Terrence Jones, Omer Asik in Pelicans' first unit for matchup with Brooklyn
New Orleans Pelicans forward Terrence Jones and forward/center Omer Asik will get the start against the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday.
Anthony Davis (hip) is out, so there will plenty of opportunity on offense to go around. Jones finished with 18 points in 26 minutes the last time Davis sat, making him an attractive DFS option in a plus matchup. Donatas Motiejunas also has a lot of appeal.
Motiejunas comes with a $3,700 price tag on FanDuel and we project him for 11.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 2.3 3-pointers Thursday, making DMo numberFire's best DFS value play of the night. Just behind him is Jones ($4,400) with a projection of 15.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.4 blocks, 1.0 steals and 1.0 3-pointers versus Brooklyn.
