DraftKings NBA Small Forwards:

Best Bets:

LeBron James ($10,900): You know how much LeBron likes the spotlight. The lights don’t get much brighter than welcoming in the team with the best record in the NBA that has the game’s best player other than the King himself. LeBron put up a solid 56.5 DraftKings points in the first game against the Bucks in Milwaukee. He’ll show up for this one as well.

Jayson Tatum ($10,000): Tatum put up 53.25 DraftKings points on Utah. That was his low mark in the last three games. Tatum is still rolling even though Boston is getting more healthy. They are still without Hayward and Brown, so look for heavy usage with Tatum again. Boston needs to make Tatum the center of their offense. They have looked better with Tatum taking over.

Honorable Mention:

Terrence Ross ($5,700): I’ve slow faded Ross in the expectation that he would slow down. He hasn’t. Ross’s crowning game of the season was his 51.25 DraftKings point outburst against Minnesota. This team still wont be able to guard him. Ross is pretty much a lock at this price. He has only been under 30 DraftKings points once since the break.

Kevin Huerter ($5,600): Huerter goes largely unnoticed with the numbers of Young and Collins, but he has had 77.75 DraftKings points over the last two games. This is a great matchup with the Wizards. This should be a high scoring game against a team that does not play good defense. Huerter isn’t just a scorer. That gives him a nice floor.

Dark Horses:

De’Andre Hunter ($4,900): Hunter has been playing well lately, putting up 92.75 DraftKings points over the last three games. Hunter doesn’t have a ton of upside since he’s mostly an afterthought on offense. Hunter’s activity on the defensive end is what makes him a target most nights. He is capable of scoring. Just don’t expect it.

Grant Williams ($3,400): Williams may not start again, but he should still see good minutes for Boston. He has no upside, but he also should play enough minutes to not hurt our lineups. I obviously like this more if he is guaranteed minutes as a starter, but Williams is a decent dart anyway.
