1. Dion Waiters, Miami Heat

For four years, Dion Waiters has been known as an erratic player, and for the most part, that's because it's true. This year has been a little different with the Miami Heat, though.

Due to injuries, Waiters has played in only 34 games, averaging 15.9 points, 4.3 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 30.9 minutes. That, and a career-best player efficiency rating (14.2) has shaped him into a top-notch cash-game option.

Waiters is the only player over 60% in terms of cash-game rate. His range of pricing could be a product of that, which spanned from $4,300 to $7,200 in the first "half" of the NBA season. Either way, Waiters' production has been a welcome sight for DFS players, adding a relevant shooting guard to a position in need of more nightly options.
