DraftKings NBA picks February 20: It’s Harden to go back to work

The All-Star Break is over! Time for the second half grind of the DraftKings NBA season. It gets going on Thursday with six games coming out of the break. Most of these injuries haven’t been fully updated yet, but I will change them as I see changes made. This was a time for some to heal and others to be reevaluated.

Out: Kyrie Irving (shoulder), Ben Simmons (back), Steph Curry (hand), Clint Capela (heel), Klay Thompson (knee), Richaun Holmes (shoulder), Marvin Bagley (foot), Reggie Jackson (buyout), Luke Kennard (knee), Wendell Carter (ankle), Lauri Markkanen (pelvis), Chandler Hutchison (shoulder), Otto Porter (foot), Tyler Herro (foot), Eric Gordon (leg), Alex Len (hip), Kris Dunn (knee), Justise Winslow (back), Meyers Leonard (ankle), Denzel Valentine (hamstring)Grayson Allen (hip), Kevin Durant (Achilles), Blake Griffin (knee), Khyri Thomas (foot), Kyle Korver (back), Skal Labissiere (knee).

Questionable: Deandre Hunter (ankle).

Carter is out, but Jabari Parker will make his Kings debut in his first game since January 3. The Kings need the body, but I don’t know how involved he’ll be. Looney is back, but I also question how much the Warriors will actually use him.

It’s been a week, but I still remember it well. I stacked the wrong game. Four of my six lineups were in the money with one in the top 800 before overtime. I ended up breaking even. Someone didn’t luck into 400, but they got close.

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.
