He is the Pistons\u2019 offense, and the fantasy points in this series reflect his value. He\u2019s finished with 59.5, 59, 46.8, 43.8, 53.5 and 51.2 in this series. Expect similar value in Game 7 in Detroit.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Donovan Mitchell ($8,400), James Harden ($8,300), Desmond Bane ($7,000)<\/p>\n<p>Value<\/p>\n<p>Ja\u2019Kobe Walter, Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers ($4,900)<\/p>\n<p>With Brandon Ingram out, Walter has stepped up. He put up 40.2 fantasy points in Game 6 and 37.2 in Game 5. If Ingram is out again, Walter is a great value option. He\u2019s recorded at least 20 points in back-to-back games with at least three steals in three straight games.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Anthony Black ($5,200), Jamal Shead ($4,800)<\/p>\n<p>Forward<\/p>\n<p>Stud<\/p>\n<p>Scottie Barnes, Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers ($9,200)<\/p>\n<p>Barnes fills up the box score every game, making him a valuable player even when he\u2019s not scoring. He recorded 66.8 fantasy points in Game 6 and has at least 43 fantasy points in all but one game this series. He\u2019ll be on the road for Game 7, but he\u2019ll need to be active everywhere for Toronto to win.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Paolo Banchero ($9,300), Evan Mobley ($7,800), RJ Barrett ($7,700), Tobias Harris ($6,600)<\/p>\n<p>Value<\/p>\n<p>Collin Murray-Boyles, Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers ($5,800)<\/p>\n<p>The Raptors have a plethora of talented young players, and Collin Murray-Boyles might be my favorite. He\u2019s such a versatile defender and gives his team anything it needs on both ends. That\u2019s reflected in fantasy points, as he had 17 points, seven rebounds, three blocks, two assists and two steals for 36.8 fantasy points in Game 6.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Dean Wade ($3,600)<\/p>\n<p>Center<\/p>\n<p>Stud<\/p>\n<p>Evan Mobley, Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Toronto Raptors ($7,800)<\/p>\n<p>There aren\u2019t many stud centers in this slate, but that doesn\u2019t mean Mobley is a bad consolation prize. He\u2019s capable of hitting 50 fantasy points as he did in Game 6, but he also had a low of 27.2 this series. He\u2019s not as expensive as other top-end talent because his production fluctuates, but he\u2019s still capable of posting elite fantasy numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Jalen Duren ($6,700)<\/p>\n<p>Value<\/p>\n<p>Sandro Mamukelashvili, Toronto Raptors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers ($3,500)<\/p>\n<p>Like I said before, the center position is thin for this slate. Finding value is difficult, but I like Sandro Mamukelashvili in Game 7. The Raptors\u2019 big has 12.5, 16.8, 19.5, 3.5, 30.5 and 18.5 fantasy points this series. He\u2019s not going to put up 50 fantasy points, but he\u2019ll chip in at a low cost.<\/p>\n<p>Other Options: Wendell Carter Jr. ($5,800), Collin Murray-Boyles ($5,800), Jakob Poeltl ($4,000)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brendan O\u2019Sullivan provides his thoughts and insights on DFS options for Sunday\u2019s NBA slate on DraftKings.
