DraftKings NBA Power Forwards:

Best Bets:

Jayson Tatum ($8,200): Tatum dropped 51 DraftKing points on the Clippers in the first meeting. There are several reasons to think he wont do it again. First off, Boston is completely healthy with the exception of Robert Williams. Second, the addition of Morris give the Clippers a little more bite up front. Tatum might hit value, but he’s not going for 50 again.

Honorable Mention:

Danilo Gallinari ($5,500): Gallo has sniped the Pelicans for 107.75 DraftKings points in 88 minutes so far this year. On a slate full of not-so-sure things, Gallinari stands out as much for his absurdly low price as anything else. Gallo isn’t dropping 50, but he might be the only guy on the entire slate with a legitimate shot at 7x value.

Marcus Morris ($5,000): Morris put up 73 DraftKings points in two games against Boston with the Knicks this year. This is a different situation than it was in New York, but Morris is still a solid play. He has 49.25 DraftKIngs points in his two games as a Clipper. Perhaps the most intriguing stat was his 35 minutes of court time against Philly. This is another tough matchup, but Morris has a stable floor even if he doesn’t have much for upside.

Dark Horses:

Nicolo Melli ($4,000): Melli is making it difficult for the Pelicans to keep him on the bench. He has made multiple threes in four straight and six of the last seven. Melli has also topped 20 DraftKings points in five of those games, including each of the last four. If Ingram is out, Melli might be the best value play on the slate.
