DraftKings NBA Pick6 fantasy basketball lineup for April 20

Knicks Alperen Sengun 9.5 rebounds: MORE

Alperen Sengun posted a career-high 10.3 rebounds per game this season, so an average performance will get the job done against Golden State today. The big man averaged 11.2 boards across four matchups with the Dubs, and he pulled down more than 9.5 in three of them.

Knicks Kristaps Porzingis 25.5 points+rebounds: MORE

Kristaps Porzingis only appeared in 42 games this season, but he was productive when on the court. Porzingis averaged 19.5 points and 6.8 boards, good for 26.3 PR. He was more productive at home, going for 19.8 points and 7.4 boards. In 17 games at TD Garden, Porzingis finished with more than 25.5 PR 10 times and posted exactly 25 in one more.

Knicks Stephen Curry 24.5 points: MORE

Stephen Curry finished with just three points in his last game against the Rockets, but aside from that dud he was superb to close the 2024-25 campaign. Across his final nine games, the Chef cooked opponents for 30 points per game and went for more than 24.5 seven times. He scored at least 25 points in 35 of 70 games overall, including 19 on the road.

Knicks Draymond Green 20.5 points+rebounds+assists: MORE

Draymond Green finished the season with averages of nine points, 6.1 rebounds, and 5.6 assists, good for 20.7 PRA. He posted more than 20.5 in 36 of 68 contests overall, including two of four against Houston. Green will need to be tenacious on the glass as Golden State’s small-ball center against a big Rockets frontcourt.

He’ll also need to operate as an elite playmaker and feed Jimmy Butler and Steph Curry as he did in the Warriors’ Play-In victory over the Grizzlies, in which he dished 10 dimes. 

Knicks Derrick White 13.5 points: MORE

This is a mispriced line, so I’ll gladly take more here. Derrick White averaged a career-best 16.4 points this season, including 17.2 at home compared to just 15.6 on the road. He finished with more than 13.5 points in 11 of his last 15 and in 54 of 76 overall.

Knicks Andrew Wiggins 17.5 points: MORE

Andrew Wiggins has been one of Miami’s most dependable scoring options since arriving in South Beach. He’s averaged 19.9 points across 17 games and has gone for more than 17.5 in 11 of them. That includes five of eight games on the road.
