3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 10/26/17

DeMarcus Cousins, PF/C, New Orleans Pelicans

DraftKings Salary: $11,500

DeMarcus Cousins hasn't been quite as consistent the Greek Freak, but he has been almost as impressive as Antetokounmpo in the early going. His DraftKings average sits at 61 points following a 66.75-point outburst against the Portland Trail Blazers. He now gets to return to Sacramento to face his former team.

He could get the added bonus of taking on the Sacramento Kings without Anthony Davis, who is listed as questionable. Cousins posted an absurd 44.3% usage rate in their last game after Davis went down early with a knee injury. In one game against Sacramento last season, Cousins was clearly motivated to look for his shot early and often, as he posted a 37.2% usage rate, even with Davis playing. His minutes were a bit limited due to foul trouble and a blowout, but Cousins still ended that game with over 70 DraftKings points.

The spread in this one is just 2.5 points, so it should stay competitive. If we see Cousins at 35-to-40 minutes against Sacramento, he is worth paying for at his elevated price tag. If Davis sits, getting Boogie in your lineup should be your top priority -- even over the Grecian Freakazoid.
