridges.

Just because you don’t see someone on here doesn’t mean they aren’t a good play. I only have so much room, and I’m not going anyone a favor if I recommend more than half of the players at a position. If you have a feeling about someone, by all means, follow that. I mostly follow numbers and trends.
