Mario Hezonja, SF/PF, New York Knicks

DraftKings Price: $4,400

We can't peek into the mind of New York Knicks head coach David Fizdale, but even he of the ever-changing rosters has to continue to play Luke Kornet in a starting role after what he's been able to do over the past two games. Right?

Nope. While Kornet might continue to see solid minutes off the bench, it will be Mario Hezonja who gets the start tonight when the Knicks take on the Orlando Magic. Fizdale made a promise to start Hezonja in this game, according to Knicks beat writer Steve Popper. This is presumably because Hezonja played his first three seasons in Orlando before moving to the Big Apple this year.

Hezonja came off the bench in the Knicks' first meeting against the Magic this year and missed their subsequent two games against them. So, it's actually a pretty class act of Fizdale to give Hez the start here in an otherwise meaningless game for the team.

We don't have Hezonja projected for much currently, but that's only because the official lineups haven't yet been released. When they are, expect to see Super Mario among the best projected values of the evening.
