Elite Players
Guards
Darius Garland, Cavaliers ($8,300) vs. Pistons
Garland is on a roll, averaging 24.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, 8.4 assists and 1.7 steals through 10 games, including seven with at least 40 DK points and a high of 63. He has a great chance to keep up the production against the Pistons, who give up the league's third-most points per game to point guards.
Jordan Poole, Warriors ($7,100) at Trail Blazers
Poole is averaging 18.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals over the last 10 games, including six with at least 35 DK points and a high of 46 in the most recent outing. He will continue to see an extended role in the absence of Stephen Curry, and he also has a good chance to prosper against the Trail Blazers, who allow opponents to shoot an average of 48.2 percent from the field.
Forwards/Centers
Lauri Markkanen, Jazz ($9,300) vs. Timberwolves
Markkanen topped 50 DK points in four of his last 10 outings, while averaging 25.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game. He missed the last two matchups with the Timberwolves but generated 51.8 DK points in their first meeting of the season. He should be up for another strong performance, as the Timberwolves give up the league's sixth-most points per game to small forwards.
Jimmy Butler, Heat ($8,100) vs. Pacers
Butler surpassed 39 DK points in four of five outings, while averaging 24.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.2 steals per game. He has a good chance to shine again with a favorable matchup against the Pacers, who give up the league's sixth-most turnovers and the sixth-most free throws per game.
Kristaps Porzingis, Wizards ($9,600) vs. Hornets
Porzingis surpassed 50 DK points in three of four outings, while averaging 26.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.3 blocks since returning from a three-game absence. He has an opportunity to flourish in an advantageous matchup against the Hornets, who give up the league's second-most rebounds per game and also the second-most points per game to power forwards.
Expected Chalk
Damian Lillard, Trail Blazers ($10,700) vs. Warriors
Lillard continues to dominate, averaging 35.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 7.6 assists across 10 games, including six with more than 50 DK points and a high of 89.3. He should thrive against the Warriors, who give up the league's fifth-most three-pointers per game and also the league's second-most points per game to point guards.
Value Picks
Kelly Olynyk, Jazz ($4,700) vs. Timberwolves
Olynyk topped 22 DK points in back-to-back games and should be able to make an impact against the Timberwolves, who remain shorthanded in the frontcourt. The Timberwolves also give up the league's fifth-most offensive rebounds per game.
Chris Boucher, Raptors ($4,400) vs. Spurs
Boucher is averaging 10.2 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.0 blocks over his last 10 appearances, including seven with more than 20 DK points and a high of 33.5 in the last game. He has a good chance to fill it up against the Spurs, who give up a league-high 122.6 points per game.
Caleb Martin, Heat ($4,800) vs. Pacers
Martin is averaging 9.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 10 games, including two with more than 32 DK points. He should find opportunity to pad his stats against the Pacers, who give up the league's second-most offensive rebounds per game and who allow opponents to shoot an average of 37.2 percent from deep.
Alec Burks, Pistons ($4,600) at Cavaliers
Burks is coming off a quiet outing, but is averaging 12.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists over six consecutive starts. He faces a tough matchup against the Cavs' backcourt but is likely to get his shot going from long range, as the Cavs allow opponents to shoot an average of 36.7 percent from deep.
Delon Wright, Wizards ($4,400) vs. Hornets
Wright continues to deliver a reliable effort off the bench, averaging 6.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.8 steals through 10 games, including a high of 38.3 DK points. He faces a favorable matchup against the Hornets, who give up the league's fourth-most points per game and allow opponents to shoot an average of 48.1 percent from the field.
