In a time where teams are trying out new lineups, making adjustments and resting players with nagging injuries, it’s easier than ever to find NBA players at value prices on DraftKings.

It’s about that time of year in the NBA when a large amount of players are getting injured. Whether it be for long periods of time or just small nagging stuff, players are sitting out more and more games.

At the same time, some of those injuries who have sidelined the likes of Isaiah Thomas and Kawhi Leonard are about to come to an end. This week’s daily fantasy sleepers on DraftKings are almost entirely brought to you by injury.

Injury is frequently the best way to find steals on DraftKings. This is mainly because the website doesn’t adjust that strongly for increases in minutes. Until a player puts up bigger numbers than usual, the site will leave them at their cheap price. This is why it’s crucial to identify who isn’t playing each night and capitalize on their backup for an advantage.

With this logic, there are some other players who didn’t make this list but are worth considering. John Wall is questionable, making Bradley Beal a great start against the Brooklyn Nets. Devin Booker is out, meaning anybody who can score for the Suns is a promising prospect, including T.J. Warren, Greg Monroe and another player who will be named later in this article.

Tlast one is Tim Hardaway Jr., who is out tonight against the Lakers, which makes Cortney Lee a decent start since he’ll see an increase in minutes.

Besides all of those guys, here are the three best fantasy sleepers for Dec. 12.
