Ian Clark, PG/SG, New Orleans Pelicans
DraftKings Price: $4,600
There is so much value tonight, that it's pretty dang hard to limit it to just a few choices. One player who has been thriving over the past few games and should continue to do so tonight is New Orleans Pelicans guard Ian Clark.
The Pelicans are facing a Golden State Warriors team that has clinched first place in the Western Conference and has ceded the top record in the league to the Milwaukee Bucks. As such, there is little reason for Steph, Klay, Kevin, Dray, and DeMarcus to play many--if any--minutes this evening.
Defense should be pretty nonexistent in this game, which is nothing new for the Pelicans, who have combined with their opponents to score over 250 points in three of their past six games.
Clark has been an increasingly big part of their offense, scoring 17, 24, and 31 points in the past three games. The 31 points and peripheral stats on Sunday allowed Clark to bust out a 51.5-DraftKings-point evening. While it's hard to expect that again, he should have all the opportunity in the world to at least try.
