DraftKings Price: $3,200
Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter is doubtful for tonight's game against the Washington Wizards. When he missed Monday's contest, it was Shaquille Harrison who entered the starting lineup. Whether he gets the nod again this evening or not, Shaq should see a huge boost in playing time and is worth your consideration tonight.
Harrison wasn't spectacular on the offensive end in his most recent spot start, scoring just six points on 3-of-9 shooting. He made up for it on the defensive end, however, compiling four steals on his way to an 18.75-DraftKings-point night. While that may seem underwhelming, it still represented a return of 5.86 DraftKings points per $1,000 at his $3,200 salary, which hasn't changed for tonight's contest.
There should be plenty of opportunity tonight for Harrison to improve on the offensive end. The game has a fantasy-friendly total of 229.0 points, currently the highest on the slate. Our models certainly think he'll improve. We project him to finish with 10.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 27.5 DraftKings points.
