With 13 games on tonight's main slate, we have a LOT of options to choose from, so let’s narrow it down. Things could even change further as we have a lot of injury news still to be released before -- and likely after -- lineup lock. Let’s dive in and give you some of my favorite options of the night!

DraftKings

Kevin Huerter vs. SAS ($4,600) 

Since De’Andre Hunter’s injury knocked him out for an extended period of time, Huerter has slotted into the starting five and filled in admirably. He’s played 30+ minutes, scored 13+ actual points and 27+ DKP in each of his last three games. This is a nice pace up spot for Atlanta as San Antonio is fifth in the league in that category. San Antonio has really been struggling defensively the last two weeks ranking 24th in DRtg as a team.

James Johnson vs. BKN ($4,200)

With Joe Harris and Bruce Brown out, James Johnson’s number has been called on lately and Johnson has responded. He’s topped 23 minutes in three straight including 29 his last time out. Johnson has topped 26+ DKP in each of the last two games and at his price. Over the last week -- with these players out -- Johnson has averaged 1.11 FP/min and that is ELITE. Paul Millsap was back last game and that didn’t matter one bit.

Franz Wagner vs. CHA ($3,900)

The DraftKings algorithm is really factoring in two games against Milwaukee heavily in this depressed price point. There is absolutely NO doubting that fact. Heading into those games against Milwaukee, the Magic’s first-round pick had three straight games in which he topped 29 minutes and put up at least 16 actual points and 28 DKP. Charlotte’s third in pace this year and 22nd in DRtg, which is all the reasons we want to use Wagner here.

FanDuel

Danilo Gallinari vs. SAS ($4,600)

It’s been a nice stretch for Gallo for the first time all year. He’s topped 25 minutes in four of his last five games and has put up 27+ FDP in three of his last four. He’s not only giving us double-figure actual points essentially each night (four of five), but he’s contributing on the glass and in the steals department as well. I’ve mentioned it throughout this article, but the Spurs are top five in pace this year and bottom-10 in defense over the last two weeks.

Cory Joseph vs. MIL ($4,100)

This is not a great spot by any stretch of our imaginations. The Pistons are traveling to Milwaukee in this game playing the second game of a back-to-back. The spread has gotten crazy and currently sits at 15.5. That suggests this game isn’t going to be very competitive, but if it is, Joseph is playing a big reason why. He’s been extremely solid since entering the starting lineup for the Pistons putting up 30 FDP his last time out while topping 20 or more in four straight contests. He’s also played 29 minutes or more in each of those games.

Yahoo! Fantasy

Lauri Markkanen vs. PHX ($19)

Remember that minutes restriction Markkanen was supposed to be on? He played 30 in his first game back and looked sharp. Cleveland is still without Evan Mobley and possibly Darius Garland as well in this spot, meaning Markkanen’s offensive role could grow tremendously. With just Mobley off the floor this year, Markkanen sports a 27.2% USG rate and averages 1.19 FP/min. Those are ELITE numbers, despite the tough match-up he faces against the Suns.

Patrick Beverley vs. MIA ($18)

It’s hard not to love what Beverley has done recently. He continues to start and produce at a high level. He’s put up 30+ Y! points in each of his last four games and what he’s thrived at is his defensive numbers. He has at LEAST three steals and blocks in each of his last four games now that he’s starting and getting extended run. On the year, Beverley has averaged .96 FP/min despite not having a very high usage rate this year.
