Rudy Gay, SF/PF, San Antonio Spurs

DraftKings Salary: $5,200

After being limited for the early portion of the season, Rudy Gay has looked quite healthy while logging more minutes for the San Antonio Spurs over the past two games. With Kawhi Leonard and Kyle Anderson both sidelined, Gay has played 32 and 33 minutes and put up 36.5 and 35.25 DraftKings points for San Antonio. He's been more aggressive on the glass during that span, while also taking at least 12 shots in both games.

At this price tag, Gay needs just 26 DraftKings points to hit value. The matchup against the Boston Celtics is far from ideal, but given the way he has played recently, Gay is a fair bet to again pay off his salary. Keep an eye on the injury news for Boston leading up to lineup lock too, because if they are again without Jaylen Brown and Marcus Morris, they not only become a worse rebounding team, but they are without two guys who have the length and athleticism to match up with Gay.
