3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 11/2/17

Evan Turner, SG/SF, Portland Trail Blazers

DraftKings Salary: $4,400

Al-Farouq Aminu went down with an apparent ankle injury in the fourth-quarter of last night's game, and he was replaced in the starting-five for overtime by Evan Turner. There's no official word out yet, but early reports suggest that Aminu may be out for awhile. At a minimum, it seems quite unlikely that he suits up tonight.

If Aminu does miss the game, that will boost several Portland frontcourt players, with Turner likely receiving the largest increase in value.

At this price, he needs just 22 DraftKings points to reach value, which is a feat he was already accomplishing in his bench role. A move to the starting five would likely result in 30-plus minutes for Turner. That should be plenty of time for him to put up good numbers in a promising matchup against Brandon Ingram, who ranked 71st among 74 qualified small forwards in defensive real plus-minus last season.
