3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 3/26/19

John Collins, PF/C, Atlanta Hawks

DraftKings Price: $7,300

If you are paying up for a Harden or Towns, you can't afford to go with many others above $8,000, unless you are going completely stars and scrubs for a tournament. For a more balanced lineup in either format, Atlanta Hawks big man John Collins offers the bang of an $8K guy at a discounted cost.

Because of his recent performances, Collins has seen his price fall by $300 over the last two weeks. In his last four, the sophomore has averaged a subpar 29.75 DraftKings points, though that comes on 27 minutes a game. The reason? Collins has fouled out twice in that span, thereby limiting him to 27 and 20 minutes, respectively.

Collins' last game (33.75 DraftKings points) wasn't all that great, but tonight's script couldn't be much better. On the road against the New Orleans Pelicans, his Hawks are one-point underdogs but with a 119.5 total, while the 240 over/under checks in atop the slate by 6.5 points.

The Pels are also fifth-worst against the power forward spot, which bodes well for Collins' bounce-back potential. At this price, our models have him down for 40.1 DraftKings points at a value of 5.49 points per $1,000.
