Elite Players
Guards
Kyrie Irving, Nets 
($8,600) at Pistons
Irving is averaging 25.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.0 blocks through his last 10 games, with over 39 DK points in seven. He's coming off an impressive performance where he hit the winning three at the buzzer and should keep the momentum going against the Pistons, who give up the league's seventh most points to point guards.
Fred VanVleet, Raptors 
($8,300) vs. Warriors
VanVleet has produced back-to-back 39-point outings and is averaging 28.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.0 steals from the last five. He has an advantage against the Warriors, who are missing Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins and also give up the eighth-most points per game to point guards.
Forwards/Centers
DeMar DeRozan, Bulls 
($8,200) at Timberwolves
DeRozan is coming off a quieter outing, but is still averaging 25.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.0 assists in 10, including seven with at least 41 DK points. He has a chance to get back on track against the Timberwolves, who allow the fourth-most points to small forwards and the league's sixth most free-throw attempts.
LeBron James, Lakers 
($10,000) vs. Wizards
James has to shoulder a bigger load on offense with Anthony Davis sidelined. He's scored at least 30 points in the last three outings and should be able to keep rolling since the Wizards allow opponents to shoot 37.3 percent from long range and face the second of back-to-back road games.
Pascal Siakam, Raptors ($10,200) vs. Warriors
Siakam is averaging 23.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.1 steals in the last 10 games, while topping 40 DK points in seven with a high of 62.3. He should do well against the Warriors, who give up a league-high 26.4 free-throw attempts and the league's fifth-most points per game.
Expected Chalk
Kevin Durant, Nets ($10,700) at Pistons
Durant continues to make a significant impact on both ends of the floor. He is averaging 32.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.2 blocks over the last 10 games, exceeding 50 DK points in seven, including two over 60. He has another opportunity to excel against the Pistons, who give up the league's second most points per game and allow opponents to shoot an average of 48.4 percent from the field.
Value Picks
Naz Reid, Timberwolves 
($4,600) vs. Bulls
Reid got the start in the last game and dominated with 28 points, nine rebounds, three assists, three steals and a block over 37 minutes. He should see extended playing time once again as Karl-Anthony Towns remains out, but could be up for another massive showing if Rudy Gobert is also sidelined.
Chris Boucher, Raptors ($4,500) vs. Warriors
Boucher is averaging 7.9 points and 4.3 rebounds over the last 10 outings with more than 24 DK points in two of the last five. He has more opportunity to stand out as the Raptors continue to deal with injuries in the frontcourt.
Patrick Williams, Bulls ($3,900) at Timberwolves
Williams is averaging 9.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 blocks from the last five games. He faces a favorable matchup against the Timberwolves, who give up the league's third-most offensive rebounds and are shorthanded in the frontcourt.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Nuggets 
($4,100) vs. Hornets
Caldwell-Pope topped 27 DK points in two of the last three outings and is averaging 8.8 points, 2.0 rebonds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals over the last 10. He should do well against the Hornets, who give up the league's third-most points per game.
Dennis Schroder, Lakers ($3,800) vs. Wizards
Schroder went over 25 DK points in two of the last five while averaging 8.8 points, 2.0 rebounds and 3.2 assists. He has a chance to step up offensively as the Lakers need supplementary scoring in the absence of Anthony Davis.
