Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, PF/C, Brooklyn Nets

DraftKings Price: $3,700

Brooklyn Nets big Rondae Hollis-Jefferson came back from a groin injury 12 days ago, but it probably wasn't obvious to those watching. The versatile forward saw no more than 14 minutes of run in his first four games back, but that changed on Friday night.

Hosting the New York Knicks, Hollis-Jefferson saw his workload increase to 24 minutes, and he finally put together a solid fantasy performance, finishing with 24.75 DraftKings points. Tonight, he and his Nets teammates face off against the Boston Celtics.

The Celtics -- who are giving up the fifth-fewest points per game in the league -- are a more difficult matchup, but that shouldn't present much of an issue for RHJ if he gets more run once again; he's averaging a solid 0.97 DraftKings points per minute in 10 career games against the Celtics.

If he keeps up that type of production, he'd need just 19.1 minutes to hit a value of 5.0 DraftKings points per $1,000 tonight. We project him to finish with 20.2 DraftKings points and return the third-best value on the slate.
