Guards

Elfrid Payton (ORL): $7,200 vs. LAC
The Magic have a number of injuries right now so Payton will become one of their top offensive options tonight. He is up against the Clippers who are giving up 44 DraftKings points per game to point guards this season. He is looking like a bit more of a GPP option tonight considering he hasn’t reached 5x value in any of his last four games. He has the double-double upside you want for a tournament. With the potential for increased usage due to the injuries, he will reach and exceed 5x value.

Donovan Mitchell (UTA): $7,000 @ CHI
Mitchell is an exciting young player for the Jazz who has been putting up good numbers on a nightly basis. He does, however, have a bit of variance when it comes to how many fantasy points he can score. Over his last 10 games, he has a high of 53 DraftKings points and a low of 23 DK points. That is a very large difference, but being a rookie it should be expected. Regardless of potential inconsistencies, he is in a good spot tonight. He is up against the Bulls who are giving up 42 DraftKings points per game to shooting guards which is 11th worst in the leagueReally solid match up for him tonight, and should be able to hit somewhere in the middle, when it comes to his fantasy point production.
