NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel (Wednesday)

Core Plays

James Harden (PG/SG – LAC): $8,300 DraftKings, $9,100 FanDuel
The Beard took over at the end of Game 4, and he will keep doing that as long as Kawhi remains out. We’re willing to trust Harden because he will stuff the stat sheet whether Leonard is in or not. The former All-Star has scored at least 37 DraftKings points in the last seven games he’s finished, posting a 41-point average across 36 minutes a night. That will be his floor with Leonard out, especially since he faces an 18th-ranked Dallas defense.
