- Anthony Edwards is a top DFS pick at $8,800 on DraftKings and $9,500 on FanDuel after posting 22‑9‑7 and 30‑10‑0 stat lines in Games 1‑2.
- Nikola Jokic commands $12,700 (DK) and $12,500 (FD) and delivered back‑to‑back triple‑double‑adjacent performances (25‑13‑11, 24‑15‑8) in the series.
- Mike McClure has $2 million career DFS winnings and runs a 10,000‑simulation model to value players for DraftKings and FanDuel lineups.
- Game 3 matchups feature Knicks–Hawks at 7 p.m. ET, Cavaliers–Raptors at 8 p.m. ET, and Nuggets–Timberwolves at 9:30 p.m. ET, shrinking the DFS player pool.
- DraftKings lists Edwards at $8,800 and Jokic at $12,700, marking them as premium picks in a thin Game 3 pool.
Why it matters: DFS players can profit from McClure’s $2M‑track record picks, especially with Edwards at $8.8K and Jokic at $12.7K, while over‑priced stars risk busting, shifting betting odds and lineups.
