Just 20 games into his Knicks tenure, Kemba Walker has been demoted from both the starting lineup and the rotation in favor of Alec Burks. The move comes amidst The Bronx native averaging career-lows of 11.7 points and 3.1 assists per game. Burks isn’t a point guard so that means the Knicks offense may run through Julius Randle even more so and take advantage of his playmaking skills. Randle is averaging almost five fewer points than last season, but perhaps having the ball more in his hands will increase his NBA DFS value.
But what other Knicks could benefit from this change and produce more for NBA DFS lineups? Maybe players like Evan Fournier and Immanuel Quickley will also become bigger parts of the offense and have increases in volume. The Knicks face the Nets on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. ET so they’ll get a high-profile game to showcase their new rotation. So, before finalizing your NBA DFS picks for Tuesday, be sure to check out the NBA DFS advice, player rankings, stacks and top daily Fantasy basketball picks from SportsLine’s Mike McClure.
McClure is a DFS professional with nearly $2 million in career winnings. He’s also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every minute of every game 10,000 times, taking factors like matchups, statistical trends and injuries into account.

On Monday, McClure listed Rockets PF/C Christian Wood as one of his top NBA DFS picks on FanDuel and DraftKings. The result: Wood had 24 points, a career-high of 21 rebounds and three blocks to return over 7x value on DraftKings and 8x value on FanDuel. Anybody that included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable day.
Now, McClure has turned his attention to the Tuesday, November 30 NBA DFS slate and locked in his top daily Fantasy basketball picks. You can only see them by heading to SportsLine.
Top NBA DFS picks for Tuesday, November 30
One of McClure’s top NBA DFS picks for Tuesday includes Grizzlies guard Tyus Jones ($4,600 on FanDuel and $5,200 on DraftKings). Jones got his first start of the season on Sunday and will continue to start in Ja Morant’s (knee) absence. Jones has scored in double-figures three times off the bench this year, but two of those have come in the last five games.
Jones had six points, eight assists and three rebounds in less than 24 minutes of action on Sunday as Memphis blew out Sacramento. A more competitive game tonight at Toronto should allow him to play more minutes and put up more stats. For the season, Jones is shooting 49 percent from the field and 46 percent on 3PAs, making this the most efficient season of his seven-year career. He should get lots of opportunities to show off his shooting touch vs. the Raptors, so you can see why McClure is high on Jones.
Another part of McClure’s optimal NBA DFS strategy includes Knicks guard Derrick Rose at $4,300 on DraftKings and $4,600 on FanDuel. Rose is listed as questionable with a sprained ankle after missing the last three games. But he will be eager to get onto the floor with more minutes available following Walker’s demotion.
The former MVP has been one of the league’s best Sixth Men over the last few years and is averaging 12.0 points, 3.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds this season. He’s been the Knicks’ best offensive player as his offensive box plus/minus of +2.8 is by far the best on the team. He’s also torched the Nets throughout his career and has scored at least 20 points against them in six out of the last seven times he’s faced Brooklyn. If Rose suits up, he’s a steal at his listed prices and a must-start for NBA DFS lineups.
