Lance Stephenson, SG/SF, Indiana Pacers

DraftKings Salary: $4,100

With Victor Oladipo out Saturday, Lance Stephenson stepped up and delivered a big performance. He put up 33 DraftKings points in 36 minutes against perhaps the league's toughest defense in the Boston Celtics. It also marked the sixth game that he has reached five-times his salary implied value (20.5 DraftKings points) at this price in his past seven. Even with Oladipo in the lineup, he has had no trouble reaching value recently.

Oladipo said he is feeling better for today's game, but he is still listed as a game-time decision. Luckily, this is the first game on the slate, so we should know his status prior to lineup lock. If he is out again, Stephenson would become a must-play in an uptempo matchup against the Orlando Magic.

The Indiana Pacers have the slate's fifth-highest implied team total (111.25 points) and the over/under (218.5 points) in this one is the third-highest. Stephenson put up 24 DraftKings points in 23 minutes in this matchup just a week ago and could be in store for a big performance again tonight. If Oladipo plays, Stephenson is nothing but a tournament flier. If he sits, though, Stephenson is an auto-play at this price tag.
