NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Saturday, January 20
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
tcsmith031: The Wizards have the worst team rebound rate in the NBA by a sizable margin, while they’re allowing the 2nd-most points in the paint per game. There’s also a chance they’ll again be without their best rim protector, Daniel Gafford. This spot is about as good as it gets for Victor Wembanyama.
Krayton: Immanuel Quickley (24.1%) and RJ Barrett (23.4%) are both seeing nice usage in the Raptors offense, and we get a nice narrative tonight with them both heading back to Madison Square Garden to face the Knicks. On the other side, Jalen Brunson continues to put up big numbers, carrying a 28% usage while averaging 1.32 FP/minute. I like stacking up Brunson, Quickley, and Barrett tonight.
TastefulTides: The Wizards and Spurs rank 1st and 3rd respectively in pace. Both teams are in the bottom 6 in defensive rating. This game also has a 2.5-point spread.
TJ Zwarych: Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett are both locked into roles of 30+ minutes with the Raptors, and they return to New York to face the Knicks tonight for the first time since their trade.
