King of the Court Picks Today, Tuesday, January 13

Each week, we'll highlight some of Dimers' top-projected players, as well as some longshots as a sample of what users can find in the Dimers Pro NBA Projections Hub.

By showcasing a combination of top performances and some darkhorse candidates, bettors will find a mix of players to choose from.

Dimers' Highest-Projected PRA Totals

Luka Doncic (Lakers) | Projected: 51.7 PRA

Leading all of today's players in total PRA is once Luka Doncic as the only player projected for at least 50 PRA on Tuesday night.

Doncic is the NBA's leading scorer, ranks 4th in assists and 24th in rebounds - so far in January he has recorded 58, 57, and 53 PRA through six games.

As one of the league's premier superstars, he's largely matchup-proof and is more likely to see his production affected by a blowout rather than a poor night.

He's listed as a game-time decision vs. the Hawks, who rank 23rd in opponent points, 26th in rebounds and 25th in assists.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (Bucks) | Projected: 45.8 PRA

Ranking second overall in today's projections is Giannis Antetokounmpo when the Bucks face the Timberwolves in a key game for Milwaukee as they try to crack the Top 10 seeds in the East.

Giannis previously won King of the Court in a split-tie with Tyrese Maxey earlier this season and has reached the 50 PRA threshold six other times since.

His King of the Court upside primarily lies around 35+ points and 10-12 rebounds, which on its own is unlikely to be enough to wear the crown unless he turns in both a 40-point outing and 15+ rebounds, meaning he'll need to have one of his better nights with assists to push for upside.

Minnesota ranks 10th on the season yet 27th in the NBA as far as opponent assist over their past seven games, opening up a chance for Giannis to stuff the stat sheet.

Jalen Johnson (Hawks) | Projected: 42.5 PRA

Rounding out today's top three PRA totals is Jalen Johnson of the Hawks, who now firmly sits as the uncontested No. 1 option with Trae Young gone.

He already made that case this season, after a December run that saw him put up the best numbers of his career across the board, averaging around 48 PRA per game.

Johnson has cooled off somewhat, recording just one double or triple-double in his first six games of 2026 as the Hawks find more balanced contributions, and he may feature more as a scorer tonight - the Lakers have allowed the most points to forwards over their past seven games, but one of the best at limiting rebounds, a key stat in Johnson's biggest games.

Dimers' Longshot Targets

Jamal Murray (Nuggets) | Projected: 37.8 PRA

The first "longshot" play we'll look at is Jamal Murray of the Nuggets, with the seventh-highest projection in our data at 37.8 PRA.

Murray is listed as a game-time decision, so his status is worth monitoring before locking in your pick for King of the Court, but could be in line for a big night if he plays.

In the past two weeks, Murray has had some of his best games of the season, hitting five double doubles , all with assists, after averaging just 7.1 assists per game all season. That's resulted in PRA totals of 52, 49 and 47, and he record 52 points and 62 PRA vs. the Pacers last month.

With Nikola Jokic sidelined and the Nuggets roster banged up, Murray is an even more important piece of this offense and he gets a top matchup with the Pelicans, whose defense ranks 29th in assists, 28th in points, and 24th in rebounds.

Alperun Sengun (Rockets) | Projected: 37.2 PRA

The final player we'll look at is Alperun Sengun of the Rockets who gets a great matchup with the soft Bulls defense on Tuesday night.

Sengun ranks 9th in our PRA projections at 37.2, highest in his game, just over Kevin Durant. Sengun has triple-double upside on a good night, only recording one this season (53 PRA), but regularly flashing 8 or 9 assists in his PTS/REB double-double performances.

Chicago ranks 5th in points and 7th in rebounds allowed to Centers this season with an overall bottom-5 scoring defense, boding well for Sengun's assist upside - his 6.0 projected by the Dimers model is the highest mark for a center tonight.
