3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 1/15/18

DeMarre Carroll, SF/PF, Brooklyn Nets

DraftKings Salary: $5,200

DeMarre Carroll has looked fully healthy in two games back, averaging 30.5 minutes and topping 30 DraftKings points in both. He now has averages of 30.4 minutes and 27.9 DraftKings points in five January games, which is strong production for a player in the mid-price range.

He will look to carry his recent success into a matchup against the New York Knicks, who have fairly strong numbers against small forwards, but have allowed the third-most DraftKings points per game to opposing power forwards. He needs just 26 DraftKings points to pay off his salary-implied value, which is exactly what our projections have him scoring tonight. Carroll is a strong play in any format if you're playing the morning-only slate, and is a borderline cash-game play on any all-day slate.
