This Market Advantage column aims to discover players whose respective salaries are too low considering their expected production. This can obviously change from site-to-site, so I will outline the respective site featured that particular player's discount. The sites featured in today's column are FanDuel, DraftKings, and DraftDay.

However, just because a player is well-priced, it doesn't mean you should automatically click them into a lineup. Due to this, a label will be attached to every player (red/yellow/green light) assessing their viability for tonight's game.

So with that, here are the most favorably priced players in the Daily Fantasy Market for Saturday, March 21:

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope – SG – DET: (FanDuel $4,900) ($4,500) GREEN LIGHT

KCP is always a risky DFS proposition, but you can take comfort in his heavy playing time, especially consider the lack of SG value in this short slate. He has eclipsed fantasy value in 4 of his last 6 games, and the matchup against a hobbled Chicago backcourt isn't bad.


Tony Allen – SG – MEM: (FanDuel $4,700) (DraftKings $4,500) GREEN LIGHT

Tony Allen is a safe cash game play, especially considering how Portland ranks dead last in D-eff vs SG's since Wes Matthews' injury.


Trevor Ariza – SF – HOU: (FanDuel $5,900) GREEN LIGHT

Love his price point on FanDuel – he is $6,300 on DraftKings for comparison's sake. Ariza has eclipsed 30+ FP in 5 of the last 6 games, and he's taking on a Phoenix team that ranks dead last in D-eff vs SF's. He's a fantastic play tonight.


Donatas Motiejunas – PF- HOU: (FanDuel $5,600) (DraftKings $5,600) GREEN LIGHT

D-Mo has been logging heavy minutes for Houston, seeing much more playing time than Josh Smith. He seems locked into a full complement of starter's minutes, which sets up well in a fast paced matchup vs Phoenix.


Rudy Gobert – C – UTA: (FanDuel $7,900) ($12,550) GREEN LIGHT

Gobert had a down performance last time around, but I highly doubt it will carry over at all. His price is depressed on FanDuel and DraftDay because of it, and he's playable in all formats on those two sites.


Brandan Wright – C – PHX: (FanDuel $5,600) GREEN LIGHT

If Alex Len is out, Wright will likely see another 30+ minutes. Even though the price point has jumped dramatically, he's still underpriced considering a full complement of playing time. Wright has always been an efficient FP/min producer, so the last two games were not a fluke.


Marc Gasol – C – MEM: (DraftKings $7,500) GREEN LIGHT

Gasol is a solid cash game play across the industry, but his price point is marginally better on DraftKings than anywhere else.


James Harden – SG – HOU: (DraftDay $19,650) GREEN LIGHT

For some reason, Harden is below $20,000 on DraftDay for the first time in a while. Ironically, it comes right after he posts one of his best games of the season. He's priced comparably to Stephen Curry on DD, making him an easy pick.


Reggie Jackson – PG – DET: (DraftDay $12,300) (DraftKings $6,900) GREEN LIGHT

The price is starting to creep up, but RJax is still playable across the board in a friendly matchup vs Chicago's beat up backcourt.


Marcus Morris – PF – PHX: (DraftDay $8,900) (DraftKings $5,300) (FanDuel $5,200) GREEN LIGHT

If Brandon Knight is out, it's time to lock and load Marcus once again. He's seeing heavy (36-40 minutes) playing time as a starter, and the salary level hasn't completely offset that difference.


Joe Johnson – SG – BKN: (FanDuel $5,400) (DraftKings $5,200) YELLOW LIGHT

I really love the price point for Johnson, but it's difficult to recommend him after logging heavy minutes last night (48). There will be a time to buy low with Joe, but I'm not sure a tough matchup on the second half of a b2b is it.


Thaddeus Young – PF – BKN: (FanDuel $5,800) YELLOW LIGHT

Similar sentiment to Joe Johnson above. Brooklyn will assuredly be running on tired legs today, especially Young, who logged 53 minutes last night.


LaMarcus Aldridge – PF – POR: (DraftKings $8,900) YELLOW LIGHT

Yesterday, I pointed out the pricing discrepancy for Aldridge between FanDuel and DraftKings. That discount in still present, but the matchup is much more difficult.


Brook Lopez – C – BKN: (DraftKings $6,400) YELLOW LIGHT

See Joe Johnson and Thaddeus Young above.
