Tyus Jones, PG/SG, Minnesota Timberwolves

DraftKings Price: $3,400

Is Rose too expensive for your lineup? Have no fear, Tyus Jones is here! The fourth-year player out of Duke is perhaps the one player on the Timberwolves who stands to benefit most from Jeff Teague's absence.

Let's look at what happened last year when Teague was out. In the 70 games Jones played with Teague, he averaged 4.4 points, 1.4 boards, and 2.5 dimes, all of which was good for a paltry 11.5 DraftKings points.

In the 12 games without Teague, those numbers jumped to 9.3, 2.8, and 5.0, respectively. With an average of 3.0 steals in those starts to boot, Jones averaged 26.4 DraftKings points, an increase of 14.9.

With Rose in the mix, we don't have him projected for quite that output, but we still have him at 22.4 DraftKings points tonight. That equates to a value of 6.7 points per $1,000, the best projected value on the slate.
