Jordan Bell, PF/C, Golden State Warriors

DraftKings Salary: $4,500

The Golden State Warriors have already declared Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala out for tonight's contest against the Chicago Bulls, which will move Jordan Bell into the starting lineup. Bell's first start of the season came against this Bulls squad, which he turned into 36 DraftKings points in 26 minutes. He was clearly fired up for that game, as he more than once made reference to the fact that Chicago traded away his rights for cash considerations on Draft night.

We know that Kerr likes to troll the rest of the league, so it makes sense that he is giving Bell another chance to shine here against Chicago. He's produced well over a DraftKings point per minute on the year, so he won't need much playing time to exceed his salary-implied value of 22.5 DraftKings points. If he sees somewhere around the 23.4 minutes he has averaged in 10 starts this season, Bell should have no problem crushing value at this price. Don't expect the eight combined steals/blocks he piled up last time against Chicago, but don't be surprised if he puts up another strong showing.
