NBA DFS Picks For DraftKings 2/20/21

We are on a roll! 5 straight days of cashing. My main lineup highlighted by Joel Embiid, Zion Williamson and Cedi Osman finished in the top 1% of a big GPP. Zion had a floor game but Cedi surpassed 5x value and Embiid broke the slate with 91.75 Draftkings points. Tonight, we have a nice 5 game slate with amazing matchups in all of them. This slate is filled with a lot of scoring and not a lot of defense, which is perfect for DFS. I will be giving you my top players and each position. Let’s make it 6 days in a row!

Reminder: If you have any lineup questions prior to lock, I will be happy to answer any of them if you comment and tag in under the article or DM me @rogersaj07. Also, if you retweet the article and DM me I will send you my player core that I will be locking into all of my lineups.

Top Play:

De’Aaron Fox: $8,000

Fox is in an excellent spot for a bounce-back performance at potentially low rostership. Everyone is gonna drift towards Lamelo Ball in a great matchup against GSW and Ja Morant due to the Grizzlies’ injuries. Yes, I do like Ball and Morant quite a bit and they will be in some of my lineups, but Fox is a stud and price way too cheap for the top dog on a subpar Kings team. Fox has exceeded 5x on his current price tag over his last 10 and has crushed value with at least 54 DK points three times over that span. Overall, Fox is one of the few reliable Kings to target in their great matchup with Chicago.

Best Value(s):

Xavier Tillman: $3,400

Kyle Anderson and Brandon Clarke have been ruled out for tonight’s game. This would most likely result in Tillman starting at PF. The rookie has held a consistent role all season, playing about low 20’s minutes. Due to all the grizzlies injuries, I can see Tillman playing high 20’s and maybe even into the low 30’s tonight. At almost minimum salary, Tillman is a must-play in all lineups for much needed salary relief.

Core/Lineup:

My core 3 are De’Aaron Fox: $8,000, Zach Lavine: $9,200 and Tyler Herro: $6,300 There are a lot of good value plays at SF/PF. Most likely, have to pay up for the Center. The three options I listed all have great matchups. Jo-Val and Kanter have high floors and Ayton has a high ceiling.
