DraftKings Price: $6,000

Let's make it a Warriors/Blazers trifecta, shall we? While Draymond Green's $6,000 price tag puts him at the very bottom of what we'd consider stud status, his upside in this matchup is just too great.

After a three-game streak with DraftKings output below 30 points to start the month, Green has rebounded and put up 37.25 and 31.25 against the Miami Heat and Utah Jazz, respectively. Those numbers pale in comparison to Green's upside against the Blazers in what should be a very closely fought game.

The Warriors have dropped two of their past three in the Moda Center, where they are only three-point favorites tonight. As touched on with the Durant blurb earlier, this indicates that we're unlikely to see the Warriors starters' minutes diminished here. As such, green should be in line for at least the 34 and 35 minutes he saw in his past two (he saw 34 and 41 against the Blazers earlier this season).

He did have a 24.75-DraftKings point dud the last time out against Portland, but he scored at least 37.0 in each of the three before that, and has topped 40.0 or more DraftKings points in 10 of his past 14 against them. We project him for 33.4 DraftKings points tonight.
