NBA Sleeper Picks Player Predictions (3/28/25)
Regular season record: 210-64
Kevin Durant (F – PHX): OVER 19.5 points (alt line)
The Phoenix Suns continue to battle for the final play-in berth, but the Dallas Mavericks welcoming Anthony Davis back into the fold despite a lost season has complicated matters. Phoenix has struggled all season but was riding a four game win streak prior to the loss to Boston. For his part, KD has been on fire from deep in March, hitting 3.4 per contest at a .524 clip. Durant has scored 20 or more points in 14 of his 19 games since the all-star break and should come into tonight's contest ready to roll against Anthony Edwards, as the young star is sure to challenge the future Hall of Famer on both ends of the court. KD dropped 33 and 26 points in his two contests against Minnesota this season. Dap the More on Durant for Friday night basketball.
Anthony Edwards (G – MIN): OVER 19.5 points (alt line)
Ant-Man always gets up for matchups against his G.O.A.T. in Kevin Durant, and tonight should be no different. Ant has scored 25 or more points in eight of his last 12 games and should hit the 20 points required for this alt line with relative ease. Edwards dropped 24, 33, and 44 points on Phoenix in his three games against them this season. Light up the More on Ant-Man for Friday night at Sleeper Picks.
Donovan Mitchell (G – CLE): OVER 3.5 assists (alt line)
Donovan returned from his one game layoff with a vengeance on Thursday night, lighting up the Spurs for 25 points, eight rebounds, 14 assists, one steal, and one block. Mitchell is sliding into playoff mode and has the Cavaliers ready to make a deep run in the playoffs. Donovan has dished out four or more assists in 12 of his last 14 and 22 of his last 26 games overall. Mash the More on Mitchell for Friday night's NBA action.
Writers note: The lines are constantly changing on Sleeper (and sometimes expiring), so there is a high probability that one or all of the numbers may no longer be the same when you open your app. There are excellent values when they are first posted, with the only catch being that they are not all released at the same time. Vigilance could provide a solid return on investment this season, literally.
