3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 3/5/18
With the Memphis Grizzlies short-handed, they should be a good source of value tonight on DraftKings.

Terry Rozier, PG/SG, Boston Celtics

DraftKings Salary: $4,900

Kyrie Irving will sit tonight's game, which immediately puts everyone's attention on Terry Rozier. After what he did as a starter the last time Irving sat, Rozier will rightfully be very chalky at a price tag south of $5,000.

Rozier averaged 44.5 DraftKings points in three games with Irving sidelined in early February -- games that Marcus Smart also missed. Rozier has averaged 0.99 DraftKings points per minute without Kyrie this season, but that has dropped to 0.90 with Kyrie off and Smart on. That is still efficient enough to give him a look at such a cheap price tag, but don't just automatically expect the type of production we saw a month ago.

Smart has a 23.7% usage rate and puts up 0.89 DraftKings points per minute without Irving on the floor and is also cheap at $4,800. Both are viable targets against a weak Chicago Bulls backcourt defense, with Rozier being the preferable play of the two.
