DraftKings DFS Guards

John Wall – PG, vs ATL ($10,400)

With only two games on the slate, there aren't many big money options to choose from. John Wall is the highest priced player on the night, yet there should be no worry about compromising the rest of your lineup when drafting him considering the fluctuation in prices now that extra basketball has arrived. Wall is already having himself a series, averaging 28.8 points (51% from the field, 58 from behind the arc), and 1o assists through the first four games. As the series shifts to Washington, look for the Wizards' star to come out firing. In both home games of the series, Wall scored 32 points respectively.

Gerald Green – SG, vs CHI ($3,600)

Replacing Amir Johnson in the starting lineup for the second straight contest, Gerald Green impressed, and produced for daily fantasy, dropping 18 points and grabbing seven rebounds. He added four three pointers on nine attempts, giving those lineups that took a chance on him a boost. It looks like he will again be starting at the two guard position, as the Boston Celtics host the Chicago Bulls for a pivotal fifth game of the series. Look for Green to again free up cap space, and exceed projection.

Also consider: Isaiah Thomas – PG, vs CHI ($8,900)

 

DraftKings DFS Forwards

Taurean Prince – SF, @ WAS ($4,200)

Taurean Prince has been starting at the three spot, and has been averaging over 30 minutes per contest. While his stats won't blow you away, he has scored in double-digits in all four games of Atlanta's first round matchup with Washington. Prince has also averaged 5.25 rebounds in the series, and remains a sneaky threat from downtown. He's shooting 50% on eight attempts from behind the arc. Prince helps free up cap space, and has established himself as an important part of Atlanta's offense.

Bobby Portis – PF, @ BOS ($3,500)

Bobby Portis started this series with a bang, posting 19 points, nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and three made from downtown; good for 40.25 fantasy points, incredible at his price. But the power forward regressed in Chicago's next two games, before slightly bouncing back for eight points and eight rebounds in the most recent. The series again shifts to Boston, the location of his magical 2017 playoff debut.

Also consider: Jimmy Butler – SG/SF, @ BOS ($10,000)

 

DraftKings DFS Centers

Kelly Olynyk – C, @ BOS ($4,500)

Olynyk is another player that will help free up cap space in order to afford Wall, Butler, and Thomas all in the same lineup. Olynyk struggled during both games in Chicago, and saw a drop in his minutes. Luckily for him, the series moves back home, where Olynyk posted 27.0 and 29.0 fantasy points over an average of 23.5 minutes played. Olynyk and Al Horford are the only two big men in Boston's rotation, so expect another solid amount of court time as a key part of the Celtics' bench.

Also consider: Marcin Gortat – C, vs ATL ($5,900)
