Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail Blazers

DraftKings Price: $8,800

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard is nowhere close to the fantasy producer that Harden and Davis are, but he ain't no scrub, either. The former Weber State star is averaging 43.9 DraftKings points per game this season, fifth-best among point guard-eligible players on DraftKings.

He'll get a chance to continue his success tonight as the Blazers travel to northern California to take on the Sacramento Kings, a team against which Lillard has found success in recent seasons.

Since the start of the 2016 campaign, Lillard has faced the Kings seven times. In those games, he's averaging 30.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 1.1 steals, and 49.1 DraftKings points per game.

We don't have him projected for quite that level tonight, but we still put him at 44.4 DraftKings points, the third-highest output in our projections this evening.
