Scrubs

Kendrick Nunn (vs NO – $ on DK; $5,400 on FD): Nunn has found his game again in the last couple of outings and now he gets to go up against the Pelicans. Miami is going to put up plenty of points in this game and Nunn is one of their best scorers. Looking for him to having a big scoring outing while producing elsewhere.

Robert Covington (vs HOU – $4,800 on DK; $5,800 on FD): Covington hasn’t been great in recent games but this is a great matchup for him, especially if Wiggins is going to be out again. The Rockets are not good against the position, Convington does have big game potential even if he’s struggled, and he’s at a low salary. At the very least in this one he’ll get you value.

Aaron Holiday (vs MIL – $4,900 on DK; $4,000 on FD): If Brogdon doesn’t end up playing, that’s only going to boost Holiday’s value. He was already playing well leading into the Houston game and with the unfortunate circumstances, Holiday will be able to shoulder more of the load.

Bryn Forbes (vs POR – $4,100 on DK; $4,100 on FD): Forbes, and most of the Spurs, haven’t exactly played good basketball as of late. But neither have the Blazers. So something has to give. At this salary, against a Blazers team who believe Carmelo is the answer, Forbes will be worth it. If nothing else, he will definitely get you value.

Austin Rivers (MATCHUP – $3,700 on DK; $4,500 on FD): Westbrook is going to sit, which means someone has to pick up the scoring load. McLemore played well on Friday and is a cheap option if you’re looking that way as well. But Rivers is more comfortable and gets more opportunities. He’s not going to hurt you at this salary either.
