Luke Babbitt, SF/PF, Atlanta Hawks

DraftKings Salary: $3,400

I know we weren't expecting this so early in the season, but prepare yourself for a chalk-Luke Babbitt night. Babbitt started for the Atlanta Hawks in a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers yesterday, as Atlanta was without Ersan Ilyasova and Mike Muscala. Neither is expected back tonight, which means Babbitt should play close to the 42 minutes he saw last night.

Babbitt was aggressive in his expanded role, taking 8 three-pointers on his way to 29.75 DraftKings, which easily crushed value. Still priced at $3,400, Babbitt needs only 17 DraftKings points to reach five-times his salary implied value. With the minute load he is expected to see, that number should be quite attainable. Yes, he is likely to be the highest-owned player on the slate, but don't overthink this one -- on a three-game night, you can't pass up such obvious value.
