5 – Cole Anthony

Position: PG/SG | Salary: $6,200
Projections: 17.5 Points, 5.3 Rebounds, 5.4 Assists, 1.7 Stocks

With Orlando dealing with injuries, Anthony has stepped up as the team’s starting point guard and is logging over 30 minutes per game. Orlando’s rotation is thin without Jalen Suggs, Franz Wagner and Gary Harris, making Anthony a focal point. While the Magic figure things out, take advantage of Anthony’s expanded role and production.

4 – Brice Sensabaugh

Position: SF/PF | Salary: $4,500
Projections: 16.1 Points, 4.2 Rebounds, 2.2 Assists, 1.0 Stocks

Utah is missing a slew of players, including Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, Lauri Markkanen and possibly Keyonte George. Sensabaugh is an efficient per-minute player who can thrive with the minutes and opportunities available on this depleted Jazz squad.

3 – Jeremiah Robinson-Earl

Position: PF/C | Salary: $3,000
Projections: 18.9 Points, 5.6 Rebounds, 1.8 Assists, 1.1 Stocks

Zion Williamson’s status looms large, but if he’s out, Robinson-Earl could be a strong value play at just $3,000. He has already started in one of the two games Williamson missed last week, making him a great low-cost option if he gets the starting nod again.

2 – Keyonte George

Position: PG | Salary: $5,500
Projections: 19.3 Points, 3.2 Rebounds, 5.6 Assists, 0.9 Stocks

Utah’s lineup is gutted, leaving George with significant usage potential if he suits up. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, George is in line for heavy minutes and primary ball-handling duties. Monitor his status closely, as he could be one of the best mid-range plays on the slate.

1 – Stephon Castle

Position: PG/SG | Salary: $4,000
Projections: 14.6 Points, 3.3 Rebounds, 4.7 Assists, 1.4 Stocks

With Jeremy Sochan ruled out, Castle steps into the starting lineup for San Antonio and carries tremendous value. He is a solid per-minute producer and is expected to log over 30 minutes in this role. His pricing doesn’t reflect his new responsibilities, making him the standout play of the day.
