Elite Players
Guards
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Thunder 
($10,800) at Lakers
Gilgeous-Alexander is coming off a quieter outing, where he finished with just 26 DK points in 29 minutes of action. However, he topped 50 DK points in six of the last 10 games, while averaging 31.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks, and he should excel against the Lakers, who give up a league-most, 27.3 points per game to point guards.
Anthony Edwards, Timberwolves 
($10,000) at Nuggets
Edwards surpassed 45 DK points in seven of 10 games, with a high of 71, while averaging 29.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.0 blocks. He faces a tough matchup against the Nuggets but should get his offense rolling, as they allow opponents to shoot an average of 48.1 percent from the field.
Forwards/Centers
LeBron James, Lakers 
($11,200) vs. Thunder
James is listed as questionable, but he has played through the tag in most games this season. He sits just 35 points behind the all-time scoring record and has a great chance to make the final push against the Thunder, who give up the league's fourth-most free throws and allow opponents to score an average of 116.4 points per game.
Julius Randle, Knicks 
($10,200) at Magic
Randle topped 50 DK points in six of 10 games, including a high of 61.3, while averaging 25.9 points, 11.7 rebounds and 5.7 assists. He also logged 49.5 DK points in his previous meeting with the Magic and should see for another opportunity to shine, while they allow opposing power forwards to shoot an average of 49.8 percent from the field.
Anthony Davis, Lakers ($10,500) vs. Thunder
Davis is averaging 25.8 points, 11.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.0 steals, with a high of 63.5 DK points across five games since returning from a five-week absence. He faces a great chance to keep rolling against the Thunder, who give up the league's most rebounds and ninth-most points in the paint.
Expected Chalk
Nikola Jokic, Nuggets 
($11,600) vs. Timberwolves
Jokic missed the last game but is listed as probable for action. He averaged 22.2 points, 13.8 rebounds, 12.0 assists and 1.2 blocks in his last five outings, including two with more than 70 DK points. He totaled 69.3 DK points in his previous encounter with the Timberwolves and has another chance to flourish, as they give up the league's most free throws and third-most offensive rebounds per game.
Value Picks
Xavier Tillman, Grizzlies 
($4,600) vs. Bulls
Tillman is up for a fourth consecutive start after averaging 7.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.7 steals over the last three. He should do well against the Bulls, who allow opposing centers to shoot an average of 58.7 percent from the field.
Jaden McDaniels, Timberwolves ($4,600) at Nuggets
McDaniels is averaging 10.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.3 assists through 10 games, including four with more than 25 DK points. He could be up for added responsibility if the Timberwolves are without Kyle Anderson and/or Rudy Gobert, who are both questionable for action.
Herbert Jones, Pelicans 
($4,900) vs. Hawks
Jones is averaging 8.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 2.1 steals over 10 games, including six with at least 20 DK points and a high of 42. He has a good chance to thrive against the Hawks, who allow opponents to shoot an average of 47.6 percent from the field and give up the league's fifth-most points in the paint.
Coby White, Bulls 
($3,800) at Grizzlies
White continues to make an impact with 9.9 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals in an average of 23 minutes off the bench per game. He faces a tough matchup against the Grizzlies but should find room to get his shot going from long range, as they give up the league's sixth-most three-pointers per game.
Edmond Sumner, Nets 
($4,100) vs. Suns
After going over 35 DK points in back-to-back games, Sumner has another chance to show off his abilities while the Nets continue deal with roster changes. He has a tough matchup across from Chris Paul, but should have a chance to prosper, as the Suns give up an average of 25.0 points per game to point guards.
