3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 4/6/18
The Phoenix Suns
The other standout value situation is one that may go a bit overlooked because not much has changed (from an injury perspective) over the past week. The Phoenix Suns are set to again be without Devin Booker, T.J. Warren, Elfrid Payton, Alan Williams, and Troy Daniels, and their absences present an awesome opportunity as the Phoenix reserves play an uptempo home game against the New Orleans Pelicans tonight.
Tyler Ulis ($5,900) and Marquese Chriss ($5,800) stand out at the top, as both have been playing big minutes and putting up respectable fantasy performances. Ulis is averaging 35.8 DraftKings points in 36.3 minutes over the past five games and draws an awesome individual matchup against Rajon Rondo. Meanwhile, Chriss is averaging 32.0 DraftKings points in 29.1 minutes over his past five and he has been the stronger per-minute producer of the two on the year. However, he is a bit riskier of an option, as Alex Len just returned from injury, and Chriss could struggle to stay out of foul trouble while trying to defend Anthony Davis.
Speaking of Len ($5,100), he put up 38.25 DraftKings points in 32 minutes in his first game back and is definitely worth a look in tournaments at a price tag that requires just 25.5 DraftKings points of him. Danuel House Jr. is also an option at just $3,900. He has averaged 26.7 DraftKings points in 29.0 minutes over his past three games, and could easily exceed value given the matchup.
