Markieff Morris, SF/PF, Washington Wizards

DraftKings Salary: $5,400

The Washington Wizards saw a collective price bump heading into tonight's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers, which makes a lot of sense given Cleveland's defensive struggles. The Cavs rank 28th in defensive efficiency, and this game projects as easily the highest-scoring among games with single-digit spreads.

While dudes like Bradley Beal ($9,400), Otto Porter ($7,100), and Tomas Satoransky ($5,500) all saw their salaries jump up, Markieff Morris actually saw a $500 price dip. This is the cheapest we've seen him in four weeks, and he needs just 27 DraftKings points to reach five-times value at this price tag. Considering he averaged 30.9 DraftKings points in nine games leading up to the All-Star Break, that doesn't seem like too much to ask for him in this one.

Morris isn't going to save you the salary that a Nwaba or Felicio will, but he is clearly underpriced and could go overlooked with more obvious values available.
