3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 10/30/17
Kelly Olynyk, PF/C, Miami Heat
DraftKings Salary: $5,500
Kelly Olynyk is a tough player to trust in daily fantasy because he can post a dud at any time. The volatile nature of his game makes him more of a tournament play on most nights, but with a price tag of just $5,500, Olynyk will be tough to ignore tonight. He needs just 27.5 DraftKings points to reach value, a feat he has easily accomplished in three of his four games without Hassan Whiteside.
Whiteside is considered "very doubtful" to suit up for this game, which will likely mean minutes in the upper 20's for Olynyk. That should be plenty for him to reach value, as he takes on the league's worst defensive center from last season. Among 60 qualified centers, none posted a worse defensive real plus-minus than Karl-Anthony Towns.
