DraftKings NBA picks March 1: Back to the A.D. well
By Mike Marteny
DraftKings NBA Shooting Guards:
Best Bets:
Brad Beal ($10,400): Beal dropped 58.5 DraftKings points on the Warriors the first time around and has cleared 70 twice since the break. No other player, not even Giannis or Harden, can claim that. Beal is the one-man gang. Don’t be turned off by the price. He has been worth every penny of late.
Honorable Mention:
Damion Lee ($5,600): Lee has been very good lately, going for at least 27 DraftKings points in four straight and six of the last seven. He’s probably more reliable that Wiggins at this point, but his upside can’t compare. This is a great matchup for Lee and I actually think he could be overlooked here. He will be a staple in my lineups.
Bogdan Bogdanovic ($5,300): The Kings have effectively ruined Hield’s value by running him off the bench. Bogdan is more consistent in no small part because the minutes are. I could see running both here for price against Detroit, but Bogdan is a hell of a lot safer and probably has more upside at this point too. Oh…..and he’s $500 cheaper.
Dark Horses:
Brandon Knight ($4,100): I wouldn’t be shocked if Knight were the highest owned player on the entire slate. He has 82.5 DraftKings points over the last three games and is dirt cheap. Knight is playing well as a compliment to Rose. There’s a ton of potential here, even if he only plays 25 minutes again.
Mychal Mulder ($3,300): This dude was in Sioux Falls last week. Now he’s practicing with Curry and learning from a championship coach. It paid off last night. Mulder saw his first significant NBA run and put up a solid 23 DraftKings points. Mulder may only get ten days, but I’ll say he makes the most of it. Expect another solid line here.
