Kemba Walker, PG, Charlotte Hornets

DraftKings Salary: $7,800

Kemba Walker has been a little disappointing in his past two games, but this is an excellent get-right spot, as the Charlotte Hornets get a home matchup against a fast-paced Houston Rockets team not known for their defense. Walker has played much better at home in his career and should thrive in a one-on-one matchup against James Harden, who ranked 62nd among point guards in defensive real plus-minus last season.

Many will focus on the Dwight Howard revenge game narrative, which may leave Walker a bit under-the-radar. However, Walker was a different player when Nicolas Batum was off the floor last season, and it is only a matter of time until we see that version of him again. Tonight's meeting with Houston could be exactly what he needs, making him an intriguing tournament option.
