Elite Players

Guards

Cade Cunningham, Pistons ($10,500) vs. Wizards 

Cunningham is off to an incredible start and topped 50 DK points in five straight games, before finishing with 49.0 in the most recent outing. He is averaging 29.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 11.2 assists and 1.5 steals over that six-game stretch, helping drive his team to the top spot in the East. He has a great chance to keep things rolling with a matchup against the Wizards, who are giving up the league's most points per game. 

Anthony Edwards, Timberwolves ($8,600) at Jazz

Edwards is back on track, averaging 26.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.7 steals through three outings, including a high of 50.3 DK points, since returning from a four-game injury absence. He faces an ideal opportunity to keep building momentum with a matchup against the Jazz, who are giving up the league's sixth-most points and second-most three-pointers per game. 

Forwards/Centers

Evan Mobley, Cavaliers ($8,700) at Heat 

Mobley has gone over 40 DK points in seven of his 10 outings this season and is averaging 21.6 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks over the last five games. He is up for an advantageous matchup against a shorthanded Heat frontcourt, including the absence of Bam Adebayo

Julius Randle, Timberwolves ($8,100) at Jazz

Randle topped 40 DK points in the first nine games of the season, before finishing with 34.5 in the most recent outing. He has delivered two triple-doubles in the last four games and is averaging 22.3 points, 8.0 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.0 steals over that span. He should do well against the Jazz, who continue to deal with injury trouble in the frontcourt, and who are giving up the league's second-most turnovers per game. 

Jalen Duren, Pistons ($7,700) vs. Wizards 

Duren is on fire lately, averaging 24.0 points, 13.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks over the last five games, including topping 50 DK points four times in that span. He is up for a fantastic chance to thrive against the Wizards, who are giving up the league's second-most points and most rebounds per game to opposing centers. 

Expected Chalk 

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks ($11,700) at Mavericks

Antetokounmpo is off to one of the best starts among anyone in the league, averaging 33.8 points, 12.3 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 0.9 steals and 1.1 blocks through nine appearances, including six with more than 60 DK points and two with at least 80. He should dominate against the Mavericks, who are dealing with injury trouble in the frontcourt, and who are giving up the league's third-most rebounds and third-most points in the paint.  

Mid-Range Money 

De'Aaron Fox, Spurs ($6,900) at Bulls 

Fox looked good in his season debut, producing 24 points on 9-for-14 shooting, three rebounds, three assists and a steal in the Spurs' last game. He faces a tough matchup against a Bulls team that is playing well, but he could be up for a break if Josh Giddey (questionable) is sidelined. The Bulls also give up the league's third-most three-pointers to opposing point guards. 

Mark Williams, Suns ($6,600) vs. Pelicans 

Williams is averaging 16.0 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.7 steals over the last three games, including a high of 44.5 DK points. He should find room to prosper against the Pelicans, who are shorthanded in the frontcourt, and who are giving up the league's seventh-most points and second-most rebounds to opposing centers. 

Value Picks

Anthony Black, Magic ($4,700) vs. Trail Blazers  

Black is up for a boosted role, as he is set to start in place of the injured, Jalen Suggs. Black finished with 20 points on 8-of-13 shooting in his only other start this season and is averaging 11.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.2 steals on the campaign. He should do well against the Trail Blazers, who are giving up the league's fourth-most points per game to opposing point guards. 

Ronald Holland, Pistons ($4,300) vs. Wizards 

Holland is up for a second straight start for his shorthanded squad, after he totaled 20.0 DK points with nine points, four rebounds, an assist and two steals in the last game. He has a great chance to pad his stats against the Wizards' lackluster defense, while they also give up the league's most rebounds per game.

Saddiq Bey, Pelicans ($4,800) at Suns 

Bey is up for a third consecutive start for the shorthanded Pelicans. He has scored in double digits in each of his last three outings and delivered a season-high 36.3 DK points in the game before last. He is likely to stand out against the Suns, who are giving up the league's fourth-most points per game to opposing power forwards.
