DraftKings NBA Small Forwards:

Best Bets:

Andrew Wiggins ($7,200): I’m only mentioning Wiggins because I have to. His line on Tuesday was garbage. He had 16 real points and 16.5 DraftKings points. He was basically Bojan Bogdanovic with a worse shot. Things should be a little better with Draymond back in the fold, but with nothing but empty points against a team like the Lakers, this looks like too high of a price on Wiggins.

Danilo Gallinari ($6,300): Gallo has 61.5 DraftKings points in the two games against the Kings so far. He’s undersized at the four, but it’s not like that matters anymore. Just look at the Rockets. Still, the Kings are smaller and don’t guard shooters particularly well. The guards are going to do most of the damage, but I see a solid game from Gallo happening as well.

Honorable Mention:

T.J. Warren ($6,000): If the game with Charlotte would have stayed close, Warren might have broken the slate. He was hot from the field but netted only 27 minutes. The return of Oladipo could throw this off some, but I don’t expect the Pacers to play Oladipo big minutes. This is another nice matchup for Warren and we all know how dangerous he is when the shots are falling.

Bogdan Bogdanovic ($5,200): Bogdan’s shooting woes seem to have ended at the break, which is good news for us and the Kings. Sacramento is running him more than Hield right now. Bogdan is mostly a shooter, but he’s still strong enough everyone else to give him a nice floor. The fact that he’s starting makes him a bit safer pick since the floor is higher. He’s plenty good enough for this price.

Dark Horses:

Justin Holiday ($4,800): Justin came off the bench, but his high-volume scoring is what the Pacers need off the bench. Holiday put up 31.25 DraftKings points in just 23 minutes. He should play a little more in a closer game with Portland, but I can see Holiday’s output in the same area again tonight.

Furkan Korkmaz ($4,400): Richardson took care of the defensive end. Korkmaz had the offense. He and Shake handled the backcourt scoring well. It is basically taking three guys to replace Simmons, but I think we see all three of them put up good lines again with both Simmons and Embiid out.
