NBA DFS: Top DraftKings, FanDuel daily Fantasy basketball picks for Tuesday, May 14 include Nikola Jokic

The Knicks vs. Pacers series and Nuggets vs. Timberwolves series have gone about as opposite as possible when getting to the same results heading into Game 5. The home team has won all four games in the Eastern Conference semifinals series while the road team has won all four in the Western matchup. The Knicks return to Madison Square Garden after dropping their last two, and with a lineup missing multiple injured starters and rotation players, how should you construct your Tuesday NBA DFS strategy with the limited Knicks options in the NBA DFS player pool? 

The Knicks used 11 players in Game 4, but that was due to the lopsided score to allow their primary players to rest. New York only had seven players play more than five minutes in Game 3, so should you stack New York starters like Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart or Donte DiVincenzo in NBA DFS lineups on sites like FanDuel and DraftKings due to their high usages? Before making your NBA DFS picks, be sure to check out the NBA DFS advice, player rankings, stacks, and top daily Fantasy basketball picks from SportsLine’s Mike McClure.

McClure is a DFS professional with more than $2 million in career winnings. He’s also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every minute of every game 10,000 times, taking factors like matchups, statistical trends and injuries into account.

This allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They’re a must-see for any NBA DFS player.

On Monday, McClure highlighted Celtics forward Jayson Tatum as one of his top picks in his NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Tatum had 33 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and two steals, returning 60.75 points on DraftKings and 58.7 points on FanDuel. Anybody who included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable day. 

McClure has turned his attention to NBA action on Tuesday and locked in his top daily Fantasy basketball picks. You can only see them by heading to SportsLine.
