Monte Morris, PG/SG, Denver Nuggets

DraftKings Price: $4,700

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris will continue to have a spot in this piece until his salary catches up to his output. Given opportunities due to injuries to Will Barton and Gary Harris, Morris has taken advantage in a huge way and rewarded DFS players in the process.

His past four games are indicative of a player who should have a salary closer to $6,500, yet Morris enters tonight's game priced at just $4,700. He's scored at least 28.0 DraftKings points in each of his past four games and has scored double-figure real-world points in six straight, including a 20-point effort against the Memphis Grizzlies on December 10.

Perhaps the most encouraging sign that he'll continue to see court time is the 38 minutes of run he saw in his last game, a win over the visiting Toronto Raptors. It was the Nuggets' third win in a row, which has helped them hold onto first place in the Western Conference.

We have Morris projected for 23.6 DraftKings points tonight, which is equivalent to 5.0 DraftKings points per $1,000.
