NBA DFS picks December 30: My name is Luka
By Mike Marteny
NBA DFS Power Forwards:
Giannis averaged 55 DraftKings points against the Heat last year, but that’s kind of a disappointment at his price. Giannis was even more of a disappointment last night. I will run him once just in case he’s mad and comes out trying to prove himself, but I’m not sure he will be.
Jayson Tatum was really good last night and could be even better tonight. He’s young enough that we shouldn’t have to worry about load management. However, that doesn’t mean that Boston wont rest him if this game gets out of hand.
You’re getting a sure 40 out of Kevin Durant, but I still think John Collins has a higher ceiling even though he hasn’t shown it so far this year. This is a very good matchup for Collins though.
PF thins out because I doubt I’ll ever play Kyle Kuzma again. P.J. Washington is a strong play again with Zeller out against a questionable Dallas front.
We still don’t really know where Gallinari fits with the Hawks. Nagging injuries area problem for him yet again. If Gallo plays, I’ll roll him out there once or twice.
Maxi Kleber wont break a slate anytime soon, but he’s consistently decent. I honestly prefer Bobby Portis again just in case it’s another blowout. Mo Harkless is an interesting option if Butler is out again, but his ceiling is very low.
