3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 1/12/18

Jamal Murray, PG/SG, Denver Nuggets

DraftKings Salary: $5,800

Jamal Murray has been killing it lately, averaging 34.9 DraftKings points since Christmas. His price dropped $700 since his most recent game, perhaps in anticipation of this pace-down game against the Memphis Grizzlies. At this salary, Murray needs just 29 DraftKings points, a feat that should be quite attainable with Gary Harris out of the lineup.

No player has seen a larger boost without Harris than Murray. His usage jumps from 25.7% to 30.0%, while his DraftKings points per minute has climbed from 0.90 to 1.00 on the dot without Harris. He's averaged 37.8 minutes in his past four games, so if he is able to maintain that DraftKings points per minute rate, he could easily crush value in this one. He's borderline cash game viable with Harris out and is one of the strongest tournament plays of the entire slate at this price tag.
