NBA DraftKings DFS Picks 8/25/2020

THE STAR

Kawhi Leonard ($10,000)

This slate will have alot of moving parts based on the status of Kristaps Porzingis. For now Kawhi is my star, but that could change if Porzingis is ruled out. Kawhi Leonard has been very solid all series and with the series tied at 2-2, I fully expect Kawhi at his best and even more so with a struggling Paul George. Kawhi is considered to be one of the best post season players in NBA history dont be suprised if you see 60+ DK points from Kawhi in this one.

THE MID-RANGE

Lou Williams ($6,400)

Normally I’m not a huge Lou Williams guy, however the Clippers have huge issues at point guard. Landry Shamet has been starting over Reggie Jackson, Patrick Beverly is considered doubtful, so that means I can safely project Lou Williams for 30+ minutes. Normally Lou Williams would have to score 25 points to hit value, but hes now the primary distributor on this team, giving him the assist upside that he needs at this price.

THE VALUE

Maxi Kleber ($4,200)

Again I cant emphasize how important the Kristaps Porzingis news is. I am projecting him in for now and that lands me on Kleber. Kleber’s minutes will not be affected by the Porzingis news. If Porzingis is out you can safely play Dorian Finney-Smith, Trey Burke, even a guy like Boban. Keep an eye on Porzingis news, this article is projecting him in.
