Derrick White, PG, San Antonio Spurs

DraftKings Price: $4,300

Finishing our trio of value point guards tonight is San Antonio Spurs second-year player Derrick White. After missing the first nine games of the season with a plantar fascia injury, White has stepped into the Spurs' starting lineup in each of the past two games.

His first start was underwhelming to say the least. He scored no points and handed out just three assists in 16 minutes against the Miami Heat. In his second game against the Houston Rockets, however, he showcased the skills that made the Spurs draft him with the 29th pick in the 2017 draft.

White poured in 14 points, dished out 8 assists, and grabbed 4 boards in 30 minutes of run as the Spurs downed Houston 96-89. He should have plenty of opportunity to put up a duplicate performance tonight in what should be a close, fast-paced game against the Sacramento Kings, who are currently giving up the fourth-most points to opposing point guards.

We have him projected for 18.2 DraftKings points tonight with upside for 38.1.
