John Wall, PG, Washington Wizards

DraftKings Price: $9,400

For a guy with a $9,400 price tag, Washington Wizards point guard John Wall's fantasy performances have been rather inconsistent of late.

Wall has scored under 40 DraftKings points 5 times in his past 10 games, which just isn't the type of output you expect when you spend nearly 20% of your salary cap on a player.

Still, he's been having a solid year. Though his assists are down from last year, his scoring has increased by 1.9 points per game, and he's averaging more than a block a game for the second year in a row.

Tonight, he gets to face an Atlanta Hawks "defense" that is giving up the third-most DraftKings points per game to opposing point guards. The game also happens to have the highest projected total of the night, at 232.

While it's understandable that you'd be hesitant to roster him in any type of cash games tonight, the situation sets up perfectly for him to bust out with a big game and take your tournament lineups to the next level.
