Kyle Korver, SG/SF, Cleveland Cavaliers

DraftKings Salary: $3,500

This matchup between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Houston Rockets has a slate-leading over/under of 228 points. The only other game with an over/under of 220-plus points has significant blowout risk (10.5 point spread), so the best place to target for value is going to be this matchup.

Kyle Korver is a dude we rarely look to in daily fantasy, but he's been a sneaky source of value this season. His salary requires just 17.5 DraftKings points of him, which is right in line with his season average of 17 DraftKings points. He has shown the ability to crush value at this price tag, with three games of over 7.5-times value (26.25 points), and should have no problem finding his spot from behind the arc in this uptempo matchup against a Houston team allowing the ninth-most made three-pointers per game.

With Cleveland dealing with injuries to Thomas, Tristan Thompson, and Derrick Rose, guys like Korver, Iman Shumpert ($3,600), and Jeff Green ($3,900) are all worth a look in tournaments. Someone is going to have to step into a larger role for the Cavs if they are going to keep this one competitive.
