Took a small break from DFS. We are now 6-3 since writing articles. We are back with tonight’s 7 game slate, now that the Bulls vs Raptors game has been postponed. I will highlight the best high-priced plays and value plays to target. Let’s get back in the win column.

Reminder: If you have any lineup questions prior to lock, I will be happy to answer any of them if you comment and tag in under the article or DM me @rogersaj07. Also, if you retweet the article and DM me I will send you my player core that I will be locking into all of my lineups.

Top Play(s):

Lebron James; $10,800

How can you possibly fade Lebron James? With AD out for the foreseeable future, James will keep running things for the Lakers. That’s clear when you see his 35 percent usage rate with him on the floor. Lebron has been playing out of his mind to keep his Lakers in the win column. The matchup isn’t too shabby either, with Golden State playing at one of the fastest paces in the NBA. Get Lebron in your lineups!

Best Value(s):

Malik Monk: $5,300

Monk has scored 27.2 to 38.9 DK points in four of the last five contests. The fourth-year guard is shooting a blistering career-high 47.1 percent from three-point range on the season and will be in prime position to continue overdelivering on his salary Sunday. The Kings are arguably the worst defensive team in the league. Sacramento is also yielding 40.3 percent shooting from 3. Monk should see high 20’s to low 30’s minutes and he should be at least 3rd in shot attempts tonight.

Picks by Position:

PG:

1) De’Aaron Fox: $8,600

2) Ja Morant: $7,200

3) Kemba Walker: $6,800

SG:

1) Buddy Hield:$6,100

2) Malik Monk: $5,300

3) Bradley Beal: $9,600

Other Guard Plays (PG/SG): Terry Rozier: $7,900, Chris Paul: $7,800, Russell Westbrook: $10,300, Lamelo Ball: $8,800, Jeff Teague: $3,500, Dennis Schroder: $5,900

SF:

1) LeBron James: $10,800

2) Jayson Tatum: $9,100

(It is “when” not ‘if” Tatum goes off, he has failed me many times, but the reward outweighs the risk)

3) Harrison Barnes: $6,500

PF:

1) Julius Randle: $9,500

2) Marvin Bagley III: $6,200

3) P.J. Washington: $5,900

Other Forward Plays (SF/PF): RJ Barrett: $5,900, Draymond Green: $7,500, Jae Crowder: $4,500

1) Deandre Ayton: $7,000

2) Jonas Valanciunas: $7,400

3) Richaun Holmes: $6,500

Other Center Plays: Mason Plumlee: $6,800, Clint Capela: $8,400, Nerlens Noel: $5,100, Bismack Biyombo: $3,300, Montrezl Harrell: $6,000

Core/Lineup:

My core 3 for tonight is Lebron James: $10,800, De’Aaron Fox: $8,600 and Malik Monk: $5,300.

I will target the Rockets, Kings and Hornets tonight. I will also get my fair shares of LBJ and Tatum in some of my lineups. Best of luck!

Thanks for reading the article and best of luck on tonight's Draftkings slate!
