Devin Booker, SG/SF, Phoenix Suns

DraftKings Salary: $8,400

Similar to Irving, Devin Booker had a poor game last night, but it was largely due to playing limited minutes in a blowout loss. If a game gets out of hand early and the coach knows they're on the front end of a back to back, they're going to rest their stars. Finding situations like this can be key on a day-to-day basis, because you can discover some players who will have lower ownership than they should due to recency bias. That may not necessarily be the case on a three-game slate such as this, but it's important to keep an eye on as the season progresses.

In the four games prior to last night's stinker, Booker had averaged 43.4 DraftKings points and posted a 29.3% usage rate. That type of production is right in line with what we'd expect from a player at this price tag, and is the type of role that he should occupy tonight against the Brooklyn Nets.

From a fantasy perspective, it doesn't get much better than a matchup against the Nets. Brooklyn has played at the league's fastest pace by a wide margin and ranks 27th in defensive efficiency. As such, the over/under in this one is set for 234 points, which is easily the highest on the slate. The last time these two teams faced off, they totaled 236 points and Booker finished with 47.25 DraftKings points. This is a game you are going to want to attack, and Booker is the highest upside player in the game. He is a must-have if playing in tournaments tonight.
