NBA DFS Picks for October 28: LaMelo Ball Among Top Choices
On October 28, NBA DFS players have a larger selection with 12 games scheduled, compared to just four the previous day. This increase in options presents challenges for lineup decisions, as many notable players are set to participate, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, LeBron James, and Nikola Jokic, alongside promising rookies like Caleb Wilson.
Several key players are unavailable due to injuries, including Anthony Edwards and Kawhi Leonard. This situation opens opportunities for other players to step up. DFS expert Mike McClure, who has earned over $2 million in winnings, provides insights into optimal picks for the day, emphasizing the importance of checking player rankings and advice before finalizing lineups.
One of McClure's highlighted picks is LaMelo Ball, who is priced at $7,700 on DraftKings and $7,900 on FanDuel. With Edwards sidelined, Ball is expected to take on a significant role in scoring and playmaking for the Timberwolves. He faces a favorable matchup against the Warriors, who have struggled defensively against point guards this season. Additionally, McClure recommends Hawks guard CJ McCollum, who has been performing well and has a strong track record against the Heat.
