Jonas Valanciunas, C, Memphis Grizzlies

DraftKings Price: $4,200

For a guy who was supposed to be eased into a role on his new team, new Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas certainly didn't waste any time showing the team what he has to offer. The seven-year veteran put up 23 points, 10 rebounds and 39.5 DraftKings points in just 21 minutes of run last night.

That showing came against the San Antonio Spurs, a team giving up the fifth-fewest DraftKings points per game to opposing centers this season. Tonight. JV will get to take on the porous Chicago Bulls, who are giving up the fifth-most DraftKings points per game to centers this season, according to FantasyPros.

It's thus little wonder that our models like him to have another solid game this evening. We project him to finish with 28.7 DraftKings points tonight, which -- at nearly 6.9 points per $1,000 -- makes him our highest-projected value play of the entire slate.
