NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/27/23 - Monkey Knife Fight

Stephen Curry - NBA DFS Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball

Monkey Knife Fight only has two games posted this morning, so this article will get updated throughout the day as more games get listed on the site. Assuming the lineups don’t change, both Bucks-Pacers and Timberwolves-Grizzlies are expected to be fast-paced, high-scoring games and will be the last two games featured in this article, whenever they are announced.

If Giannis Antetokounmpo, Buddy Hield, Anthony Edwards, and Ja Morant are the four being chosen for those last two games, the overs are looking incredibly feasible. The biggest concern would be Hield, and hoping his projected doesn’t shoot-up to something like 22.5 points, anything under that is worth an investment.

MonkeyKnifeFight.com is always ahead of the curve with their canceling of contests amid postponements, so don't worry about wasting money on a player or game that might not play. As always, you can find me in the NBA Chat Room or @HalfCourtJester on Twitter with any questions, especially since lines and players are subject to change throughout the day.

ORL @ MIA

Jimmy Butler (MIA) LESS 21.5 Points – Paolo Banchero (ORL) MORE 19.5 Points

The under here for Jimmy Butler makes sense since he’s taken a backseat in the offense, presumably due to a lingering back injury. He’s taken 14-shots total in his last two games and has scored over 20-points in just one of his last six contests. Judging by the game log, Butler should continue to ease his way through this dead-part of this season, but that’s not to say he just can’t have a good game. Scoring 22-points is nothing to him, but he won’t score if he doesn’t have to.

For Paolo Banchero, the potential Rookie of the Year has scored under 20-points in just 15 of his 40 games. He’s performed fairly well in back-to-backs this season, so although this will be his first meeting with both the Heat tonight and the Bulls tomorrow, the only noticeable threat to his production would be Bam Adebayo. Adebayo is carrying Miami’s defense currently, and with the role players the Heat are currently fielding, defense is their foundation. Sadly, that’s not saying much in an offense-driven league.

TOR @ GSW

Stephen Curry (GSW) MORE 27.5 Points – Pascal Siakam (TOR) MORE 24.5 Points

Even after getting ejected in the last minute of the fourth quarter against the Grizzlies, Stephen Curry is building off a 34-point game and the Raptors defense against shooters needs improvement. The Warriors will always have options and Head Coach Steve Kerr is still willing to adapt to opponents. Granted, that will never be something as drastic as benching Curry, but it’s good to see a coach try something new whether it succeeds or not. If the Warriors decide to go with their “hyper-small” lineup again, Curry still has the most upside.

Pascal Siakam has only scored over 25-points in five of his last 10 games, but his usage has remained consistently above 25% in all but three. He’s not wavering as a pivotal part of this offense and he’s taking at least 13-shots every game. He has taken under 10-shots since last season and the Raptors rotation last game consisted of eight players. Toronto can’t exactly afford to shy away from their most well-rounded player.
