With only 4 games on this slate, let’s take a look at my picks for the 10/25 NBA Slate.

Bradley Beal (WAS) vs. DET ($8400 DK, $7800 FD)
Up for Beal is a matchup against the Pistons (17th OPRK). Beal is the Wizards team and should continue putting up solid numbers in this matchup vs the young Pistons backcourt.
John Wall (LAC) @ OKC ($5200 DK, $5700 FD)
Wall is starting to look like the John Wall of old. Look for him to continue that in this contest. Wall has posted at least 24 fantasy points in both contests he’s played in this year and I’d be surprised if he didn’t top that in this contest.
Steph Curry (GS) @ PHO ($9900 DK, $10400 FD)
Usually, I wouldn’t recommend a guy like Steph Curry, but with a 4 game slate, Steph is the safest bet to put up a lot of points. He has 40+ fantasy points in each of the first 3 games no matter the format.
Tim Hardaway Jr. (DAL) @ NOP ($4900 DK, $4500 FD)
It is always a dice roll with THJ, but in this spot I’m comfortable with rolling the dice here given that he has the potential to outproduce his price tag here.

In a slate with not a ton of top end big man, Porzingis is the best option here. He goes up the Pistons who rank 20th against opposing big men.
Tre Murphy (NOP) vs. DAL ($4800 DK, $5600 FD)

With both Ingram and Zion questionable at best for this contest, someone will have to step up, and Murphy has a great chance to do that. This is good value for a guy that should see 35+ minutes if either of those guys miss this contest.
Andrew Wiggins (GS) @ PHO ($7100 DK, $7800 FD)
Wiggins really has appeared to vaulted himself into what he was supposed to be when he was drafted. Look for him to keep the good times rolling today. He has at least 38 fantasy points in every game this season.
Larry Nance (NOP) vs. DAL ($5000 DK, $5500 FD)
I know I recommend Murphy already, but someone else will have to step up for the Pelicans. Nance is set up to do so, and he’s coming off a solid 27 fantasy points performance.
Centers
DeAndre Ayton (PHO) vs. GS ($6700 DK, $7000 FD)
It’s hard to find guys with stable floors, and Ayton is one of the few that has one. A matchup vs an undersized Golden State gives him a great opportunity to rebound from his floor performance.
Isaiah Stewart (DET) @ WAS ($5300 DK, $6000 FD)
Stewart has gotten off to a great start to the season given his value, as he has scored at least 26 fantasy points in each contest. The Wizards aren’t exactly known for their defense up front, so there’s an opportunity for him to excel in this one.
