Clint Capela, C, Houston Rockets

DraftKings Salary: $7,000

If looking for a tournament pivot off of Vucevic, Clint Capela is your man. Outside of a 30-point blowout win in which he played just 17 minutes, Capela has averaged 39 DraftKings points over his past seven games. His salary requires just 35 DraftKings points of him, which he should blow out of the water if this game remains somewhat competitive.

The Nets have allowed the fourth-most DraftKings points to opposing centers this season, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise. They play at the fastest pace in the league, rank 23rd in rebounding rate, and 26th in defensive efficiency. Their 23rd-ranked rebounding rate gives them more credit than they deserve though, because Brooklyn has actually allowed the second-most rebounds per game this season, thanks to the extra possessions created by their uptempo pace of play. Brooklyn also has allowed more blocks to their opponents than any team in the NBA.

The ceiling is clearly there for a monster game from Capela. The only issue is the 17-point spread. Avoid him in cash games on a slate as large as this, but don't be afraid to target him in tournaments.
