Elite Players
Guards
James Harden, 76ers 
($9,600) at Hornets
Harden has been in a groove lately, averaging 23.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, 12.8 assists and 1.0 steals across his last five appearances, including two games with more than 60 DK points. He faces a great chance to keep rolling against the Hornets, who give up an average of 12.4 threes and 24.1 free throws per game.
Jaylen Brown, Celtics 
($8,900) at Trail Blazers
Brown is on a roll, with over 50 DK points in back-to-back outings and a high of 63.8 within his last five games. He should continue to shine against the Trail Blazers, who allow opponents to shoot an average of 37.3 percent from long range and give up the league's eighth-most points per game to shooting guards.
Forwards/Centers
Brandon Ingram, Pelicans 
($8,100) at Rockets
Ingram dropped 43 DK points in the last outing, which marked his first game back after a two-game absence. He is averaging 25.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists through his last 10 appearances and should do well against the Rockets, who give up the league's most three-pointers and third-most points per game.
Jaren Jackson, Grizzlies 
($7,300) at Spurs
Jackson topped 40 DK points in four of the last six outings, including a high of 45.3, while averaging 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists 1.3 blocks and 1.2 steals per game. He must continue to step up while the Grizzlies remain shorthanded in the frontcourt, and he has a great chance to excel against the Spurs, who give up the league's most points per game.
Nikola Vucevic, Bulls 
($8,000) vs. Timberwolves
Vucevic is averaging 17.6 points, 11.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.0 steals through five games, including a high of 50.3 DK points. He should be up for another solid outing against the Timberwolves, who give up the league's third-most offensive rebounds per game and fourth-highest three-point percentage to opposing centers.
Expected Chalk
Joel Embiid, 76ers ($11,400) at Hornets
Embiid continues to dominate both ends of the floor, averaging 38.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 3.0 blocks and 1.2 steals with a high of 70.5 DK points through the last five games. He faces an excellent chance to prosper against the Hornets, who give up the league's most rebounds and fifth-most points per game to centers.
Value Picks
John Collins, Hawks 
($4,600) vs. Warriors
Collins tallied at least 22 DK points in four of the past five outings, averaging 11.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game. He faces a good chance to stand out against the Warriors, who are shorthanded in the frontcourt and give up the league's sixth-most points and sixth-most free throws per game.
Jonathan Kuminga, Warriors 
($4,400) at Hawks
Kuminga was quiet, with just 10 DK points in his last outing, which marked his first one back after a three-game absence. He is averaging 9.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists on the season and should be up for added opportunity while the Warriors are shorthanded. He also has a favorable matchup against the Hawks, who give up the league's most points per game to power forwards.
Tobias Harris, 76ers ($4,900) at Hornets
Harris has been relatively quiet lately, averaging 9.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks across four games since returning from a one-game absence. He faces a great opportunity to flourish against the Hornets, who give up the league's eighth-most points and eighth-most offensive rebounds per game.
Jae'Sean Tate, Rockets 
($4,200) vs. Pelicans
Tate topped 20 DK points in four of five games, including a high of 29.5, while averaging 11.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists. He should continue to succeed against the Pelicans, who allow opponents to shoot 47.6 percent from the field and give up the league's eighth-most turnovers per game.
Patrick Beverley, Bulls ($4,600) vs. Timberwolves
Beverley hauled in 11 rebounds in the last outing and continues to bring energy to the lineup, averaging 5.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.0 blocks over five games. He should stand out against his former squad, who give up the league's most rebounds and fifth-most points per game to point guards.
