The NBA presents Draftkings basketball fans with a Western Conference playoff matchup featuring the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Let’s take a look at this game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Oklahoma City Thunder game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tomorrow night’s Timberwolves vs. Thunder matchup.

Draftkings NBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Jalen Williams, Forward, Oklahoma City Thunder $9,400

In the 81 games that Williams has played for the Oklahoma City Thunder in the 2024 NBA season (including playoffs), Williams is averaging 21.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.7 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 81 games that Jalen Williams has played for the Thunder this season, Williams has averaged 40.3 Draftkings points a game.

It is noteworthy that these two teams have met multiple times this season. How did Jalen Williams perform in the most recent matchup? In the Oklahoma City Thunder’s 114-98 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves two days ago, Thunder forward Jalen Williams played rather well. More specifically, Williams compiled 19 points, eight rebounds, five assists and five steals in the Thunder’s victory over the Timberwolves.

In summary, I think Jalen Williams reasonable Draftkings price of $9,400 presents outstanding value. For that specific reason, I am backing Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Anthony Edwards, Guard, Minnesota Timberwolves $11,800

Guard Anthony Edwards has been the driving force behind the Minnesota Timberwolves success on the basketball court this season. Let’s examine Edwards game data from the 2024 NBA season (including playoff games) to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 89 games that guard Anthony Edwards has played for the Minnesota Timberwolves in the 2024 NBA season, Edwards is averaging 27.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.7 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 89 games that Anthony Edwards played for the Timberwolves this season, Edwards compiled a 44.7% field goal percentage, a 39.5% three-point percentage, and an 83.7% free throw percentage.

More recently, in the Timberwolves 121-110 defeat of the Golden State Warriors one week ago, Anthony Edwards amassed 57.3 Draftkings points.

In conclusion, I fully expect Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards to continue his outstanding play in tomorrow evening’s matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in tomorrow night’s Western Conference playoff game (Draftkings price noted): Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Point Guard (Oklahoma City Thunder) $12,400: Mike Conley, Guard (Minnesota Timberwolves) $4,800: Naz Reid, Forward (Minnesota Timberwolves) $6,200.

The UFL presents Draftkings football fans with a regular season matchup featuring the Houston Roughnecks and the DC Defenders. Let’s take a look at this game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Houston Roughnecks vs. DC Defenders game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this week’s Roughnecks vs. Defenders matchup.

Draftkings UFL Picks

Captain-Jordan Ta’amu, Quarterback, DC Defenders $12,000

Veteran quarterback Jordan Ta’amu has been a solid performer for the DC Defenders this season. With that said, how has the talented UFL quarterback performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s examine Ta’amu’s relevant game data from the 2025 UFL regular season to answer that question.

In the eight games that quarterback Jordan Ta’amu has played for the DC Defenders this season, Ta’amu has amassed a UFL leading 1,990 passing yards, 16 passing touchdowns, 171 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.

Examining the data just presented more closely, in the eight games that Jordan Ta’amu has played for the Defenders this season, Ta’amu is averaging a rather impressive 23.2 Draftkings points a contest.

More recently, in the DC Defenders 33-30 win over the Arlington Renegades last week, DC quarterback Jordan Ta’amu played exceptionally well. Ta’amu compiled 240 passing yards, two passing touchdowns and 21 rushing yards in the DC Defenders victory over the Renegades.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings UFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups.

In my view, Jordan Ta’amu is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this UFL regular season game. For that specific reason, I am backing DC Defenders quarterback Jordan Ta’amu at the captain position for this one game Draftkings UFL Showdown contest.

Flex Plays

Justin Hall, Wide Receiver, Houston Roughnecks $10,800

Wide receiver Justin Hall has certainly been a key contributor for the Houston Roughnecks this season. Let’s examine Hall’s game data from the 2025 UFL season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the eight games played in the 2025 UFL season, Houston Roughnecks quarterbacks have targeted wide receiver Justin Hall a whopping 70 times. In those 70 targets, Hall tallied 48 receptions, 353 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns.

In conclusion, I fully expect Justin Hall to continue his outstanding play in Sunday’s UFL matchup with the DC Defenders.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in this UFL game (Draftkings price noted): Jalen McClendon, Quarterback (Houston Roughnecks) $10,000: Cornell Powell, Wide Receiver (DC Defenders) $6,800.

