T.J. Warren, SF/PF, Phoenix Suns

DraftKings Salary: $6,500

We normally wouldn't qualify a player at this price tag as a "stud," but let's have T.J. Warren's play determine that rather than his laughable DraftKings salary. Since the Eric Bledsoe ordeal, the Phoenix offense has completely run through Devin Booker ($7,500) and Warren. Outside of a game in which he left with a head injury, Warren has taken at least 16 shots in every game this month. He has a team-high 28.4% usage rate during that span, and four of his seven healthy games have gone for 39-plus DraftKings points.

Houston has some solid wing defenders in Trevor Ariza and P.J. Tucker, but the high-scoring nature of this game and Warren's increased role is more than enough to make up for it. The only players on this slate that are being more aggressive offensively at this point are Harden and Kyrie Irving, both of whom are going to cost you significantly more than Warren.

He is as close to a must-play as they come on this slate.
