Here are our top picks for the NBA DFS slate for Wednesday, January 29, 2025, led by Oklahoma City Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

Health will remain the biggest factor for what happens to this team, both this year and the outlook for the next couple. The Sixers who are able to suit up though, are still giving it their all.

Philadelphia 76ers star Tyrese Maxey reacts to the overtime loss to the New York Knicks and gives an update on his injured hand.

Tyrese Maxey scored 43 points to lead a Philadelphia 76ers team without injured Joel Embiid and Paul George to a 118-104 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.

The Sixers beat the Cavaliers for their best win since defeating the Boston Celtics on Christmas Day. Cleveland, at 36-8, are tied with the Oklahoma City Thunder for the best record in basketball.

Joel Embiid has still only appeared in 13 games this season for the 76ers, but a case can be made to resist trade pitches for Yabusele and [Eric] Gordon if a second-half push for at least a Play-In Tournament spot is within reach.”

The 2025 NBA trade deadline is on the horizon. The Philadelphia 76ers will presumably be buyers, though they are not among the most eager teams to make a big splash. The Sixers prefer not to tank the remainder of this season, but their losing record will surely influence their approach before the deadline on Thursday, February 6.

The Portland Trail Blazers sophomore Toumani Camara has impressed various All-Stars and NBA veterans with his play.

Opponents paint a portrait of one of the NBA’s up-and-coming defenders so convincing that they are open about wanting him on their team.

But the team has been "fun-bad," thanks to solid play from two-time All-Star small forward/shooting guard LaVine, two-time All-Star center Nikola Vucevic, and guards Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu and Giddey. In the mediocre East, the Bulls are good enough to have at least a shot at the postseason.

There will be no Process 2.0 here, a half-season tank to ensure Philly retains its '25 first-round pick and lives to fight another season.

Paul George scored 30 points, Tyrese Maxey had 29 and the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 132-129 on Friday night to end a seven-game losing streak.
