NBA DFS Value Vault: January 27

Welcome back to another episode of the Fantasy Alarm NBA DFS Value Vault!

 

 

1.) Jakob Poeltl ($3,200)- Since LaMarcus Aldridge has been ruled out, we could see a few different Spurs get a bump in minutes tonight. With LMA playing a lot of Center when not playing Power Forward, I believe Poeltl could see more than the 10-13 minutes he has been seeing lately. Not to mention the fact that over his last three of four games, Poeltl has put up 22 or more fantasy points in just the short mins mentioned above. Going against a Bulls team that is also depleted with injuries in the frontcourt, can give Poeltl a shot at his price on DK, compared to his $4.0K on FD.

 

2.) Reggie Jackson ($4,300)- Give us all the Reggie Jackson tonight. Saw 23 minutes in his second game back from a long injury stint, has now put up 30 and 36.8 DK points since returning, and we could be optimistic that he could see AT LEAST 23 minutes again tonight. This price is just too cheap for the usage (over 31%) that RJax has provided in the two games before he got a night off in the Piston's most recent game. Also, always helps that Cleveland has struggled pretty mightily against opposing PGs, as well.

 

3.) Larry Nance Jr. ($5,400)- Could turn up quite chalky tonight, however, you can't over-look how good he has been lately. Nance has recorded back-to-back-to-back double-doubles over his last three games, playing at least 24 or more minutes, and has amassed 28 DK points in his last four of five as well.

 

 

1.) Austin Rivers ($3,600)- With Harden sitting in the Rocket's most recent outing, Rivers saw 33 big minutes off the bench with Eric Gordon starting. Believe that we see something pretty similar to this again tonight, with Russell Westbrook already ruled out for tonight's game. Rivers has played 33, 19, and 21 minutes over his last three, while also notching out 21.3, 24.7, and 26.2 FD points in those three as well, all unto which are exceeding his value at this price.

 

2.) Seth Curry ($4,300)- Staying in the PG spot, Curry also provides some salary relief if need be. Curry has notched out 27.3, 24.2, and 32.8 FD points over his last three of four games. This same OKC team just allowed a triple-double to Shabazz Napier as well, and it was quite important to note that Curry received the starting nod at the SG spot in the Mav's last game.

 

3.) Dewayne Dedmon ($3,700)- We have to think that the Kings will use some Deddy to combat the size of Karl-Anthony Towns tonight, especially now with Marvin Bagley being ruled out for tonight's game. This game could easily get out of hand quick for the Kings, however, Deddy showed nice upside when give the mins, as he played 31 mins two games ago, putting up a double-double of 13 points, 10 rebounds, and two dimes as well. It could fall flat on it's face, however this slate has really turned up-side down over the course of the night and today. Play wisely!!
