3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 3/21/19

Troy Brown, SG/SF, Washington Wizards

DraftKings Price: $3,100

The Washington Wizards are 5.5 games out of the playoffs with just 10 games left to play. While miracles could technically happen, it's hard to imagine the Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, and Charlotte Hornets all rolling over for them. Given the situation they're in, it's not surprising to see the team give more minutes to younger players. One player who is starting to benefit from this is Troy Brown.

The rookie out of Oregon is averaging just 10.2 minutes per game this season, but he saw 30 in the Wizards' most recent game, a 126-120 loss to the Bulls. He took advantage of the extra run, scoring 9 points and grabbing 10 boards in a 26.0-DraftKings-point effort.

There is no reason to expect the Wizards to not continue looking at their rookie tonight when they host the Denver Nuggets. He could even get the start tonight if Trevor Ariza is forced to sit with a groin injury. We currently project him to score 23.8 DraftKings points in 22.9 minutes of run. He's already the top value play on our board tonight, and if he sees run like in his last game, that projection could jump in a big way.
