Kevin Durant, SF/PF, Golden State Warriors

DraftKings Salary: $8,900

Kevin Durant inexplicably finds himself with the cheapest price tag that he has seen all season, just in time for a competitive and high-scoring game that will be played without Stephen Curry. Durant already would have been in play at this price tag, but with Curry out of commission, he is a near must-play.

Durant has a ridiculous 35.8% usage rate and 1.48 DraftKings points per minute rate with Curry off the court. he only needs 44.5 DraftKings points at this salary to reach value, which he could hit in just 30 minutes at that per-minute efficiency.

We saw Durant regularly priced above $11,000 when Curry missed time earlier this season, just to put into context what a value he is today. Don't overthink this one -- make fitting Durant in your lineups your first priority.
