Guard

Stud

Brandon Ingram, Toronto Raptors vs. Utah Jazz, $8,000

Hosting the Jazz, who rank dead last in defensive rating this season, the Raptors boast the highest implied team total on the slate at 123.5 points on DraftKings Sportsbook, and Ingram is one of the top ways to gain a share of Toronto. In his last two starts, Ingram has scored 43 FPTS vs. the Knicks and 47.75 FPTS vs. the Magic.

The veteran is leading Toronto with a 27.7% usage rate and scoring 1.1 FPTS this season. Ingram has played behind an implied team total of at least 120 points five times this season, and he has topped 40 FPTS in three of these tilts.

Other Options: Cade Cunningham ($10,200), Jalen Brunson ($8,300)

Value

Ayo Dosunmu, Chicago Bulls at Miami Heat, $5,600

With Josh Giddey (hamstring) inactive for the last two, Dosunmu has been excellent, scoring 37.75 and 56.5 FPTS, both of which came vs. the Heat, who the Bulls will be playing again tonight. Coby White (calf) missed the second of these two games and will be back tonight, so we can’t expect another 50 FPTS effort from Dosunmu, but he should still have no issues exceeding five-times value.

Miami leads the league in pace, and Dosunmu should see over 30 minutes for the third consecutive game with Giddey out. For the 10 instances Dosunmu has logged over 30 minutes this season, he is averaging 34.8 FPTS per game.

Other Options: Kevin Huerter ($4,600), Dru Smith ($4,200)

Forward

Stud

Lauri Markkanen, Utah Jazz at Toronto Raptors, $8,300

While paying up at forward isn’t the most optimal move for this slate, Markkanen has appeal for GPPs. Missing seven of the Jazz’s last 10, Markkanen should get slept on tonight, and he has flashed big upside with over 50 FPTS in two of his last four.

Keyonte George (ankle) is also out, and with the guard off the floor this season, Markkanen’s usage increases to 28.7%, and he provides 1.2 FPTS per minute. The Raptors rank eighth in defensive rating this season, but Markkanen still is a threat to top 40 FPTS.

Other Options: Scottie Barnes ($9,200)

Value

Jaime Jaquez Jr., Miami Heat vs. Chicago Bulls, $6,100

Assuming Tyler Herro (ribs) remains out as expected, Jaquez Jr. will be a strong option at this price point. The Heat will play the Bulls for the third straight game, and in the first two, with Herro inactive, Jaquez Jr. generated 48.5 and 42.5 FPTS, while logging 32 minutes in each contest.

Ranking fourth in pace and 23rd in defensive rating this season, Chicago is one of the top matchups to attack in the NBA, and another 40+ FPTS outing is within reach for Jaquez Jr. tonight if Herro remains sidelined. With Herro off the floor this season, Jaquez Jr. is producing 1.1 FPTS per minute with a 22% usage rate and a 23.9% assist rate.

Other Options: Matas Buzelis ($6,200), RJ Barrett ($6,100), Tobias Harris ($5,500)

Center

Stud

Jalen Duren, Detroit Pistons vs. Brooklyn Nets, $7,700

Duren has tallied a double-double of 40+ FPTS in back-to-back games, and he should continue to thrive with the Nets in town tonight. Brooklyn ranks 26th in defensive rating, and they are allowing the seventh-most points in the paint this season.

Duren bullied the Nets for a double-double of 50.75 FPTS in November, and this season, the big man is averaging 1.3 FPTS per minute while handling a career-high 22.5% usage rate.

Other Options: Bam Adebayo ($8,200), Alex Sarr ($8,100, if active)

Value

Collin Murray-Boyles, Toronto Raptors vs. Utah Jazz, $5,900

In this elite spot vs. the Jazz and their league-worst defense, Murray-Boyles has a ton of merit. With Jakob Poeltl (back) out, Murray-Boyles has started in each of his last 11 games, and the rookie is averaging 30 FPTS in 30 minutes per game during this time.

Murray-Boyles has erupted for at least 46 FPTS twice during this stretch, and he brings great upside relative to his $5,900 salary. This season, Murray-Boyles is producing 0.9 FPTS per minute while shooting 54% from the field.

Other Options: Danny Wolf ($4,900), Patrick Williams ($3,200)
