3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 2/15/18

Jeff Teague, PG, Minnesota Timberwolves

DraftKings Salary: $6,200

Jeff Teague is always a risky option, but that type of variance is somewhat appealing on a two-game slate where you need some randomness to win. Unfortunately he has played very well recently, which may raise his ownership. He's topped 35 DraftKings points in three of his past four games -- and that type of upside is definitely accessible tonight against Isaiah Thomas and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Los Angeles already ranked 28th in points allowed per game and somehow found a way to make their defense even worse by acquiring the league's worst defender, who should be matched up with Teague for a good portion of his minutes today. With his Minnesota Timberwolves carrying an implied team total (118.25 points) that is 10 points higher than any other team's, Teague has a good chance of reaching the ceiling he has displayed recently.

The floor is scary, but Teague's ceiling is similar to players who are priced a full $1,000 above him, making him an intriguing salary-saving option in tournaments.
