Welcome to our first NBA Bargain Bin article of the season. I?ll try and hit you with a new Bargain Bin every Friday to give you an edge heading into the night games. The value is obviously with the rookies early, as you?re about to find out.
Point Guards
Kyrie Irving, CLE at IND ($3,700)
Kemba Walker, CHA vs. ORL ($3,300)
Irving is starting at point guard for the Cavs, definitely making him a starter-worthy player at that price despite lining up against a good defensive team in the Pacers. Walker has proven adept at scoring early and could get some extra minutes with D.J. Augustin hobbled. If you don?t trust the rookies, Chris Duhon ($3,800) is expected to see a lot of time with Jameer Nelson hurt.
Shooting Guards
Gerald Henderson, CHA vs. ORL ($5,400)
Marshon Brooks, NJ at ATL ($3,200)
Henderson is a little more expensive than the players discussed thus far, but he?s scoring at will in the early going, making him well worth the price over many $6K options. Brooks has consecutive 17-point games to his credit and could be in for another solid game on Friday. His young legs can certainly hold up during a back-to-back.
Small Forwards
Terrence Williams, HOU at MEM ($4,500)
Tristan Thompson, CLE at IND ($3,200)
Williams has looked pretty good in limited time so far, and he could be in line for a big hike in minutes with Chase Budinger not looking so hot. It?s a gamble, but it could pay off. Thompson saw a minutes hike in his second start, and he?s scored double digits in each of his first two games. He?s another gamble for you dice-rollers out there.
Power Forwards
Markieff Morris, PHO at NO ($3,400)
Jonas Jerebko, DET at BOS ($3,200)
Morris has done a nice job in his first two games while averaging 26 minutes per contest. He?s worth using while he remains productive. With Charlie Villanueva suspended for one more game, Jerebko is worth running out there in FanDuel one more time before you have to re-assess.
Centers
Spencer Hawes, PHI at UTA ($5,600)
Mehmet Okur, NJ at ATL ($3,700)
Hawes has been a beast in the early-going, with 19 points, 25 boards, 12 dimes, four steals and three blocks in just two games. He?s a heck of a starter at his current price level. Okur moved into the starting lineup on Thursday and did OK against Dwight Howard. He?ll likely draw another start after playing 26 minutes yesterday and should post solid numbers.
