NBA DFS Stacks, Values to Target for Thursday, February 20 Including Plays for Suns vs. Spurs on TNT

With a nine-game slate and a couple of potential high-scoring matchups, how are we attacking Thursday’s main slate?

Let's dive in and find out.

Game Stack Target - Memphis Grizzlies vs. Indiana Pacers

The Bulls versus Knicks matchup will definitely attract many eyes with the pace of play and a high point total, but don’t overlook Grizzlies vs. Pacers. The matchup has the highest point total of the slate at 249.5 with Memphis as a 1.5-point favorite. Oddschecker's AI-powered insights do favor the under at 247 with Memphis as a three-point, but it’s still the most promising target game of the slate.

Tyrese Halliburton, PG, $8,000

Halliburton has a slight dip in salary today at $8,000 and presents interesting value. His recent play has been a bit lackluster - hence the value - but this is an excellent matchup to get back to some of the stronger performances we saw back in January.

Myles Turner, C, $6,000

Turner is returning from injury and it’s been two weeks since we last saw him. He’s coming in a nice value at $6,000. On the other hand, Pascal Siakam is priced up a bit over his season average at $7,800, but still profiles as a strong play here.

Zach Edey, C, $4,700

Edey is a potentially strong value play at $4,700. He played just 11 minutes in Friday’s matchup against Charlotte, wildly disappointing at a much higher price point. He’s been underwhelming over the past several games, failing to exceed five points with low rebounds. This is a good bounce-back spot against a Pacers defense that has struggled with points in the paint. 

Ja Morant, PG, $8,500 & Desmond Bane, SG, $7,500

Both Morant and Bane are in play here as well at reasonable price points of $8,500 and $7,500 respectively.

Upside & Value with Phoenix Suns vs. San Antonio Spurs

Jeremy Sochan, C, $4,500

Sochan will likely see a role increase with Victor Wembanyama expected to miss the remainder of the season. Sochan is $4,500 on DraftKings. The Spurs are thin with existing injuries, we may see a very low-end option step up but avoid the uncertainty and stick with Sochan.

De’Aaron Fox, SG, $7,900

Fox should be a popular play here as well at should fit well into lineups at $7,900.

Kevin Durant, PF, $9,200

Durant is an interesting play. While his price point is at $9,200, coming off the break is a good spot to lean into him.

Tyus Jones, PG, $5,000

Jones is a good value contrarian play for $5,000 as a pivot from Devin Booker, who's once again missing action and out tonight.
