DraftKings NBA Pick6 fantasy basketball lineup for April 1
Giannis Antetokounmpo 29.5 points: MORE
The Milwaukee Bucks’ playoff aspirations could be derailed by Damian Lillard’s blood clot. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo is doing all he can to carry this team. The big man has registered more than 29.5 points in four consecutive outings, putting up 32, 31, 30, and 31 points.
The Greek Freak is averaging 28.3 ppg in March and he’ll have an easier task tonight. The Bucks face the Phoenix Suns, who are terrible defensively. Antetokounmpo also scored 31 against them earlier in the campaign. He’ll show out.
Coby White 24.5 points: MORE
I included Coby White on Monday but he finally had a cold night, scoring just seven points against the first place Oklahoma City Thunder. However, the Chicago Bulls guard dropped more than 24.5 points in five games in a row before that, even going off for 30+ in three straight during that span.
White and Chicago take on the Toronto Raptors tonight, and he’s scored around 22 ppg versus them across three meetings in 2024-25. I do expect him to bounce back and put together another signature performance.
Ja Morant 23.5 points: LESS
The Memphis Grizzlies may have just fired their coach in the middle of a playoff race, but Ja Morant is still playing well. The high-flying guard has registered more than 23.5 points in four of his previous five contests. However, I’m predicting the complete opposite tonight.
The Grizz face the Golden State Warriors, who have a new defensive identity with Jimmy Butler on the roster. They also held Morant to only nine points over 20 minutes earlier in the season. I think the Dubs will lock him up.
Trae Young 11.5 assists: MORE
Trae Young is dropping dimes this season. Aside from his 24.1 ppg, he’s also averaging 11.5 assists per game. Trae is unstoppable as a playmaker, and we’ve seen just that lately. He’s dished out more than 11.5 dimes in four consecutive appearances, even finishing with 19 assists against the Bucks a couple of nights ago.
The Atlanta Hawks are up against the Portland Trail Blazers tonight, who rank around the middle of the league in assists allowed. They’re not the greatest defensive team, either. I do expect Young to facilitate at a high level again.
Devin Booker 2.5 threes: LESS
Devin Booker is having a solid campaign for the struggling Suns, but he’s not exactly thriving from downtown lately. The guard has drained less than 2.5 triples in five straight games, even finishing with zero treys made in two of those contests. Yikes.
While Kevin Durant is sidelined due to injury, Book is cold from deep right now, and the Bucks are one of the better teams in the Association at defending the triple. He’ll have another quiet evening from beyond the arc.
Quentin Grimes 20.5 points: MORE
Quentin Grimes has been one of the best stories in the NBA. With the Philadelphia 76ers ravaged by injuries, he’s been given a bigger role alongside Tyrese Maxey and has absolutely flourished. Grimes is averaging 21.8 points since coming over to the Sixers.
In March, he’s averaging 26.6 ppg in 14 appearances. Grimes has scored more than 20.5 points in four of his last five outings and will face his former team tonight, the New York Knicks. He'll show out in a "revenge game."
