Looking for top NBA DFS picks and core plays on DraftKings? Look no further than this breakdown of the top players at each position. Here are the top picks for March 2, 2023:

Starting at the point guard position, James Harden is in great form and has a solid matchup against Dallas, making him a top option. Meanwhile, Tyrese Haliburton is listed as questionable but has an elite game environment if he plays. Luka Doncic may be in a tough matchup against the Sixers, but he’s in a back-to-back situation, which could work in his favor. Delon Wright is a reliable value play and is likely to draw another spot start for Morris, making him an excellent choice.

Moving to the shooting guard position, Klay Thompson has returned to vintage form and could be a great option against the Clippers, who have struggled on defense. Meanwhile, Bennedict Mathurin is always a volatile option, but he has a perfect matchup for a ceiling game. Donte DiVincenzo is a decent mid-range option from the Warriors, while Tyrese Maxey is still too cheap on DK, even though Embiid is expected to play. Bradley Beal is also playing well and has upside even with Porzingis back.

At small forward, Buddy Hield is affordable and has an elite matchup against the Spurs, making him a top option. Bennedict Mathurin is also a good choice due to his volatile but high-ceiling potential, while Keita Bates-Diop is expected to get the spot start in a nice matchup against Indiana. Klay Thompson is another great option here due to his recent resurgence in form, and Donte DiVincenzo is a reliable mid-range option.

Moving on to power forward, Keita Bates-Diop is expected to get the start and has a nice matchup at home against Indiana. Jeremy Sochan is playing well and should see a nice boost with Johnson out. Draymond Green fills up the stat sheet and is playing at home against the Clippers, making him a solid choice. Pascal Siakam may be in an ugly position, but he’s always a good bet for 40+ fantasy points. Lastly, Kyle Kuzma still offers upside, even with Porzingis back in the lineup.

At center, Myles Turner is a chalk pick with a great matchup against the Spurs. Joel Embiid has an excellent matchup against the Mavs, who are weak against centers and on the glass. Zach Collins could see an uptick in points and rebounds with Johnson out, while Draymond Green is another solid option. Pascal Siakam is a good bet for 40+ fantasy points, and Kristaps Porzingis could have an edge on the perimeter against Poeltl if he’s rested. Finally, Charles Bassey and Kevon Looney are excellent GPP options who could rack up blocks, steals, and points quickly.
