DraftKings Salary: $4,400
With Markelle Fultz and J.J. Redick both out, T.J. McConnell and Jerryd Bayless ($4,100) have been logging big minutes for the Philadelphia 76ers. While Bayless hasn't done much with his minutes, McConnell has put on a show -- averaging 34.9 DraftKings points in two games without Fultz. Those numbers are a bit inflated by his seven steals during that two-game stretch, but McConnell is still clearly outplaying his price tag.
At his current salary, McConnell needs just 22 DraftKings points to reach value, which certainly seems attainable in an up-tempo matchup against the Houston Rockets. He is a strong play in all formats.
