Short slate today folks with just three games so the value options are going to be really limited! That said, there are some guys who I think at their price present some upside so lets go ahead and take a look!
 
Rajon Rondo , PG (DK:$4,500/FD:$5,000) - What did I tell you the other day? The Clippers got Rondo for the playoff run. He saw 23 minutes in Game 1 and finished with 11 points, four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal. Will he play much more than 25 minutes in any game this series? I have some doubts, but he is a player that can fill the stat sheet and he was on the floor for the entire fourth quarter which means he is trusted to close out these games with the starters.  
 
Nicolas Batum , SF/PF (DK:$3,800/FD:$4,300) - Batum is priced under $4,000 and saw 32 minutes in the Clippers Game 1 loss to the Mavs. All season long Batum has provided solid all around production while playing close to 30-minutes a night. All we need out of him at this price is 19 FP for 5x and if he matches the 25  FP from Game 1 that is even better.
 
Dorian Finney-Smith , SF/PF (DK:$4,700/FD:$4,400) - DFS is a bit more expensive than Batum but also saw  a bunch of minutes and scored 18 points with five boards, two assists and a steal. The offensive upside from DFS has been nice to see as he has scored in double-figures in three straight games.
 
Jabari Parker , PF (DK:$3,000/FD:$3,800) - I was as stunned as anybody to see Parker get any minutes during Game 1 nevermind meaningful, early rotational minutes for the Celtics. Boston knows they need offense if they hope to compete with the Nets and Parker, for all his flaws, can score the basketball. I am still worried that he may not see the floor if Brad Stevens tries for more defense with someone like Semi Ojeyle instead but Parker finished with 17 FP in 21 minutes. Which is over 5x return on DK and just under 5x return on FD.
 
Tim Hardaway , SG (DK:$5,400/FD:$5,100) - Should be a rather popular option after playing 32 minutes in Game 1 and going for 21 points, four rebounds and one assist. A slightly better play on DK because of the three-point bonus but the shooting guard position is limited and he offers some nice GPP upside.
