NBA DFS: Jalen Brunson among strong stud, mid-tier, and value plays for Friday

NBA DFS analyst Ameer Tyree gives his favorite DraftKings stud, mid-tier, and value plays for Friday's 14-game slate

Friday's main NBA slate will be loaded. Fourteen games are set to tip-off ahead of the weekend, so it's bound to be fairly difficult to evaluate every strong DFS play on the table. Need a helping hand finding the best stud, mid-tier, and value plays available? We've got you covered with some DraftKings options worth considering. 

Ameer Tyree got his start in NBA DFS more than four years ago. The former DraftKings Nation betting and fantasy writer spent over a year and a half breaking down basketball slates to build optimal lineups there. Now he's locked in on six plays at different price points for Friday.

One play Ameer loves: Jalen Brunson at $7,100. "Brunson has already scored more than 40 fantasy points in two road games against the Bulls this season," Ameer says about the matchup. "Now the point guard will lead his team against a Chicago squad that's giving up 116.8 points per game on the road. The Bulls also won't have Alex Caruso, as he's been ruled out for Friday with a concussion."

Keep reading to find out who else makes the cut on Wednesday!
