Willy Hernangomez, C, Charlotte Hornets

DraftKings Price: $3,800

Devonte' Graham isn't the only player on the Charlotte Hornets who has the opportunity to be an excellent value play today. With Cody Zeller out with a broken hand, it's likely that Guillermo Hernangomez will get the start at center tonight as the Hornets host the Dallas Mavericks.

Hernangomez's minutes have been all over the place this season, but he generally gives solid output when given playing time. He's scored a minimum of 20.25 DraftKings points in each of the six games in which he's received at least 18 minutes of run, something he should easily surpass tonight, barring foul trouble.

Hernangomez is averaging a robust 1.24 DraftKings points per minute this season. If he keeps up that type of production tonight, he'd need just 15.3 or 18.4 minutes to values of 5.0 or 6.0 DraftKings points per $1,000, respectively.

Check back at numberFire later today for his daily fantasy projections after the Hornets' starters have been confirmed.
