DraftKings NBA picks March 2: Cash today with CJ

We have a solid seven game slate for our DraftKings NBA tournaments. Giannis is a lot more than everyone else, but is he worth it? We’ll explore all of that, but only after the injury report.

Out: Damian Lillard (groin), Andre Drummond (calf), Kristaps Porzingis (rest), LaMarcus Aldridge (shoulder), Aaron Gordon (knee), Tristan Thompson (knee), Clint Capela (heel), Jonathan Isaac (knee), Jaren Jackson (knee), Brandon Clarke (quad), Lauri Markkanen (pelvis), Jalen Brunson (shoulder), Darius Garland (groin), Jeremy Lamb (knee)), Dennis Smith (concussion), Chandler Hutchison (shoulder), Jakob Poeltl (knee), Justise Winslow (back), Kris Dunn (knee), Dewayne Dedmon (elbow), Tyler Herro (foot), Luke Kornet (ankle), Dante Exum (ankle), Meyers Leonard (ankle), Kyle Korver (back), Al-Farouq Aminu (ankle), Rodney Hood (Achilles), Jusuf Nurkic (leg), Zach Collins (shoulder), Dwight Powell (Achilles), Alfonzo McKinnie (heel), Dylan Windler (leg), Deandre Bembry (abdomen), Skal Labissiere (knee), Grayson Allen (hip).

Questionable: Zach LaVine

Otto Porter will play, but is on a minutes limit. Luka appears to be fine and Porzingis is out, so Kleber and even WCS just got a lot more interesting.

I had one of my better days of 2020 yesterday, doubling up in the afternoon and placing four of my five main slate lineups. I was heavily exposed to the King and Beal, often in the same lineups. My best lineup was only 37 points out of first.

bdschultheis took it down with 358.25 DraftKings points. He had OG and Jokic with LeBron and Wiggins and got huge value out of Tony SNell, Grant, and Len. He even survived Nicolo Melli‘s subpar night.

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.
