Seth Curry, PG/SG, Portland Trail Blazers
DraftKings Price: $4,500
Tonight's game between the Portland Trail Blazers and Atlanta Hawks should be one of the most entertaining on the slate, and it's one where a ton of value can be found, especially on the Blazers' bench. There is so much value, in fact, that all three of tonight's value plays come from the Rose City.
The first of the three is Seth Curry. The fifth-year player has had a defined role off the bench this season, though it has not come with a lot of minutes. That is, of course, unless C.J. McCollum is sitting out, as he's done for the past five games.
Curry, who is averaging 18.2 minutes per game and is second in the league in three-point shooting (44.9%), has been on the court an average of 29.8 minutes over his past five contests, putting up 17.4 points, 3.2 boards, 1.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 3.0 threes, and 26.7 DraftKings points in the process. He's been an integral part of the Blazers' current five-game winning streak, and he'll look to pour on the points again tonight.
In a game that Damian Lillard missed, Curry put up 36.25 DraftKings points in 31.5 minutes when the Blazers and Hawks met earlier this season. With C.J. out tonight, it's not beyond the realm of possibility to see Curry with that much run once more. In a game with a 234.5 total, the fantasy potential is huge. If he wasn't already on your radar, make sure he's on there now.
