Willie Cauley-Stein, C, Sacramento Kings

Price: $4,500

This is an absolute bargain for Willie Cauley-Stein, whose salary is something of a head-scratcher today.

For $4,500, you're getting 5-times value at 22.5 fantasy points. That's a mark Cauley-Stein has hit in five of his last six games. Of course, you'd like to see more upside out of a value option than just 5-times value, especially if their floor is sometimes shaky like Cauley-Stein's. But his three games with at least 30 DraftKings points (6.7-times value) in his last six show exactly that.

The Los Angeles Clippers allow both the NBA's seventh-most points and seventh-most rebounds per game to their opponents, making this a primo spot for Cauley-Stein. The Sacramento Kings big is averaging 12.4 points and a career-best 8.4 rebounds per game in 2018-19.
