DRAFTKINGS
Grayson Allen , SG/SF MEM ($4,700)
Allen has been playing more minutes and getting starts with the Grizzlies missing De'Antony Melton and Desmond Bane. Allen has played at least 30 minutes in the last three games and has 29.75, 33.75 and 22.5 DK points. He has taken 33 shots from the field in those games. Allen gets a great matchup against the Pelicans, who rank 27th in defensive efficiency and have allowed at least 123 points in three straight games. The Pelicans are third-worst in three-point percentage, allowing opponents to shoot 39 percent. Allen has shot 13-for-25 from three-point range the last three games.
DeAndre Jordan , C BRK ($4,500)
Jordan didn't start last night against the Kings, but played 27 minutes and had 10 points, eight rebounds and four assists for 25.5 DK points. Jordan could get the start tonight with Deandre Ayton on the other side for the Suns. Jordan has at least 21 DK points in five straight games.
Anfernee Simons , PG POR ($4,000)
Over the last five games, Simons is averaging12.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.8 assists for 20.2 DK points. He has hit at least three three-pointers in four of the last five games. These teams played on Jan. 25 and the Thunder won, 125-122. Simons had 26 points and shot 10-for-17 from the field in that game.
FANDUEL
Justin Jackson , SF OKC ($5,300)
The Thunder have been short-handed and will be again as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander , George Hill and Theo Maledon are all out. Jackson got the start on Sunday and played a season-high 33 minutes and had 22 points, five assists, three rebounds and one steal for 35.1 FD points. The prior game, he played 27 minutes and had 20 points, three rebounds, three assists and two steals for 32.1 FD points. Portland allows 115.2 points per game and are second-worst in defensive efficiency.
Talen Horton-Tucker SG LAL ($4,300)
Tucker will get more minutes with Anthony Davis out. With Davis out for the second half in the last game against Denver, Tucker played 24 minutes and had 10 points, five assists and one block for 18.5 FD points. The most minutes he played came on Feb. 8 when he had eight points, five rebounds, two blocks, two steals and one assist for 25.5 FD points. He gets a Minnesota team that allows 115.7 points per game and ranks 23rd in defensive efficiency.
Kira Lewis, PG NO ($3,800)
Lewis is starting to get more playing time. He has played at least 16 minutes in the last five games. While the playing time isn't ideal, he's been productive when on the floor. He played 16 minutes on Sunday against the Pistons and had 10 points, four steals and two assists for 24 FD points. On Feb. 10 against the Bulls, Lewis had 14 points, four assists, two rebounds, and two steals for 28.4 FD points. Between those games, he had 6.4 FD points, so there's risk. He's only a GPP play but against the Grizzlies with a total of 231 points, he can go up 7-8 times his salary.
