Unfortunately, the trend has been broken as tonight features only two games for us to choose from on NBA PrizePicks. While there are only two games tonight, there are still a few NBA player picks to capitalize on for our PrizePicks predictions.

NBA PrizePicks Predictions Today

Kyle Lowry – More Than 22 Fantasy Points

Sigh, I don’t really want to play Lowry, but this play on PrizePicks is too good to pass up. Without Tyler Herro, Lowry’s averages over the last two numbers have him drastically eclipsing 22 fantasy points as long as he plays a reasonable amount of minutes. He currently has a 76.12% success rate in the NBA Fantasy Pick’em Tool for PrizePicks to surpass this mark, the highest of any player prediction tonight. While he epically failed in his last game, I don’t think we can expect Lowry to pick up 3 fouls in the first few minutes of a game en route to sitting the entire first half again anytime soon.

Jalen Williams – More Than 26.5 Fantasy Points

This is a curiously low mark for Jalen Williams, who has consistently been the second-best player for the OKC Thunder so far this season. Tonight, he projects for 30 fantasy points in the RotoGrinders projections and has had more than 26.5 fantasy points in all but 4 games this season. He has nearly a 64% of eclipsing this number according to the NBA Fantasy Pick’em Tool for PrizePicks and gets a strong matchup in a fast-paced game against Golden State. While the game may be a touch slower than usual without Stephen Curry, Jalen should be needed to play big minutes if this one stays close to match up with all the lengthy wings in the Warriors front court.

Josh Richardson – More Than 16.5 Fantasy Points

While he undeniably saw an extended run last game due to Lowry’s foul trouble, Richardson has still carved himself a nice role in Herro’s absence. He’s had over 24 fantasy points in back-to-back games and is expected to be around 20 tonight in the RotoGrinders projections. The play has a 68.48% success rate in the NBA Fantasy Pick’em Tool for PrizePicks and should play somewhere in the upper 20s of minutes this evening. He’s not a massive fantasy point-per-minute producer but should still be able to eclipse 20 fantasy points with reasonable minutes tonight and the PrizePicks prediction of 16.5 is low enough to give us a little buffer room.
