DFS NBA Player Picks, Betting Lines – April 8: Tyreke Evans, Anthony Davis

Gambling911.com has your DFS NBA player picks and betting lines for Wednesday’s extensive game schedule beginning with a Pelicans squad that will be desperate tonight versus a Grizzlies team that is not.

Tyreke Evans – New Orleans PG - $7.9K – Let’s face it, the Grizzlies have little else to play for now that they have secured their post season spot whereas New Orleans has everything to play for in a fight to grab that number 8 seed.  Evans played Memphis especially well last time with 26 made baskets to go along with 7 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block.

Anthony Davis – New Orleans - $11.2K – Though pricey, Davis has the potential to hit over 50 fantasy points this evening.  He made over 45 last time facing the Griz.  He hit 50 fantasy points in his last game against Golden State.  Davis is a player who has little trouble stepping it up when needed.

Omer Asik – New Orleans - $4.8K – His 3 blocks and 2 steals against Memphis last time helped pad his fantasy stats.  But it was also those 11 assists that helped seal the deal.  We anticipate even better defensive numbers and hopefully improved scoring for this matchup.  Asik also enjoyed 10 rebounds the other night against Golden State. 

Bradley Beal – Washington SG - $6K – Philadelphia has allowed the 2nd most fantasy points to opposing shooting guards this season.  Beal easily scored over 30 fantasy points against the 76ers last time facing them.  He hit 30 fantasy points against a solid Memphis team four nights ago and comes into this game with plenty of rest. 

Pau Gasol – Chicago PF - $8.2K – Gasol had little trouble topping the 50 fantasy point mark last time facing a Magic team that gives up the 7th most fantasy points to opposing power forwards.  He’ll need to hit 34 to make value here.

Jimmy Butler – Chicago SG - $7.8K – Butler scored 27 baskets the last time he faced Orlando.  He added 6 steals as well.  Just do the math and it’s easy to see that a repeat performance will bring Butler well over value.  Butler is having a tough time hitting value in recent games, failing to do so against Detroit the other night and just barely hitting target versus Cleveland the last time he played.

Brook Lopez – Brooklyn C - $8.3K – Ever since March 14, Brooklyn has been on fire.  They had one lameo game the other night versus Atlanta so one would think the Nets have revenge on their mind.  Lopez has been a critical part of the Nets turnaround, scoring 32 baskets the other night against Portland.  He approached 50 fantasy points that evening.  Lopez did have a rare off night against Atlanta.

Michael Carter-Williams – Milwaukee PG - $6.4K – He played well the other night, scoring over 30 fantasy points, but more importantly, versus Cleveland, he managed to cross over the 40 fantasy point mark last time facing the Cavs.

Sixers? Knicks? Who Can Challenge Boston in the East this Season?

As the new NBA season gets underway, there is most certainly a sense that the Boston Celtics are the team to beat once again. The 18-time champions really took an “if it’s not broken, don’t try to fix it” policy in the offseason, and it’s hard to argue with the tactic.
