3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 12/4/17
Kevin Durant is fully healthy and filling the stat sheet. In what should be an uptempo matchup against New Orleans, he might be a great addition to your DraftKings lineup.

Tyreke Evans, SG/SF, Memphis Grizzlies

DraftKings Salary: $7,300

Tyreke Evans's price is a bit elevated for this one, but that seems justified given the way he has played recently. He's averaged 35 DraftKings points on the back of a 28.8% usage rate over his past six games, with a ceiling of 63.25 DraftKings points.

He should continue to get all the minutes he can handle for a banged-up Memphis Grizzlies squad, which gives him considerable upside in a terrific matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves rank 25th in defensive efficiency and have struggled against opposing point guard. You'd think the return of Jeff Teague would have amped up the Wolves' defense against point guards (sorry, Tyus Jones), but that hasn't been the case. In two games since getting Teague back in the lineup, the Wolves have allowed Russell Westbrook, Louis Williams, and Austin Rivers to average 47.4 DraftKings points.

There's a slight chance that the Wolves stick Jimmy Butler on Evans and hide Teague on Ben McLemore defensively, which makes Evans a risky cash option at his increased price tag. The upside is huge in this spot though, so give Evans a long look when constructing tournament lineups.
