NBA DFS Picks, Projections, Lineups, Injuries & More Today: Tuesday Playbook

Giddey is questionable but certainly has to be in your multi-enter pool if he's active. A really nice game total and CHI is a rare favorite. Giddey has been filling it up since the departure of LaVine.

Curry is just more of a FD play per price. Same deal for Ja.

Ja is more of a price play on FD.

I like Shead at $4,600 on DK. He should see mid-20s minutes without a few key TOR pieces. He's flashing some defense upside, with multiple steals in three straight games, which can help him possibly smash in a pace-up spot vs. CHI.

Conley is a FD-only play. With DiVincenzo suspended, he should be in line for a few more ticks that could be very beneficial at $4,500 against a bad defense.

Probably out on the $5.3 tag, but I still think he has some juice to squeeze at $4,300. Rotation minutes could be volatile for him and Porter, depending on what Glenn Rivers chooses to do.

Wright should be in the player pool and could see some possible blowout run.

Banton is a volatile GPP play as things currently stand, but if Simons misses, he becomes a great source of value.

Really nice DK price, Betting on some historical talent here. He should still see low-to-mid-20s minutes.

Daniels makes for a great GPP option and a run-back with your POR game stacks to help mitigate some chalk. His ceiling is huge on any given night due to his ridiculous ability to rack up steals, and there is always some sticker shock with him at $8K.

If Simons plays, he's in a great situation without Grant, Henderson, and of course, Ayton. Without those three, Simons averages a 1.9% usage bump and 36.32 DKP per 36 minutes. He's fairly inconsistent, but he has a massive ceiling when shots are falling. POR has a fantastic team total in a great game environment vs. ATL.

POR has a fantastic team total in a great game environment vs. ATL. He's a high-upside play as things currently stand, but if Simons also misses tonight's game, he could arguably be the top per-dollar play on the slate.

Like the team total and matchup. He makes for a good GPP play, but he would get a big boost if Giddey is out.

Kevin Porter has a legit 50-point ceiling. His new price range gives him a scarier floor though. I wouldn't play him and Rollins together, but both should be in the multi-pool. He averages 1.19 DKP per minute this season without Dame and Portis on the floor. Rotation minutes could be volatile for him and Rollins, depending on what Glenn Rivers chooses to do.

Like the DK price a lot more. Big pace-up spot and a healthy team total for the Raptors, who are missing several key players.

Without Kuminga and Payton, Hield could see some more work. Nice high-pace spot.

I like Butler for FD, just think he should be $9K over there based on their typical tight pricing.

Deni continues to offer one of the best floor/ceiling combos and a 60-point ceiling. Portland has a great TT, and Deni would see an even bigger boost if Simons doesn't play. He averages just over 42 DKP per 36 minutes without Scoot, Grant, and Ayton on the floor this year, and with a fantastic game environment on tap vs. ATL, that may be a conservative number. He is fresh off a game with a big-time 30% usage rate.

McDaniels has been pretty inconsistent, but when he seen decent minutes, he's shown us a slate-breaking ceiling at times. He could have a big opportunity for extra burn. without DD and Naz tonight.

Portland's situation is good, but it could be even better for some of the Blazers if Simons misses. They're all kind of jumbled in the GPP pool due to a great pace-up spot vs. ATL. I wouldn't play more than two or three of the 5-6K guys together, but any of them could legitimately pop off. Welcome to late-season NBA.

Risacher is a textbook large-field GPP play. His minutes are so frustrating, but he can easily crush any slate at his price tags. Buyer beware, there is a very wide range of outcomes here, but that includes being a possible slate winner.

NAW should also be in the FD player pool with a possible expanded role tonight without DD and Naz. 

A large-field GPP option who has seen 23+ minutes in six of his last nine games. His willingness to rebound gives him a bit of a ceiling at a dirt-cheap price.

Giannis is THE spend-up option on DK tonight. Vegas tabs this game as competitive, with just a 5.5 spread.

Paolo is my preferred Magic stud to play, just due to his higher ceiling alone. I'm seeing him sub-20% in some places around the industry, and that's probably a little too low. I like it for GPPs against a SAS team that has struggled to defend the interior during Wemby's absence. Paolo has posted just one game with a usage rate lower than 34% across his last eight contets, which indicates a 60-bomb is in the cards on any given night – and he's had 3 of them in March.

I'm not rushing to play Wagner, but he does have a shot to be optimal. Seems like a high-floor cash play to me.

I am throwing Hart here a a placeholder for three Knicks. I think Hart, OG, and Bridges are certainly in your GPP pool. If KAT misses, all of them will see a warranted boost in ownership, and I will be highly interested in all three of them. Hart becomes a rebounding machine without KAT in the lineup, and regardless, he's my favorite standalone value of the three wings – if KAT plays.

I like Draymond on FD, where he should in theory be around $7K without Kuminga stealing some ticks from him.

I like Sochan for large-field GPPs. He dealt with foul trouble in his last game, and Bassey is inactive tonight.

Without KD, O'Neale is a great source of value. However, he did JUST get a downgrade to Q due to illness. Bol Bol and Grayson Allen COULD become very nice leverage options if you have some flexibility.

FD-only play. It's April. Does the best player in the Association need analysis?

If KAT is able to play, he's one of my favorite GPP plays. He gets an absurd 9% usage bump without Brunson on the floor, and there would be zero resistance from Philly. I don't thin the public will click his name, even if he is active.

At $6.6, Poeltl is one of my favorite large-field dart throws. He won't ever play 36 minutes anymore because..you know…the whole tanking thing, but he's been rushing in 28-30 minutes.

OO has been awesome, especially since Capela has been out. Since March 11 (without Capela), OO has averaged 1.21 DKP per minute. He offers a great floor/ceiling combo, even if he really won't ever push 36-40 minutes under normal circumstances.

Yabusele is a big one to watch. If he misses, Bona would be in line for a big workload again. He'd turn into one on of my favorite plays of the day at $4.9.

Mogbo is a tough click, but he's been really productive in March. TOR is really thin at wing and in the front court today.
