High Value SG

Klay Thompson ($6,400)

To be frank, I have absolutely no idea why Klay Thompson’s price is so low on DraftKings. But since it is under $6,500 to make Klay one of your DraftKings daily picks, it’s impossible to not have him in your lineup. As the Warriors chase their record 73rd win, Thompson is likely going to be called upon to step up and help carry the team, which should result in a nice outing.

Rodney Hood ($5,300)

Remember when we talked about Shelvin Mack and the Jazz having a great matchup against the Lakers on Wednesday night as it’s a bad defense facing a team with something real to play for, Rodney Hood is in the same boat. Given his size and two-way playmaking ability, I think he could have a monster day at the office.

Kobe Bryant ($5,000)

This is a bit of an emotional call, but this will be the last time ever that you can make Kobe Bryant one of your DraftKings daily picks. That’s hard to wrap your head around—but it’s not hard to imagine the idea of Kobe going out with a bang and putting forth one last ridiculous effort. Subsequently, playing the Black Mamba on DraftKings one final time isn’t the worst idea by any means.

Wesley Matthews ($4,400)

Normally the fact that the Dallas Mavericks are playing the San Antonio Spurs would be a major deterrent from playing anyone on the Mavs. However, the Spurs are essentially resting anyone of consequence on Wednesday night and Dallas still has something to play for in terms of playoff positioning. With that in mind, Wesley Matthews is a great sleeper play on the back end at shooting guard on DraftKings.
