Dennis Schroder, PG/SG, Oklahoma City Thunder

DraftKings Price: $5,100

Everybody and their mother will be rostering Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dennis Schroder tonight. If that comment does not include you, then make sure it does.

Due to accruing his 16th technical foul of the season, starting point guard Russell Westbrook will not play for the Thunder tonight. As such, Schroder will almost certainly get the spot start, and he's thrived in that situation so far this season.

In eight games without Westbrook, Schroder has scored 28.0 DraftKings points or more seven times. He's topped 40.0 DraftKings points in three of those contests. He's played the Miami Heat--tonight's opponent--once already this season, scoring 32.0 DraftKings points off the bench.

Our models see little reason for you to shun him this evening. We project him for 35.0 DraftKings points and have him modeled as the second-highest value play of the entire slate.
