NBA DFS Picks Overview

Tyrese Maxey More 23.5 Points (Splash Sports)

Tyrese Maxey has been on a scoring tear to open the 2026-27 season, making this 23.5-point line appealing. He’s averaging 28.4 points per game through five appearances and has scored at least 26 points in every game this season. Maxey is coming off a 27-point performance against Indiana on Wednesday, shooting 8-of-18 from the field and 3-of-7 from beyond the arc. He also scored 28 points against the Knicks in their previous meeting on Oct. 20. With Maxey consistently carrying Philadelphia’s scoring load, I like him to reach 24 points again

Cooper Flagg More 34.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (Betr)

Cooper Flagg has been making an impact in every area of the box score, averaging 25.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 6.8 assists through his first four games. That comes out to 37.4 combined PRA per game, nearly three points above Friday’s line. Flagg has cleared 34.5 PRA in three of four appearances, including a 43-PRA performance against Houston in the season opener and a 46-PRA outing against Miami on Monday. He also finished with 39 combined points, rebounds and assists against Oklahoma City on Wednesday. His ability to contribute as both a scorer and facilitator gives him multiple paths to clear this number.

Luka Doncic More 34.5 Points (Underdog)

Luka Doncic has been one of the NBA’s most productive scorers early this season, averaging 36 points per game through four appearances. He’s gone over 34.5 points in two straight games, posting 52 against Utah and 41 against Portland. Doncic is averaging 22.8 field-goal attempts and 13.3 three-point attempts per game, showing just how much of the Lakers’ offense runs through him. He did score only 28 points in his first meeting with Golden State on Oct. 21, so there’s some matchup context to consider. Still, his recent scoring volume and 36-point season average make this a strong option.
