3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 3/15/18
Kyle Korver, SG/SF, Cleveland Cavaliers
DraftKings Salary: $4,000
Kyle Korver is set to start another game for the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight, who could again be without Rodney Hood. He put up 30 DraftKings points in 23 minutes in his most recent start, and if not for the blowout nature of the game, Korver would have pushed for close to 30 minutes. That type of playing time is definitely accessible for him tonight, which would give him a very good chance of reaching value in this high-scoring affair against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Korver has averaged 0.81 DraftKings points per minute since the All-Star Break, a rate which would require just 25 minutes to exceed the 20 DraftKings points needed of him at this salary.
Korver does not bring huge upside, but he certainly has the ability to reach value at this price point. Given the relative lack of exciting value on this slate, a safe, salary-saving option such as Korver is appealing if trying to fit in some of the studs.
