Tyson Chandler, C, Phoenix Suns

DraftKings Salary: $4,400

Tyson Chandler is another dude who is tough to ever feel good about, but unless more value opens up throughout the day, he is someone we may have to give some attention to. Chandler has seen 30-plus minutes in three of his past four games, and this matchup with the Hawks fits his skillset quite well.

While Chandler is unlikely to hit double-digit real-world points with any regularity, the veteran big man is always a threat to pull down 10-plus boards. He should have every chance to do so tonight as the Hawks have struggled mightily on the glass without Dewayne Dedmon. On the year, they rank 26th in rebounding rate.

Chandler isn't a high-upside option, but he really does not have to do much to get to the 22-DraftKings-point mark he needs to hit value at this price. As long as we don't receive word that he is resting, Chandler is worth a look in just about all formats.
