3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 4/6/18
Already absent Kyrie Irving, the Celtics will need guys to step up with a pair of starters resting tonight. Who should we target there and elsewhere on DraftKings?

The Boston Celtics

With news that the Boston Celtics will be resting both Al Horford and Jayson Tatum tonight, a number of players stand out as excellent values against the Chicago Bulls. Terry Rozier ($7,200) and Marcus Morris ($6,800) will likely carry the offense and are strong plays at their respective price tags, but the real per-dollar values are further down the docket.

Jaylen Brown ($5,800) in particular stands out at a sub-$6k price tag. He's alternated between big games and duds recently, but with a big usage boost coming in a soft matchup against the Bulls tonight, he should be able to access that upside.

Two other players to keep an eye on are Greg Monroe ($5,300) and Aron Baynes ($3,600). Without Taytum, Morris will likely slide down to the three more often, which opens up huge minutes in the frontcourt for both Monroe and Baynes. With Horford and Daniel Theis out, each big man could push for 25-plus minutes, which is significant given their per-minute efficiency. Monroe is averaging 1.22 DraftKings points per minute without Al Horford on the court, while Baynes' per-minute rate sits at 0.89. With additional minutes at their disposal, both are enticing tournament targets.
