DraftKings DFS Guards
Chris Paul – PG, at UTA ($10,300)
Paul has been playing at an elite level this postseason, as he has scored at least 45 fantasy points in each of the five games, including three games with at least 55 fantasy points. He’s an elite scorer, who comes with quiet triple double potential. He has as much upside as any player on this slate, and he isn’t all that expensive. CP3 makes a tremendous option in all leagues.
Joe Ingles – SG/SF, vs LAC ($4,600)
Ingles has been playing surprisingly well recently, as he’s averaging 6.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists, and 1.5 steals per game over the last 10 days. He isn’t a great scorer, but he can contribute in multiple categories on a nightly basis, and he has played well against the Clippers this entire season. He still comes with a low price tag, and he’s a great salary relief option tonight.
DraftKings DFS Forwards
Paul Millsap – PF/C, vs WAS ($8,400)
Millsap has been on fire recently, averaging 24.0 points, 11.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.3 steals per game over the last 10 days. He has been a huge part of the Hawks offense, and he’s an extremely versatile big man that can contribute in each of the five categories at some level. He gets a great matchup against a fast paced Wizards team, and he’s a great forward option on this slate.
Luc Richard Mbah a Moute – SF, at UTA ($4,200)
Mbah a Moute has been playing huge minutes for the Clippers recently, and he’s averaging 7.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 1.8 steals in 36.1 minutes per game over the last 10 days. He has scored at least 18 fantasy points in each of his last four games, including a 28.5 fantasy point effort three games ago. Mbah a Moute is an extremely cheap tonight, and he’s a great salary relief option in all leagues.
DraftKings DFS Centers
Rudy Gobert – C, vs LAC ($7,700)
Gobert played full minutes in Utah’s last game, and he scored 11 points with 11 rebounds, one assist, two blocks, and five steals. He has been playing at a high level in the playoffs, although he has played limited games because of an injury. The Jazz will continue to lean on him defensively, and he’s a walking double double with the potential to add steals and blocks each night. He also gets a solid matchup against the Clippers, and Gobert can be used in all leagues for his price tag.
