DraftKings NBA Pick6 fantasy basketball lineup for April 13
Anthony Edwards 34.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists: MORE
Anthony Edwards’ 16th technical was rescinded, and he’ll be available for a pivotal matchup against the Jazz today. The Wolves need a win (and some help from other teams) to avoid a spot in the Play-In Tournament, and Edwards will be leading the charge.
He delivered a 9/4/5 line against the Nets on Friday, but he averaged a whopping 32.2 points, 5.8 boards, and four dimes in six games prior while posting 35 PRA in each one. Ant-Man has averaged 49 PRA in two matchups with Utah this season, and I expect him to crush this line and go for More than 34.5 PRA in the season finale.
Kawhi Leonard 33.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists: MORE
It’s win-and-you’re-in for the Clippers, and they’ll need Kawhi Leonard to be at his best against a Warriors team fighting to avoid the Play-In. Leonard has scored 20 or more points in 14 straight games, with averages of 26 points, 7.4 boards, and 3.4 dimes in that span. He’s gone for More than 33.5 PRA in 11 of them, including four of his last six on the road.
He hasn’t played the Warriors yet this season, but he averaged 34 PRA against them in 2023-24.
Donovan Clingan 22.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists: MORE
Portland’s center and forward depth is decimated, and Donovan Clingan should see another start and plenty of playing time. Portland is incentivized to give its lottery-pick rookie all the minutes he can handle in the finale, and I expect him to showcase his talent against a Lakers team that’s resting its starters.
Clingan has averaged 24 PRA across his last six games and gone for More than 22.5 PRA five times.
Dalano Banton 19.5 Points: MORE
The Blazers will be missing most of their key scorers today, as Anfernee Simons and Scoot Henderson are out, Deni Avdija is doubtful, and Shaedon Sharpe is questionable.
Dalano Banton has started six straight games and logged 32.8 minutes in that span. He’s posted More than 19.5 points in three of his last five, including two of three on the road. Expect a strong offensive performance to end the season.
Aaron Gordon 7.5 Rebounds + Assists: MORE
Aaron Gordon has posted strong numbers over his last 12 games, going for 8.8 rebounds + assists in that span. AG finished with More than 7.5 in eight of them, including four of his last six on the road. Gordon has averaged 8.1 rebounds + assists away from Ball Arena this season, and he posted 12 against the Rockets in his first matchup this season.
Across his last seven matchups with Houston overall, he’s averaged 10.9 rebs + asts and gone for More than 7.5 each time.
Dalton Knecht 23.5 Points: MORE
This line is set pretty high, but the Lakers will need all the help they can get on offense today.
Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura are all out. The Lakers’ four leading scorers are averaging 85.9 points per game, leaving a ton of opportunities available for Dalton Knecht to score the basketball. The rookie has averaged 21.1 points across 11 games with 30 minutes this season, and he should see ample playing time against an equally-depleted Portland squad.