Major League Baseball presents Draftkings baseball fans with a National League matchup featuring the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Dodgers game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings MLB single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tonight’s Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Dodgers matchup.

Draftkings MLB Showdown Picks

Captain-Dustin May, Starting Pitcher, Los Angeles Dodgers $10,600

On Tuesday night, Major League Baseball presents the final game of a three-game National League series featuring the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

How are these two teams playing entering tonight’s MLB game? The Los Angeles Dodgers arrive at the third game of this three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks playing below average baseball. The Dodgers have lost four of the team’s last five games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 6-4 loss to the Los Angeles Angels four days ago.

Conversely, the Arizona Diamondbacks are playing well entering this evening’s National League game. More specifically, the Diamondbacks have won four of the team’s last six games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including an 8-0 shutout win over the Colorado Rockies last week.

Now that we have identified how both of these teams are currently playing let’s shift our focus to this evening’s contest. Starting pitcher Dustin May has been a standout performer for the Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitching rotation this season. Having stated that, how has the veteran pitcher performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s review May’s relevant game data from the 2025 MLB regular season to answer that question.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May has compiled a 1-4 (won-loss record), a 4.43 ERA (Earned Run Average) and a 1.28 WHIP (Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched) in 2025. It should also be mentioned that May has amassed 41 strikeouts while allowing 17 walks in 44.2 innings pitched this season.

More recently, in the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies last month, Los Angeles starting pitcher Dustin May certainly pitched exceptionally well. May pitched six quality innings while scattering three hits and no walks in the Dodgers victory over the Rockies. Additionally, in the Dodgers win over the Colorado Rockies, May accumulated a whopping 27.7 Draftkings points.

In my opinion, Dustin May is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in tonight’s MLB game. With that said, I am backing Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May at the captain position for this one game MLB DFS slate.

Flex plays I like to play well in this MLB regular season contest (Draftkings price noted): Corbin Burnes, Starting Pitcher (Arizona Diamondbacks) $12,400: Shohei Ohtani, First Baseman (Los Angeles Dodgers) $9,400: Freddie Freeman, First Baseman (Los Angeles Angels) $9,000.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tonight’s New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics matchup.

Draftkings NBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Karl-Anthony Towns, Center, New York Knicks $9,800

Veteran center Karl-Anthony Towns has been a standout performer for the New York Knicks this season. To assess Karl-Anthony Towns performance from a statistical standpoint, let’s review Towns relevant game data from the 2024 NBA season. This will provide a clear picture of Karl-Anthony Towns overall contributions to the New York Knicks this season.

In the 84 games that center Karl-Anthony Towns played for the New York Knicks in the 2024 NBA season (including playoff games), Towns is averaging 23.9 points, 12.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.7 blocks a game.

Examining the data just presented more closely, in the 84 games that Karl-Anthony Towns has played for the New York Knicks this season, Towns has compiled a 52.6% field goal percentage, a 42% three-point percentage and an 82.9% free throw percentage.

These two teams have met multiple times this season. How did Anthony Towns perform in the most recent matchup? Who prevailed? In February, Karl-Anthony Towns had a dominant performance in the New York Knicks 128-115 win over the Indiana Pacers. Anthony Towns finished the game with 40 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals, making 14 of 23 shots from the field.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NBA showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups.

In summary, I think Karl-Anthony Towns is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this NBA playoff game. For that specific reason, I am backing New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Jalen Brunson, Point Guard, New York Knicks $11,000

In addition to center Karl-Anthony Towns, point guard Jalen Brunson has been an essential part of the New York Knicks starting lineup this season. With that said, how has Brunson played recently?

In the New York Knicks 119-81 victory over the Boston Celtics five days ago, New York point guard Jalen Brunson tallied 23 points, six rebounds and six assists in 35 minutes of play.

In conclusion, I fully expect Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson to continue his outstanding play in tonight’s matchup with the Indiana Pacers.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in this NBA playoff game (Draftkings price noted): Josh Hart, Forward (New York Knicks) $8,800: Tyrese Haliburton, Point Guard (Indiana Pacers) $10,600: Myles Turner, Center (Indiana Pacers) $8,000.

