There is a unique NBA fantasy slate today, with both a Game 1 and a Game 7. There is a series wrapping up in the Eastern Conference, while the Western Conference Finals begins with each team missing their best player. Gamers can use the Awesemo Boom vs. Bust Tool and NBA fantasy projections to help navigate the range of outcomes for daily fantasy basketball today. The following are some of the best DFS NBA picks today on DraftKings and FanDuel based on their probabilities of booming or busting.
Boom/Bust NBA Fantasy Projections | June 20
NBA DraftKings + FanDuel Boom CandidatesÂ
Cameron Payne vs. Clippers: $4,000/$5,000
81.9% DraftKings Boom/60.9% FanDuel Boom
The Suns enter this game without Chris Paul, who tested positive for COVID. This thrusts Cameron Payne into the starting lineup. He has averaged roughly a fantasy point per minute this season, and Awesemo projects him for 31.25 minutes today. Payne is a cheap, pain-free way to start lineup construction for both cash and GPP lineups today.
Devin Booker vs. Clippers: $8,900/$7,900
45.0% DraftKings Boom/51.9% FanDuel Boom
Again, no Paul impacts the Suns’ lineup quite a bit. With Paul off the floor this season, Devin Booker has seen a 2.1% usage bump, bringing him to a dominating 34.8%. Along with having the ball more, Booker scores more and dishes more assists with Paul off the floor. Again, Booker is another smart play that doesn’t break the bank today.

Paul George vs. Suns: $10,300/$10,600
50.0% DraftKings Boom/32.4% FanDuel Boom
On the other side of the game, Paul George will be playing without Kawhi Leonard for at least the first two games of this series. Due to leading in the game, George’s stats remained relatively unaffected by playing without Leonard in the past two games. However, facing a tougher team in the Suns, George will likely throw up more shots while trailing. We have also seen George achieve a double-double or flirt with one most games of this playoffs, as he has averaged 9.2 rebounds this postseason. He is a high-ceiling, high-floor option today.
NBA DraftKings + FanDuel Bust Candidates
Danilo Gallinari vs. 76ers: $4,700/$5,500
61.4% DraftKings Bust/82.6% FanDuel Bust
Danilo Gallinari has hit some big shots during this playoffs. However, he has not offered his team much more than shooting on a consistent basis. At his current price, Gallinari has been a bust in five of his last seven games, including three of his past four. Could he blow up beyond the arc and shoot the lights out? Sure, but it would take a big performance for him to even hit value.
