NBA DFS Picks For DraftKings 3/2/21

My lineup last night played “ok”. No player stood out, outside of Derozan who surpassed 5x value. Kanter had a dud game, only 29.25 Draftkings pts in an amazing spot. I thought he was going to get close to 7-8x the value. Lillard had a floor game of 52 Draftkings pts. Which I can’t really complain about. However, we still broke even last night. So, our record stays the same (6-4). There’s a lot to discuss, though, so let’s get into it!

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:

Giannis Antetokounmpo:$11,000

Giannis' salary is up $400 in the matter of 10 days, yet he could still be under-valued in light of his recent tear. Giannis has averaged the second most points per game (33.5) in all of the NBA in route to 67.5 DK points. His usage is alsor to 35% during this stretch of monster performances. Coming off a 71.5-point outing against the Los Angeles Clippers, it's tough to expect any less versus a Denver team that ranks in the bottom half of the league defensively. This game is full of fantasy studs, so if you can fit two 10k players you can expect close to 120 Draftkings points between them.

Best Value:

Desmond Bane: $3,400

The Memphis Grizzlies have a few injuries worth monitoring tonight and that could open up some value. Right now, Grayson Allen is out, and Kyle Anderson is listed as questionable for Memphis. This could lead to Desmond Bane seeing plenty of minutes or being in the starting lineup as we saw him in there on Sunday. If he is in the starting lineup, Bane could end up as the strongest value play on the slate. If Kyle Anderson is ruled out, Bane becomes a must-play
