3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 10/30/17

Jameer Nelson, PG, New Orleans Pelicans

DraftKings Salary: $4,600

Jameer Nelson hasn't played particularly well in his time with the New Orleans Pelicans, with one 35-point DraftKings performance mixed in with three games under 20. He only played 19 minutes in a blowout of the Cleveland Cavaliers in their last game, but prior to that, he had seen his minutes on the rise in every game with his new team. It appeared that he was locked into a role of 30-plus minutes when games remained competitive, as tonight's is expected to be.

The Pels actually have the highest implied team total on the slate (116.5 points), as they take on an Orlando Magic squad that is surrenduring the seventh-most points per game. Orlando is also on the back end of a back-to-back and have been horrendous against opposing point guards with D.J. Augustin as their starter.

Last night, they were torched by a perviously-struggling Kemba Walker for 63.5 DraftKings points. Nelson needs just 23 DraftKings points to reach value at this price and is in play in all formats.
