3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 11/16/17
Clint Capela, C, Houston Rockets
DraftKings Salary: $7,200
Clint Capela is getting minutes, y'all.
It's not quite as exciting as Joel Embiid's minute restriction finally being lifted, but it is a trend definitely worth watching. After having his minutes kept in the low-20s for most of the early going, Capela has averaged 31.8 minutes over his past four games. And perhaps not-so-coincidentally, he has also averaged 39.7 DraftKings points during that time.
DraftKings apparently hasn't caught on to this trend, because he needs just 36 DraftKings points to reach five-times his salary implied value. He has five games of at least 38 DraftKings points in his past 1, and has reached the 30-point threshold in all but three of those. In an up-tempo matchup against a Suns squad that ranks in the bottom-10 in both defensive efficiency and rebounding rate, Capela should have no trouble keeping the hot streak going.
