1. Ayo Dosunmu ($6,100) – Chicago Bulls vs. Washington Wizards
- Matchup Insight: The Wizards are struggling defensively, presenting an ideal scenario for Dosunmu. With Coby White potentially sidelined, Dosunmu’s already substantial role could expand further.
- Why He’s a Value Play: At just $6,100, Dosunmu has been delivering solid numbers, boasting a 5.04 value rating. He’s in a prime position to exceed value against a porous Wizards defense.
2. Vasilije Micic ($6,400) – Charlotte Hornets at Philadelphia 76ers
- Matchup Insight: With the Hornets missing key players, Micic has stepped up, becoming a reliable source of points and assists. His efficiency has been notable in recent starts.
- Why He’s a Value Play: Priced at $6,400, Micic offers a blend of scoring and playmaking against a 76ers team without key defensive players. Expect him to be heavily involved.

3. Kelly Oubre ($6,300) – Philadelphia 76ers vs. Charlotte Hornets
- Matchup Insight: Oubre stands to benefit if Tobias Harris sits out. His usage rate and fantasy production in the 76ers’ lineup could see a significant uptick.
- Why He’s a Value Play: With a potential increase in minutes and usage, Oubre’s price tag makes him an attractive option. He could easily outperform his valuation in this setup.
4. Jordan Poole ($6,500) – Washington Wizards at Chicago Bulls
- Matchup Insight: The Wizards are short-handed, thrusting Poole into a more prominent role. His high usage rate makes him a focal point of their offense.
- Why He’s a Value Play: Despite a bench role, Poole’s metrics have soared. At $6,500, his potential for high scoring makes him a standout value, especially with his usage spike.
5. Toumani Camara – Portland Trail Blazers at New Orleans Pelicans
- Matchup Insight: With the Blazers decimated by injuries and facing a superior Pelicans squad, Camara is expected to see extended minutes. His role solidifies further if Matisse Thybulle sits.
- Why He’s a Value Play: Although his price isn’t specified, Camara’s situation spells opportunity. He’s a low-cost option that could fill the stat sheet by virtue of playing time alone in a high-paced game.

Key Takeaways:
- Matchup Quality: Target players in high-scoring environments or facing weak defenses.
- Injury Opportunities: Player absences on their teams elevate roles and usage rates for healthy athletes, boosting their DFS value.
- Efficiency Matters: Look for players with efficient production rates per minute, as they’re more likely to exceed value when given the minutes.
In DFS, the aim is to find those under-the-radar plays that deliver beyond their price tag, and the players listed above represent some of the best value on the board for today’s slate. Their matchups, roles, and potential for increased production make them ideal candidates for your lineup, allowing you to allocate funds to high-priced studs elsewhere.
