Tuesday, Mar. 4 DraftKings Pick6 Selections

Our player Pick6 for tonight’s NBA competition:

• Paolo Banchero Less than 24.5 Points (vs Toronto) OR
• Paolo Banchero Less than 6.5 Rebounds (vs Toronto)*
• Zion Williamson Less than 21.5 Points (at LA Lakers)
• Luka Dončić More than 25.5 Points (vs New Orleans)
• Donovan Mitchell More than 25.5 Points (at Chicago Bulls)
• Chris Paul More than 19.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (vs Brooklyn)

*Note that you can only choose a player once in your pick with DraftPicks.

With a five-player pick (remember to choose only one of our Paolo Banchero picks), you can win as much as 12X your entry.

That means a $10 entry could be worth as much as $120 if you are correct. You can also win 1X your entry if you are correct in four of your five picks.

So far this season, Zion Williamson has scored at least 21 points in three straight games just twice

He has 24 and 27 in his last two games. The much-injured and maligned Pelican star will be on the court against the Lakers on Tuesday.

The Lakers are playing intensified defense, and have a “No Name” front court or bruisers. Also look for LeBron James to occasionally help with a double team on Zion when he receives the ball in the vicinity of the basket.

It will be a long night for Williamson, which is why we like the Pelicans forward to score under 21.5 points in Hollywood.

Veteran point guard Chris Paul has only exceeded 19.5 points + rebounds + assists once in his last five games

But, his play is becoming more steady, especially from beyond the arc: 4-for-6 in three-point attempts in his last two games.

We generally make it a policy to never trust a man with two names (also looking at you, Paul George and Aaron Gordon), but Paul is a future Hall of Famer, and he’s looked spry when he gets more reps.

Tonight at home against the Nets, one of the worst teams in the eastern conference

The Nets are a poor rebounding team, and their backcourt is sloppy and lazy on defense. We can squint our eyes and see Paul zipping passes through the porous Brooklyn defense.

And we expect the Spurs' point guard to score at least 10 points. Take the MORE on your pick for Paul at 19.5 for points/rebounds/assists.

While we didn’t make a selection for the LAC vs PHO game, that matchup will be live on national television

Take the time to check out the rotation by coach Tyronn Lue, in light of the rather serious injury to guard Norman Powell.

If Powell is out of the lineup, the offensive load will be even more shifted to ball-hog James Harden, who hoists more than 16 shots per game, but is shooting less than 34 percent from the field.

That’s a recipe for fun basketball, as Kawhi Leonard and Bogdan Bogdanović get more touches.

Top DraftKings Pick6 Selection for March 4

Banchero has 70 free throw attempts in his most recent six games.

It’s doubtful he can get to the line that much again on Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors in Orlando. In addition, his Magic are the best defensive team in the NBA.

That means we see a low-scoring game, which again makes it unlikely Paolo will score as many as 25 points or grab seven boards.
