It's Tuesday in the NBA which means the fan-favorite King of the Court promotion is back at DraftKings Sportsbook on February 3, giving fans a chance to turn smart NBA player prop bets into a share of $1 million in Bonus Bets.

To compete for the jackpot, simply opt in to the DraftKings promo to claim your King of the Court token. If your chosen player leads all others in Points + Rebounds + Assists (PRA) for the night, you’ll take home a share of $1 million in Bonus Bets — even if your original prop doesn’t cash.

 

With the help of the Dimers Pro NBA Projections Hub, you can instantly identify which players have the best shot to dominate the stat sheet. Whether you’re backing weekly favorites like Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, or turning to a darkhorse contender, you’ll have real-time analytics and NBA projections to support every pick.

The Dimers' projections have been particularly useful for this promo so far. We nailed the picks two weeks in a row, correctly identifying both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Tyrese Maxey as top targets who split the prize pool, and then identifying Josh Giddey as the top longshot play for a $94 bet. Our best night so far came when the top four PRA totals of the night were all featured in our targets.

DraftKings "King of the Court" offers a $1 Million Jackpot.

King of the Court Picks Today, Tuesday, February 3

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: 49.6 PRA

Surprise, it's Luka Doncic at the top!

He's won the crown four times this season, with his most recent win returning his highest bonus bet total of $41, with his lowest return at $25. He's high upside in PRA, low upside in bonus bets.

Doncic gets the Nets on Tuesday, who have a bottom-five defensive rating in the NBA this season, but haven't allowed the monster performances that come with winning King of the Court lately, save for a 49-PRA outing by Jaylen Brown in overtime.

Other than that outing, no single player has dominated this team and vs. guards, they rank 7th defensively in points and assists and 3rd in rebounds.

Luka is a special player and is a weekly threat to win the promo, but recent performances suggest he may not hit his ceiling tonight.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Thunder) | Projected: 42.9 PRA

Despite the 2nd-highest points per game in the NBA, SGA has not worn the King of the Court crown this season.

He can score 40 seemingly any night, but his complementary upside lies in assists rather than rebounds, which means he cannibalizes his own ceiling as he can't get an assist if he's scoring on the play, and for some reason, his biggest performances just don't come on Tuesdays.

In his past 6 games, he's recorded 58, 55 and 52 PRA, both totals that would contend, but on the wrong night.

The Thunder draw the Magic on Tuesday night, with SGA listed as questionable. If he suits up, he'll face a Magic team that ranks middle of the pack in each category vs. guards over their last 10 games.

Donovan Mitchell managed 50 and 53 PRA in back-to-back games vs. the Magic last week, setting up Shai for his potential first crown of the year.

Jalen Johnson (Hawks) | Projected: 42.8 PRA

Ranking third in our PRA projections is the Hawks' Jalen Johnson, fresh off his first triple double since January 1.

We called out his triple double odds on Saturday thanks to a favorable matchup, which isn't quite the case tonight, but his all-around contributions give him a high floor.

His numbers took a slight dip in January, notably his scoring, averaging 21.3 points per game, recording under 20 eight times. His rebounding saw some of his highest games and lowest of the season, just more volatility all around for him after one of the best stretches of his career.

The Heat are about middle of the pack against Forwards in each category, and Johnson recorded 24 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists in their previous meeting.

 

Dimers' Longshot Targets

Paolo Banchero (Magic) | Projected: 38.5 PRA

For our first longshot play, we're looking at that Thunder-Magic matchup but from the other side.

Paolo Banchero lands 8th overall in our projections, right below a double double at 9.3 rebounds, which is where he could shine tonight.

The Thunder have struggle defensively in one of their tougher stretches of the season and they've allowed the second-most rebounds per game over their past 10.

Banchero has two 30-point double doubles in his past five games, and has led the team in two or more categories in four of those, with his all-around contributions giving him the most upside in this game, particularly with Franz Wagner out.

Karl-Anthony Towns (Knicks) | Projected: 37.2 PRA

The final player on our radar tonight is the highest-projected player in Knicks vs. Wizards, Karl-Anthony Towns.

KAT is in a rough scoring stretch. After averaging 20.6 points per game in November and December, he's down to just over 15 per game since.

He has elevated his rebounding ceiling, however, recording three games with 20+ boards in December.

Tonight, he faces a Wizards team that ranks bottom-five in PTS, REB and AST to opposing Centers over their past 15 games, and Towns recorded 33, 13 and 5 vs. the Wizards earlier this season.
