Scrubs

Duncan Robinson (at POR – $5,200 on DK; $ on FD): Once again, with Butler out, there is going to be plenty of value across the Miami squad. Whether it’s Robinson, Nunn or Herro, those guys are going to get more opportunities to put up numbers. Robinson had the big game last time. It could easily be Nunn in this one. But grab someone from Miami given the circumstances.

PJ Tucker (at vs UTA – $5,000 on DK; $ on FD): Tucker will have to battle with Gobert and that’s a challenge he will probably enjoy. It’s a tough matchup but Tucker will get his shots and he’ll come up with plenty of rebounds with his position in the paint. He’s a good salary where he shouldn’t hurt you given his role on the team. Don’t put too much stock into the Suns game.

Brandon Clarke (at WAS – $5,000 on DK; $ on FD): There’s some undervalued Grizzlies based on their last performance, so definitely take advantage of that. The Wizards are better but they remain weak defensively. And the Grizzlies have plenty to play for and will be much better in this game than they were against the Sixers. Clarke won’t hurt you and the ceiling is high.

Bojan Bogdanovic (at HOU – $6,000 on DK; $ on FD): Bogdanovic has been playing great for the Jazz and nothing should change in this matchup. I still don’t like the Houston defense and I love everything Bogdanovic brings to the table. He can contribute in multiple ways and with Mitchell being inconsistent, his scoring is a big help to the team.

Ish Smith (vs MEM – $5,000 on DK; $ on FD): There should be plenty of offense in this game and Ish has been a very good scorer and creator for the Wizards. He’s at a good salary where he’s definitely not going to hurt you and he has the ability to play well above his salary given the matchup.
