3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 1/3/18
After flashing his high upside last night, Marquese Chriss remains a bargain play on DraftKings. Who else should you target for value on Wednesday's slate?

Kyle Anderson, PG/SF, San Antonio Spurs

DraftKings Salary: $5,300

So, the San Antonio Spurs will be without their whole team tonight. Kawhi Leonard, Rudy Gay, Tony Parker, Danny Green, and Manu Ginobili all will sit out, which means much more usage and playing time for the likes of Kyle Anderson, Dejounte Murray ($4,700), Bryn Forbes ($4,100), Brandon Paul ($4,100), and Davis Bertans ($4,000). Of that group, Anderson is likely to see the most significant boost in his role, as he should step in as the primary option behind LaMarcus Aldridge and Pau Gasol.

Anderson has only played 52 minutes without the group sitting out tonight, so the sample size is obviously small, but he has seen a 7.2% bump in usage and a 0.33 bump in DraftKings points per minute during that time. He should see 30-plus minutes in this one, and is a strong bet to hit value at a price tag that requires just 26.5 DraftKings points of him for salary-based expectations.
