FanDuel
Danuel House , SF HOU ($4,700)
With Victor Oladipo and P.J. Tucker doubtful and Eric Gordon a game-time decision, House should approach and likely surpass 30 minutes once again. House did a little of everything last time out but was one of the Rockets leading scorers pouring in 17 actual points. House’s versatility to play multiple positions will lead to plenty of run considering the Rockets are missing guys at all spots on the floor.
Jarred Vanderbilt , PF MIN ($4,400)
We’re being handed Vanderbilt on a silver platter...again. He’s only 4.4K on FanDuel and he continues to start and continues to be productive as well. He’s played 23+ minutes in two straight and has topped 26 FP in each of those games. He grabbed 13 boards last time out and oh by the way, Karl-Anthony Towns is active! With the current starting lineup Minnesota is running out there, Vandy is averaging a solid .95 FP/min average.
Robert Williams , C BOS ($3,600)
I think this will be a fairly popular approach considering Daniel Theis is sitting again in this contest. He only played 20 minutes and he’s unlikely to notch five steals again, but Williams is not a stranger to notching multiple steals and blocks in his short stints. He likely plays a similar workload and that’s fine at his price because of what he brings to the table. Would limit exposure to tournaments only, however.
DraftKings
Delon Wright , PG DET ($6,000)
Am I missing something? Why is Wright priced at 6K on DK? He’s 7K on FD and that seems just right, so attack this price point. Wright has put up 32+ DKP in five-of-six and has topped 40 FP in 3-of-5. The match-up against the Bulls is very good as they rank 21st in DRtg and get a MASSIVE pace bump as CHI is 3rd and DET ranks 27th in pace. Wright is as elite of a tournament play at this price as there is on the slate.
JaMychal Green , DEN PF ($4,700)
Scared money don’t make no money is how the phrase in the song goes. Green let us down big time on Tuesday, but Paul Millsap has already been ruled out and we should see Green in the starting lineup once again here. The kicker is that he’s drawing a match-up against Washington, one of the best anyone could possibly have. Washington is 25th in DRtg and 18th in DvP against power-forwards this season. Green is probably best suited for tournaments, but an alley I’d explore because we have to have a short memory in DFS.
Garrett Temple , SG CHI ($4,400)
The Bulls continue to start Temple at SF and it’s been a great relationship as Temple is playing fantastic basketball. He’s coming off a game in which he played 38 minutes and put up 29.5 DKP. He’s surpassed 30+ minutes in three straight outings and has put up 20+ DKP and 26+ in two-of-three. DET is the 22nd ranked team in the NBA in terms of defensive rating, so advantage Temple. I’d consider him a play I’d use in all formats.
