| Dejounte Murray | SAS | A | BKN | 22 | 7.8 | 71% | 0.4 | 4.1 | 0.8 | 1.1 | 0.2 | 0.1 | 0.9 | 49% | 26.23% | 6.6 | 7.2 | 6.6 | 6.7 | $3800 | $4100 | $3000 |

| Patrick Beverley | HOU | A | MIL | 33 | 30.8 | 78% | 1.6 | 9.4 | 6.2 | 4.3 | 1.6 | 0.5 | 1.4 | 44% | 13.6% | 25.9 | 27.7 | 26.2 | 26.7 | $5600 | $5200 | $4800 |
| John Wall | WAS | A | CHA | 41 | 36.3 | 82% | 1.1 | 23 | 4.5 | 10.2 | 2.2 | 0.5 | 4.2 | 46% | 30.51% | 45 | 47.9 | 45.3 | 45.6 | $9700 | $9300 | $6600 |
John Wall’s price has climbed into the mid 10,000’s before and the fact that he’s only $9,300 in a great spot is a great sign. There are plenty of value options today, so fitting Wall and Kawhi Leonard into the same lineup is doable.
Dejounte Murray predictably saw his minutes drop in his last start against the Cavs. Pop typically holds the reins tight on his rookies and with a tough matchup against the Cavs, it felt like a Patty Mills game. The Spurs play a Brooklyn team that has been destroyed in the backcourt and Murray is a great value play.
Russell Westbrook is just $11,500 and it’s the cheapest that we’ve seen him in over 15 games. He has an awful matchup with George Hill and the Jazz and they’re one of the slowest teams in the league in terms of pace. Westbrook will still shoot his normal 25-30 shots in this game and while his efficiency will take a hit, he should still hit value with the chance to crush it.
On the other side of the ball, it’s tough not to like Patrick Beverley. Sure, he’s been dealing with a nagging hand injury for weeks, but Beverley stuffs the stat sheet regardless of his health. He doesn’t have much upside with the Rockets nearing full strength, but he’s a relatively safe play at $5,200.

| Dion Waiters | MIA | H | GSW | 24 | 29.8 | 65% | 1.3 | 13.8 | 3.1 | 3.7 | 0.9 | 0.4 | 2 | 39% | 25.58% | 23.6 | 25.5 | 23.8 | 24.3 | $5500 | $5700 | $4450 |

Matthew Dellavedova was moved into the starting lineup against the Heat in his last game and he produced. Scoring 27 fantasy points through 36 minutes. He’s just $3,500 and is a great value play at the PG position against the Rockets. Beverley is a pest, but Delly should still hit value.
Dion Waiters stepped up in his last game with Tyler Johnson out with an injury. He dropped 33 actual points in his last contest and he’ll look to build on that again. He loses some appeal if Johnson suits up.

| Michael Kidd-Gilchrist | CHA | H | WAS | 43 | 29.8 | 76% | 0.0 | 9.1 | 7.5 | 1.4 | 0.8 | 1 | 0.8 | 45% | 14.65% | 22.9 | 23.7 | 23.3 | 22.9 | $5400 | $5400 | $4500 |
| Kawhi Leonard | SAS | A | BKN | 41 | 33.6 | 91% | 2.1 | 25.5 | 5.7 | 3.2 | 1.8 | 0.7 | 1.9 | 49% | 30.21% | 40.2 | 42.5 | 40.5 | 41.3 | $9800 | $9400 | $6600 |
Kawhi Leonard has scored 30-plus points in six straight games and he’ll look to make it seven against the Nets tonight. He’s been on fire since Pau Gasol and Tony Parker went down and there’s no reason to think that he’ll slow down in a great matchup.
Markieff Morris has been killing it lately and he’s looking good in a Wizards uniform. It took him more than half a season to find his groove, but he’s scored over 30 fantasy points in eight of his last nine games. He has a neutral matchup with the Hornets, but he’s still a decent play.
Jabari Parker was demoted to the bench after violating team rules, but he’s expected to re-enter the starting lineup against the Rockets. It’s a plus matchup for Parker with an ill Ryan Anderson returning to the lineup. He’s safe and has 45-50 point upside.
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist continues to play well and it’s odd that he’s still playing well. MKG has had good stretches in the past, but he always seems to flop sooner rather than later. He’s relatively safe due to his rebounding prowess, but I wouldn’t feel safe rostering him in cash.

