The 2025 NBA Playoffs continue on Tuesday with the Indiana Pacers trying to shock the Cleveland Cavaliers again in a 7 p.m. ET start, followed by the Golden State Warriors vs. Minnesota Timerwolves in Game 1 of their series at 9:30 p.m. ET. Despite a smaller NBA DFS player pool, there are several high-quality options like Pascal Siakam, Evan Mobley, Julius Randle, Stephen Curry and Anthony Edwards for daily Fantasy basketball players to consider for NBA DFS picks. Big-name players like that also come with big-time price tags which forces you to pair them with more affordable options. Ty Jerome is averaging 17.2 points, 5.4 assists and 3.4 rebounds in the postseason, so should he be low-cost, high-reward part of your NBA DFS strategy?
Before setting your NBA DFS strategy on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Tuesday, May 6, you need to see what Mike McClure has to say.

On Monday, McClure identified Thunder guard Lu Dort as an under-the-radar option as one of his top NBA DFS picks on both sites. The result: Dort had 14 points, two rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block, returning 23.5 points on DraftKings and 22.9 points on FanDuel to provide strong value for NBA DFS lineups. Anybody who included him in their lineups could have been well on the way to a profitable day!
For Tuesday, one of McClure's top NBA DFS picks is Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards, who is listed at $9,400 on DraftKings and $9,600 on FanDuel. Another part of McClure's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes Pacers center Myles Turner ($6,200 on both DraftKings and FanDuel). Turner filled the stat sheet with 13 points, 11 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three steals in Game 1 against Cleveland. The 29-year-old averaged 16.8 points and 4.8 rebounds against the Bucks last series. His ability to score NBA DFS points defensively provides a nice boost, as Turner averaged 2.2 blocks per game against the Bucks last round.
McClure is also targeting a player who could go off for massive numbers on Tuesday! This pick could be the difference between winning your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing. You absolutely need to see who it is before locking in any lineups.
