DraftKings NBA DFS Picks Today, November 25
5 –Â Brandon Ingram
Position: SG/SF | Salary: $8,700
Projections: 25.7 Points, 5.5 Rebounds, 6.4 Assists, 1.4 Stocks
There’s still some uncertainty around New Orleans’ rotation with several players questionable or out, but Ingram remains a strong option. With shooting guard and small forward eligibility, he’s in a dream matchup against an Indiana team that doesn’t exactly bring defensive intensity. At this price and in this game environment, he’s in a solid spot. The Pelicans’ injuries keep the offensive burden on him, making Ingram a great play for tonight.
4 – Trey Murphy
Position: SF/PF | Salary: $6,400
Projections: 19.1 Points, 5.7 Rebounds, 2.8 Assists, 1.7 Stocks
Sticking with the Pelicans, Murphy edges out Ingram in my rankings. His minutes have started to ramp up as New Orleans waits for more players to return, and he is locked into significant playing time in a prime matchup against the Pacers. While he may not have the raw scoring ceiling of Ingram, his price tag makes him incredibly cost-effective. Murphy fills multiple categories and could exceed the 33 minutes I’ve given him. He’s an excellent mid-range option tonight.
3 – Kevin Porter Jr.
Position: PG | Salary: $4,400
Projections: 12.9 Points, 3.2 Rebounds, 3.6 Assists, 1.0 Stocks
Don’t be surprised if Porter drops in my rankings as better value emerges throughout the day. He’s a point guard-only option, and it’s not the most appealing matchup against Boston, especially with Kristaps Porzingis likely in the mix. However, Porter’s value comes from his ability to deliver in limited minutes. If he gets extended run tonight, his production should scale with it, making him a decent value option despite the matchup.
2 –Â Robert Williams
Position: PF/C | Salary: $4,800
Projections: 9.6 Points, 8.1 Rebounds, 1.8 Assists, 2.5 Stocks
It’s all about value. With Deandre Ayton doubtful and Donovan Clingan already ruled out, Williams is positioned for significant minutes. If he gets closer to 28 or 29 minutes, his ceiling skyrockets, but even in 24 to 25 minutes, he’s one of the best per-minute producers on the slate. His ability to rack up stocks makes him a high-upside play regardless of his workload.
1 –Â P.J. Washington
Position: PF | Salary: $6,000
Projections: 16.3 Points, 7.5 Rebounds, 2.8 Assists, 2.2 Stocks
With Luka Doncic sidelined for Dallas, Washington steps into a massive opportunity. He played heavy minutes in his last outing and should see a similar workload tonight as he settles back into a starter role. At this price, he’s wildly underpriced for his potential. Doncic’s absence redistributes a ton of usage, assists and rebounds, and no one benefits more than Washington.
