We’re now into the Conference semifinals, with the Cavaliers advancing past the Pistons in a Game 7 blowout to face the Knicks. In the West, the Thunder will start their series against the Spurs tonight at 8:30 PM EST.
There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in the action this evening. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this year is Pick6 Fantasy Basketball!
This article will look at my top Pick6 plays for tonight’s slate. We simply choose whether a player will record more or less of the set statistic. Here are my favorite plays for tonight’s action.
Wembanyama was an absolute machine on the boards in the Spurs’ series victory over the Timberwolves, pulling down 12 RPG. He only had six in the closeout game, but it was mostly due to the Spurs stomping the Wolves out of their own home court with a 30 point victory. Wembanyama only played 27 minutes and coasted to an easy Spurs dub.
The matchup bodes well for Wembanyama’s rebounding chances. The Thunder conceded the 10th most rebounds in the league to opponents in the regular season and lack the size to fully control the glass. Wembanyama’s massive frame will be a problem for them, and his size will present a challenge not only defensively, but also for their ability to attack the glass for second chances.
Harper’s an intriguing talent that’s made his make in these playoffs, scoring as high as 24 points in his first ever playoff run. The Spurs’ future looks immaculate, and Harper figures to be a core piece of that. Despite De’Aaron Fox being questionable to suit up tonight, I’m anticipating that he still plays. Even if he doesn’t, OKC’s pesky perimeter defense will take some time to get used to, so Harper doesn’t figure to be in a big scoring spot tonight.
The Spurs’ will throw Stephon Castle on SGA to wear him down throughout the series. Castle, as well as any other defenders who switch onto SGA, will be able to pressure him relentlessly while trying not to foul him because they know that they have a 7’4 Wembanyama waiting behind them ready to play help defense. I’m expecting Shai to have a tough night scoring the basketball. The DPOY on the Spurs will anchor their defense and make things tough near the rim and mid range, where Gilgeous-Alexander excels.
