The NBA slate features three games on Tuesday which includes an MVP showdown between Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid as the Nuggets and Sixers face off to kick off the night. This slate also includes the Kings against the Suns and finishes with the Thunder against the Clippers.

When it comes to top Underdog Fantasy NBA Pick'em plays we certainly have plenty of options to choose from when it comes to building our entries this evening!

 

Top Underdog Fantasy NBA Pick'em Plays

Bradley Beal, PG Phoenix Suns

Beal has started to figure out how to play within the Suns offense with Devin Booker and Kevin Durant which has resulted in some big efforts during the month of January. In fact,  Beal has scored at least 21 points in five of the seven games since we turned the calendar to 2024. Tonight he has a matchup against the Kings in a game with a 242.5 game total which should be played at a nice pace. We are going to continue to ride Beal's scoring streak here this evening in this matchup.

Pick: Higher 20.5 Points Score

Josh Giddey, SG Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder's usage of Josh Giddey is one of the more frusterating things in the NBA. He is a uber talented player that has some defensive flaws but fills out the box score when he is on the floor. Yesterday we saw Giddey play just 21 minutes as the Thunder were on the front end of a back-to-back. If you look over the game logs this season you will see that in the majority of the team's back-to-backs this season Giddey was limited in the first game and played more minutes in the second game. That's what we are looking for here tonight against the Clippers. I'm hopeful we get somewhere in the range of 25-to-30 minutes from Giddey this evening because his projection for assists+rebounds feels too low. 

Pick: Higher 10.5 Rebounds + Assists
