There’s only six games on the slate tonight but I’ll focus my entries on a variety of players, including superstars Luka Doncic and Steph Curry. Draymond Green should drop dimes as well, while I’m expecting Alperen Sengun to make his presence felt once again on the glass.

DraftKings NBA Pick6 fantasy basketball lineup for February 6
Luka Doncic 28.5 points: MORE
It took Luka Doncic a few games, but he’s found his footing with the Los Angeles Lakers after the blockbuster trade that shocked the entire sports world. Luka has scored more than 28.5 points in three straight contests, going for 31, 29, and 30. This is exactly why the Lakers acquired him in the first place.
L.A. is at the iconic Madison Square Garden tonight to face the Knicks and while Doncic hasn’t played against them since last season, he produced 39 points in that game. The superstar will show up and show out.
Stephen Curry 25.5 points: MORE
The Golden State Warriors look like a whole different team since trading for Jimmy Butler, and Stephen Curry has benefited by the arrival of the former Miami Heat star. Since the ASG break, Steph is averaging 28.4 points in seven appearances.
He’s registered more than 25.5 points in three of his last four games, posting 56, 29, and 28 points. Curry and the Dubs take on the Brooklyn Nets this evening, and he’s already balled out for 28 against them this season.
Draymond Green 5.5 assists: MORE
From one Warrior to another. While Draymond Green has never been much of a scorer, he is undoubtedly a solid facilitator who knows exactly how to get his teammates involved. Green is averaging 5.8 assists this season and has dished out more than 5.5 in four of his last five games.
Green is averaging 6.9 dimes since the All-Star festivities in the Bay Area and compiled seven assists against the Nets earlier this season. Brooklyn is also 16th in the NBA in most assists allowed. Draymond will get in on the action as a playmaker.
Cam Johnson 2.5 threes: LESS
Cam Johnson is one of the better 3-point shooters around, averaging 3.0 makes on 7.4 attempts per night for a 39.8% clip from downtown. However, his numbers have tapered off as of late, draining just two triples per game since the All-Star break for a 30% clip.
He’s converted less than 2.5 treys in three of his last five and the Dubs are 15th in the league in 3-point percentage allowed, holding opponents to 35% from beyond the arc. They will keep Johnson at bay tonight.
Jaylen Brown 22.5 points: MORE
Jaylen Brown is having another impressive campaign for the defending champions, averaging 23.1 PPG. He’s dropped more than 22.5 just twice in his previous five outings, but the veteran is scoring 24.2 points per nine in seven games since the break.
The Boston Celtics take on the lowly Philadelphia 76ers tonight and while he’s averaged 21.3 PPG against them in three meetings this season, they’re depleted and Brown is feeling it lately. I could see a big night for him.
Alperen Sengun 10.5 rebounds: MORE
The Houston Rockets are flourishing and Alperen Sengun is a large part of their success. While he’s their second-best scorer, the big man is their top rebounder, averaging 10.5 boards per contest. He’s a beast on the glass.
Sengun has brought down more than 10.5 rebounds in three of his last five appearances and has averaged 11 boards since the ASG break. The Rockets clash with the New Orleans Pelicans tonight, who he’s averaged 11 rebounds against this season.
