NBA DFS Picks for October 27, 2026

NBA DFS Picks Overview

Jalen Brunson More 25 points (Splash)

Jalen Brunson is New York’s primary offensive creator, but his early-season scoring numbers make this a pick to approach carefully. He is averaging 22.7 points per game through three games in the 2026-27 season, with 21.3 field-goal attempts per game. That volume gives him chances to reach the 25-point mark, though his currentaverage sits 2.3 points below the line.

Brunson’s shot volume is an encouraging factor for the over. He is averaging 34.7 minutes per game, suggesting he continues to have a significant role in the Knicks’ offense. However, he has shot just 39.1% from the field and 26.7% from three-point range through his first three games. Improved shooting efficiency against Detroit would help his chances of reaching 25 points.

Pick: More 25 points

Dylan Harper More 17.5 Points (Betr)

Dylan Harper has made a strong early impression as San Antonio’s scorer. In his first three games of the 2026-27 season, Harper is averaging 20.0 points per game in 32.0 minutes, putting him 2.5 points above his 17.5-point projection. He has scored between 18 and 22 points in those three appearances, clearing this line every time.

Harper is also averaging 16.7 field-goal attempts per game, showing that he is getting enough opportunities to contribute consistently. He has converted 48.0% of his shots from the field, although his 28.6% three-point shooting suggests there is room for improvement from beyond the arc. His ability to score inside and create shots off the dribble gives him multiple ways to reach 18 points.

Pick: More 17.5 points

Ja Morant More 6 Assists (Underdog)

Ja Morant’s playmaking makes his assist prop worth considering against the Los Angeles Lakers. In his first two games of the 2026-27 season, Morant is averaging 7.5 assists per game, putting him 1.5 assists above the six-assist threshold. He has averaged 24.8 minutes per game in those appearances, so his early production has come without a full starter’s workload.

Morant’s ability to penetrate the defense and draw help defenders creates passing opportunities for teammates around the perimeter and near the basket. If he can maintain his current assist rate and receive additional minutes, he has a reasonable path to recording seven or more assists.

Pick: More 6 assists
