With only two games on this slate, making DFS NBA picks and lineups may be trickier than earlier in the season. So, if looking for a different way to play NBA fantasy contests during the NBA playoffs, PrizePicks could be a site that interests you. Instead of building lineups of players, at PrizePicks you are making predictions on player stats or fantasy points, with more correct predictions meaning higher payouts.
PrizePicks provides a big list of stats and fantasy points, and you are able to pick and choose which you want to make a prediction for. Stringing together a few picks can pay out up to 10 times your entry fee. You are even able to combine picks across different sports. The only rule is you must make picks for players on at least two different teams.
For the sake of this article, we will take you through four of the best NBA fantasy PrizePicks predictions to make for the NBA Playoffs Round 2 games today.
PrizePicks NBA Fantasy | Playoffs Round 2
It is important to note that, much like odds that update throughout the day, the player totals at PrizePicks are subject to change. So if you like these NBA picks below, it’s wise to jump on them quickly.
Tobias Harris: Over 38.5 NBA Fantasy Points
PrizePicks uses the same NBA fantasy scoring format as FanDuel, so gamers can base picks off of that. With that in mind, Harris has gone under 38.5 fantasy points just once in his last six games. It was actually last game, which the 76ers were in full control of, and he ended up scoring 38.1. Assuming this game is a bit more competitive, Harris should be more aggressive and perform better for fantasy. It wouldn’t take much more for him to go over this total.
Royce O’Neale: Over 23.0 NBA Fantasy Points
O’Neale has been one of the more underrated performers for fantasy this postseason. He has scored over 23 fantasy points in six of his last seven games, and in five of those he was above 26 points. O’Neale continues to rack up rebounds and steals while also knocking down open 3’s and dishing a couple assists. His performances have been consistent, and there is little reason to think he cannot continue it today.

Matisse Thybulle: Over 12.5 NBA Fantasy Points
The 76ers lost Danny Green last game, so Matisse Thybulle could be in for a larger role. He played only 17 minutes, but that is only because he fouled out. As long as the rest of the 76ers are scoring, he should soak up minutes for his defense. Despite the limited minutes last game, he still scored 14.2 NBA fantasy points, so more minutes could mean a nice overall performance. According to the Awesemo DFS NBA projections, he’s projected for 15.44 points tonight.
Reggie Jackson: Over 2.5 Made 3’s
The confidence of Reggie Jackson appears to be at an all-time high this postseason, as he has been one of the most important offensive contributors for this team. Much of his damage has been from downtown, as he has hit at least three shots from 3-point range in each of his last nine games. This includes a combined nine shots from long range over the past two games. He is taking pressure off of Paul George with his outside shooting, and the Clippers should continue to ask Jackson to fill this role today. In the Awesemo DFS NBA projections, Jackson is coming in a shade over two made 3-pointers, but with how he is playing a lot of the perimeter in this series, the over 2.5 still seems solid.
