3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 4/1/19

Tristan Thompson, C, Cleveland Cavaliers

DraftKings Price: $4,100

Looking for a more traditional value play this evening? Look no further than Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson. The big man has dealt with a ton of injuries this season, but he's back in time to become a star value play as the NBA enters the hard-to-watch time of the year.

Thompson's 26 minutes this past Saturday were his most since January 13, and he put them to good use, finishing with 10 points, 10 boards, and 28.0 DraftKings points. Tonight he faces a Phoenix Suns team that has given up the second-most DraftKings points per game to opposing centers over their past seven games.

On top of that, the Cavs may again be without Kevin Love, who missed Saturday's game with a shoulder injury. As of Monday morning, our models love Thompson to bust out here, projecting him for 30.9 DraftKings points. That equates to a massive value of 7.52 DraftKings points per $1,000.
