Brook Lopez, C, Milwaukee Buks

DraftKings Price: $4,500

I've long been under the impression that DraftKings has decided that Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez is no longer in the league. How else can one explain the consistently low pricing that looks like an afterthought?

Lopez enters tonight's game with a salary of $4,500 and a season-long average of 25.4 DraftKings points. That alone implies a value of over 5.6 DraftKings points per $1,000. his recent play makes his pricing even more inexplicable.

Since being priced at $5,500 on February 8, Lopez has scored no fewer than 24.75 points. He's now scored 26.0 DraftKings points or more in four games in a row, including 40.25 and 31.5 in his past two. Yet here we are $1,000 lower.

Enough of the why. It may never be known. Just know that our projections once again have Lopez returning more than 5.0 DraftKings points per $1,000.
