The Daily Fantasy Basketball Playbook is on fire after another amazing performance last night. Rudy Gay, Pau Gasol, and "The Juice" O.J. Mayo were key to a successful night (see for yourself). There are plenty of value plays tonight at almost every position, but the center position has a lot of high priced players that are worth spending the big bucks on. Aaron Brooks could end up being a great value play if Derrick Rose misses tonight's game. Perry Jones is going to be highly owned because of all of the injuries to the Oklahoma City squad, but he's worth using because if he blows up and you don't have in your lineup then you're at a big disadvantage. Let's get to it.
