NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Friday, May 3
Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?
Notorious: Paolo Banchero
squirrelpatrol: Luka Doncic
eys819: Luka Doncic
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: Here are the players on this slate with the biggest increases in usage in the playoffs compared to their season averages:
- Ivica Zubac +5%
- Paolo Banchero +4%
- Dereck Lively +3%
- Jalen Suggs +2%
- Donovan Mitchell +2%
- James Harden +2%
squirrelpatrol: Jonathan Isaac closed the game for Orlando with Gary Harris injured, sharing the floor with Wendell Carter, who replaced Isaac in the starting lineup earlier this series. If Harris is out or limited, Isaac could see more time and be a key value piece again.
eys819: James Harden shot just 2-for-12 from the field in Game 5 after an excellent 12-for-17 performance in Game 4. Paul George posted eerily similar performances, shooting 4-for-13 in Game 4 and 11-for-19 in Game 5. The Clippers’ chances of keeping their season alive depend heavily on the inconsistent shooting of their two healthy stars.
