3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 11/6/18
John Wall has struggled, but a date with the Mavericks might be just what he needs to get his game back on track.

John Wall, PG, Washington Wizards

DraftKings Price: $8,800

On a four-game slate, your first thought might be to load up on the one true high-end play of the night, which is Giannis Antetokounmpo. Though he's scored 60-plus DraftKings points in two of his past four games against the Portland Trail Blazers, that's still a hard pill to swallow when his price is $12,600.

Instead, we're going to look at three plays that have better upside (at least from a value standpoint) and won't take up 25.2% of your salary cap. The first of these three we'll cover is Washington Wizards point guard John Wall.

Wall's season to date has been somewhat disappointing from a fantasy standpoint. Though his scoring is up 1.8 points to 21.2, he's seen big declines in many other categories. His 7.3 assists per game would be the worst mark of his career if the season ended today, and he's averaging career-worsts in free throw percentage, rebounds, and turnovers.

A matchup with the Dallas Mavericks may be exactly what he needs to turn things around. He has scored at least 50.5 DraftKings points in five of his past six games against them, a stretch which includes four double-doubles.

Tonight's game has all the signs of a fantasy goldmine, with a total set at 226 and just a one-point spread. We have Wall's upside at 54.3 DraftKings points in what should prove to be a very entertaining game.