| David Lee | SAS | A | BKN | 42 | 17.8 | 75% | 0.0 | 6.7 | 5.3 | 1.6 | 0.4 | 0.4 | 0.9 | 59% | 16.17% | 16.1 | 16.8 | 16.3 | 16.1 | $5100 | $5500 | $3500 |
| Draymond Green | GSW | A | MIA | 42 | 33.2 | 69% | 1.1 | 10.7 | 8.7 | 7.6 | 1.9 | 1.4 | 2.4 | 45% | 15.72% | 36.8 | 38.9 | 37.2 | 37.3 | $8200 | $8000 | $6200 |
| Markieff Morris | WAS | A | CHA | 42 | 31.7 | 80% | 0.8 | 13.6 | 6.5 | 1.8 | 1.2 | 0.6 | 1.9 | 44% | 20.7% | 25.8 | 27.4 | 26.1 | 26.2 | $6400 | $6300 | $4400 |
| Jabari Parker | MIL | H | HOU | 43 | 34.1 | 73% | 1.4 | 20.4 | 5.9 | 2.8 | 1 | 0.3 | 1.7 | 49% | 26% | 32.8 | 34.6 | 33.1 | 33.5 | $7400 | $6900 | $5300 |
David Lee remains one of, if not the best value on the slate. He’s facing a terrible Brooklyn team and a double-double is to be expected. The Nets are one of the worst teams against big men and Lee should hit value in this contest.
DeMarcus Cousins is arguably the top stud on the slate with price in mind as he’s just $10,500 with Rudy Gay out. He was in full take over mode in his last game out against the Bulls and we could see a similar style of play out of Cousins again in Detroit.
Draymond Green is coming off one of his worst games of the season and that should mean his ownership will suffer. He’s a very high floor play against the Heat and he’s worth a look in cash games.
If Marreese Speights earns the start, he’ll be one of the more interesting tournament options on the slate. Doc Rivers seems ready to give the veteran big man more run as the Clippers desperately fight to stay afloat in the West with injuries to Chris Paul and Blake Griffin. He’s a low-floor, high-upside guy.

| Hassan Whiteside | MIA | H | GSW | 40 | 33.6 | 56% | 0.0 | 17.3 | 14.2 | 0.7 | 0.8 | 2.1 | 2.1 | 56% | 22.93% | 39 | 40.8 | 39.7 | 39 | $8500 | $7700 | $6500 |
| Marreese Speights | LAC | A | ATL | 45 | 16.8 | 87% | 1.4 | 10.4 | 4.9 | 0.9 | 0.3 | 0.5 | 0.8 | 46% | 24.73% | 18.6 | 19.9 | 18.8 | 19.3 | $4500 | $4300 | $3300 |
| Clint Capela | HOU | A | MIL | 32 | 23.2 | 47% | 0.0 | 11.3 | 7.8 | 0.9 | 0.4 | 1.5 | 1.2 | 63% | 19.12% | 24.6 | 25.6 | 25 | 24.6 | $4800 | $4000 | $4400 |
| Rudy Gobert | UTA | H | OKC | 45 | 33.6 | 65% | 0.0 | 12.9 | 12.8 | 0.9 | 0.7 | 2.5 | 1.8 | 67% | 15.68% | 34.2 | 35.8 | 34.9 | 34.2 | $8100 | $7300 | $5700 |
Rudy Gobert’s double-digit rebound streak is still in tact and he’ll look to keep it going tonight. The Thunder have defended the center position quite well for most of the season, but with Steven Adams out of the lineup, they’ve lost some key interior defense. If Adams sits again, fire up Gobert.
Brook Lopez is rolling again and he’s a great GPP play despite a poor matchup. LaMarcus Aldridge gives up 1.1 FP/min so the matchup really isn’t as bad as it seems. Still, you can’t trust Brook in cash games.
Hassan Whiteside absolutely killed the Warriors in his last meeting as he dropped a 20-20 on their team. His ownership will likely be a bit higher than it should be for that reason, but his disgusting game log should keep it in check. Give him a look in tournaments as the Heat will need him to step up big time against the warriors.
Clint Capela is an interesting tournament play at $4,000. Even when healthy, D’Antoni would often hold Capela under 25 minutes despite playing well. Now coming off an injury, Capela is risky, but if he plays over 25 minutes, he will destroy value.
