Top DFS Picks (Worth the Investment)

Jeff Teague (ATL, PG) - $7,700

The chalk pick is of course Chris Paul, but he is the highest priced guard on the board and would limit your options in other positions.

Teague is certainly not the exciting choice, but is one of the steadiest point guards in the NBA. He has put up over 19 points in all but one game along with at least 5 assists in every contest thus far. Outside of one dud against San Antonio, the Hawks' point guard has over 30 fantasy points in 4-of-5 outings. For a much smaller price tag, you have a player who will give you 90 percent of the production of Paul while only costing 75 percent of his value.

 

Pau Gasol (CHI, PF) - $8,300

Gasol has clearly found Chicago to his liking this season, as he has averaged 36 fantasy points per game while not scoring less than 32 in any single contest. That incredible consistency makes him the top dollar-for-dollar play tonight, as the veteran big man is almost guaranteed to have a solid outing.

Gasol has played over 29 minutes in all seven games to this point while putting up four double-doubles. The Pistons front line is certainly one of the most athletic in the league with Josh Smith, Andre Drummondand Greg Monroe, but they are undisciplined on defense and tend to give up big nights to opposing big men. Gasol does not have the upside of an Anthony Davis, but his reduced price makes him a great play today.

 

Roy Hibbert (IND, C) - $6,200

This pick comes with a huge asterisk, as Hibbert (knee) is currently listed as day-to-day. If the Pacers big man is able to go tonight, he should be in for a solid performance against the Jazz.

Hibbert was only able to play 11 minutes before getting injured on Saturday, but prior to that game, he had scored over 27 fantasy points in 5-of-6 games. The two-time All-Star has taken a bigger role on the offensive end with Paul George (leg) hurt, posting four double-figure scoring games to go along with averages of 8.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks.

Again, be sure to check the injury report before deploying Hibbert. If he is set to play, send him out with confidence. This price is too good to avoid.

**If Hibbert is out, Lavoy Allen (IND, C) at $4,000 makes for an interesting punt option.**

 

Best DFS Values (Sleepers)

Jamal Crawford (LAC, SG) - $6,000 

Normally, selecting bench players for DFS rosters is problematic. However, Crawford is not your typical reserve, as he has played at least 27 minutes in each game this year and is one of the top scorers on the team at 20.2 points per contest.

Crawford is a bit limited, as he does not rack up all that many ancillary stats, but the veteran guard has an inviting match-up against the backups of San Antonio. This game might just turn into a bit of a shootout, which could serve to maximize Crawford's potential.

 

Amar'e Stoudemire (NYK, PF) - $5,800

No longer a star, or even a consistent starter, Stoudemire flies under the radar most nights. However, when looking at his game logs you see a player who is still a viable DFS option.

Stoudemire has at least 24 fantasy points in five straight games, largely due to his excellent rebounding numbers. On the year, he is averaging a respectable 12.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.7 blocks. Those numbers certainly do not pop off the page, but for a mid-to-low priced option, they are certainly solid.

The Knicks are playing the second game of a home-and-home against Atlanta. In the first half of the bout this past Saturday, Stoudemire put up 14 points and grabbed 9 rebounds in just 21 minutes. Both of those categories could increase tonight.
