3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 12/5/18
Torrey Craig makes for a great punt play with Gary Harris on the shelf for Denver. Which other low-cost options are worth a look on today's slate?

DraftKings Price: $3,000

If you're looking for a minimum-salary player who has an opportunity to easily exceed his value tonight, look no further than the Denver Nuggets' Torrey Craig.

Craig's teammate Gary Harris has been ruled out for tonight's game against the Orlando Magic. While we won't know the starters until later tonight, it would not be surprising to see Craig step in for Harris, just like he did in the second half Monday after Harris got hurt.

Craig started for Harris in his two previous absences this season. While he averaged just 5.0 points in those games, he grabbed 9.0 boards and put up 20.25 points in an average of 28.0 minutes.

While those numbers may not scream "roster me", they're more than enough for a player who is listed for just $3,000. If you want to go super scrubs and stars tonight, you could also consider rostering teammate Malik Beasley, who should be the other Denver player that benefits most from Harris' absence.
