DraftKings will be running it’s popular King of the Court promo on tonight’s four-game NBA slate. Users who opt have the chance to split $1 million in bonus bets by placing a player prop bet on the DraftKings Sportsbook on the player who ultimately leads that night in total points, rebounds and assists.
Seems simple enough, right? Why wouldn’t you just place a bet and use your token on the highest usage option on that slate and call it a day? Well, the bonus bet split is smaller depending on how popular the player is with the betting public, so there could be some value in taking a contrarian approach. That means no Kawhi Leonard, Victor Wembanyama or Cooper Flagg picks in this article.
With that in mind, here are a couple under the radar King of the Court picks for Tuesday night’s basketball action.
King of the Court Value Picks
Dillon Brooks, Phoenix Suns
Dillon Brooks is in an interesting spot on this slate. While he’s certainly less of a contrarian pick than he was three weeks ago in King of the Court — dropping 40 points against the Pistons will up your notoriety — the wing still lacks the star power of a lot of the names taking the floor on Tuesday night. The Suns also got Devin Booker back on Saturday, with the All-Star logging 32.1 minutes after a seven-game injury absence. However, Brooks sort of remained Phoenix’s No. 1 option on offense, finishing the contest with a team-high in points (28), field goal attempts (23) and usage rate (30.0%). He’ll need to do more in the secondary statistics, but anyone capable of scoring at that level is worth a look in KOTC. This is also, arguably, the best matchup of the evening. Over its last five games, Dallas is conceding 120.7 points per 100 possessions and is operating at the league’s fifth-fastest pace (102.4). That’s a perfect recipe for counting stats.
Associated Prop Bet: Dillon Brooks 21+ Points (-105)
Karl-Anthony Towns, New York Knicks
Could the real Karl-Anthony Towns please stand up? The Knicks are in a great place at the moment, drubbing the Celtics on Sunday for their ninth win in their past 10 contests. However, things have been a little off for Towns in recent weeks. Once heralded as one of the most gifted scorers in the NBA, Towns has only managed to exceed 20 points once in his last eight starts — and that game needed to go to double-OT. The saving grace? KAT has been an animal on the glass in 2025-26, leading the league in rebounds per contest (11.9). In fact, Towns has grabbed 20 or more rebounds three times in his last 12 games, including a season-high 22 boards versus the Raptors back on January 28. If he could combine that interior dominance with a decent scoring performance, Towns would suddenly have a clear path to leading this small slate in PRA. Maybe tonight is the night, given that the Pacers rank in the bottom 10 in defensive rating (116.2) and the top 10 in pace (101.6).
Associated Prop Bet: Karl-Anthony Towns 13+ Rebounds (-138)