Major League Baseball presents Draftkings baseball fans with an interleague matchup featuring the Kansas City Royals and the San Francisco Giants. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Kansas City Royals vs. San Francisco Giants game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings MLB single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tonight’s Kansas City Royals vs. San Francisco Giants matchup.

Draftkings MLB Showdown Picks

Captain-Logan Webb, Starting Pitcher, San Francisco Giants $12,400

Later today, Major League Baseball presents the final game of a three-game interleague series featuring the Kansas City Royals and the San Francisco Giants.

How are these two teams playing entering tonight’s MLB game? The San Francisco Giants arrive at the third game of this three-game series with the Kansas City Royals playing good baseball. The Giants have won four of the team’s last five games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 3-2 win over the Athletics three days ago.

Conversely, the Kansas City Royals are playing below average baseball entering the third game of this interleague series. The Royals have lost five of the team’s last seven games played this season, including a 4-3 loss to the Houston Astros last week.

Now that we have determined how both of these teams are currently playing let’s shift our focus to tonight’s contest. Starting pitcher Logan Webb has been a solid performer for the San Francisco Giants starting pitching rotation this season. With that said, how has Webb performed from a statistical perspective in 2025? Let’s review the veteran hurler’s relevant game data from the 2025 MLB regular season to answer that question.

Through ten starts made in 2025, San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb has compiled a 5-3 (win-loss record), a 2.42 ERA (Earned Run Average) and a 1.12 WHIP (Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched). Additionally, Logan Webb has tallied 69 strikeouts while allowing 16 walks in 63.1 innings pitched this season.

More recently, in the San Francisco Giants dominant 9-1 victory over the Athletics five days ago, San Francisco starting pitcher Logan Webb pitched exceptionally well. More specifically, Webb pitched eight quality innings while scattering five hits and two walks in the Giants win over the Athletics.

In my view, Logan Webb is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in tonight’s MLB regular season game. Having stated that, I am backing San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb at the captain position for this one game MLB DFS slate.

Flex plays I like to play well in this MLB regular season game (Draftkings price noted): Luinder Avila, Starting Pitcher (Kansas City Royals) $10,400: Heliot Ramos, Outfielder (San Francisco Giants) $7,800: Maikel Garcia, Third Baseman (Kansas City Royals) $8,800.

The WNBA presents Draftkings basketball fans with a regular season matchup featuring the Los Angeles Sparks and the Phoenix Mercury. Let’s take a look at this game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Los Angeles Sparks vs. Phoenix Mercury game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for tomorrow night’s Los Angeles Sparks vs. Phoenix Mercury matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Dearica Hamby, Forward, Los Angeles Sparks $10,800

Talented forward Dearica Hamby was a solid performer for the Los Angeles Sparks last season. Let’s review Hamby’s relevant player data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on the veteran forward’s overall contributions to her team.

In the 40 games that Dearica Hamby played for the Los Angeles Sparks in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Hamby averaged a rather impressive 17.3 points, 9.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.2 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 40 games that Dearica Hamby played for the Sparks in 2024, Hamby averaged 37.3 Draftkings points a contest.

More recently, in the Los Angeles Sparks 84-67 win over the Golden State Valkyries four days ago, Los Angeles forward Dearica Hamby played exceptionally well. More specifically, Hamby amassed 20 points, ten rebounds and two assists in the Sparks defeat of the Valkyries.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings WNBA showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups.

In summary, I think Los Angeles Sparks forward Dearica Hamby is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this WNBA regular season game. With that said, I am backing Dearica Hamby at the captain position for this one game Draftkings WNBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Azura Stevens, Forward, Los Angeles Sparks $8,800

In addition to Dearica Hamby, forward Azura Stevens has been a key contributor for the Los Angeles Sparks this season.

In the two games that forward Azura Stevens has played for the Los Angeles Sparks in the 2025 WNBA regular season, Stevens is averaging a robust 16 points, 5.5 rebounds, 0.5 assist, 3 steals and 1.5 blocks a game.

In conclusion, I fully expect Los Angeles Sparks forward Azura Stevens to play well in tomorrow night’s WNBA regular season matchup with the Pheonix Mercury.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in this WNBA regular season game (Draftkings price noted): Kelsey Plum, Guard (Los Angeles Sparks) $10,600: Alyssa Thomas, Forward (Phoenix Mercury) $10,200: Kalani Brown, Forward (Phoenix Mercury) $5,000.
