There are 10 games on the NBA schedule for Wednesday, and DFS players will be happy to see shootout potential littered throughout. Of those 10 games, six opened with an over/under of at least 215 points (team's rank in possessions per 100 minutes in parenthesis): Denver (5) vs. Brooklyn (2), Cleveland (11) vs. New York (16), LA Lakers (7) vs. Houston (12), Portland (8) vs. Milwaukee (14), Indiana (9) vs. Phoenix (1), and, closing out the night with arguably the game of the season thus far, Golden State (3) vs. LA Clippers (19). A logical argument can be made for stacking any one of those six contests, though I'm opting to spread out my exposure to each of them the best I can. With that in mind, you can click through the gallery for a closer look at my ideal DraftKings lineup for Wednesday, December 7. (Getty)

PG: Eric Bledsoe, Phoenix Suns
Opponent: vs. Indiana Pacers
Price: $7,400
Not only is the matchup ripe for the picking, as the Pacers give up the seventh most DraftKings points per game to point guards, but Bledsoe enters on fire. He has hit 50 DK points in four of his last six games, averaging a robust 23.7 points, 2.5 threes, 6.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks during that stretch. With so many other stud point guards in action--James Harden Giannis Antetokounmpo, Chris Paul, Damian Lillard, Steph Curry--this makes for a nice contrarian pick with immense upside. (Getty)

SG: Will Barton, Denver Nuggets
Opponent: at Brooklyn Nets
Price: $6,200
High-usage players in up-tempo games for under $7,000. That's the dream. And that's what Barton represents. Brooklyn is second in the NBA in pace (103.86 possessions per 100), and Denver is fifth (101.52), so this should be an all-out track-meet, while Barton is averaging 19.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 16.0 field-goal attempts with a team-high usage percentage of 26.6 since returning from his injury three games ago. His price is quickly rising, but in this ideal matchup, he can still provide great value. (Getty)

SF: LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
Opponent: at New York Knicks
Price: $9,900
If there's one thing LeBron loves, it's playing at Madison Square Garden. Not only is he the only visiting player to record multiple 50-point games and multiple triple-doubles there, but he's also averaging 26.13 points, 7.13 rebounds, 7.63 assists, 2.13 steals and 1.0 blocks in his last eight games at the Mecca of Basketball. Throw in the fact that New York is on the second game of a back-to-back, and LeBron is in line for a monster game. And if you believe the narrative that he'll be out to destroy Phil Jackson, for whom LeBron has not hidden his disdain, then that improves his outlook even more. (Getty)

PF: Paul George, Indiana Pacers
Opponent: at Phoenix Suns
Price: $7,800
The Suns are first in the NBA in pace and 21st in defensive rating. They've given up at least 100 points in 18 of 20 games this season and have allowed an average of 117.25 points on the second night of back-to-backs, which this game will be. All Pacers are in play here, but George is by far the most trustworthy. In two games since returning from his injury, he has averaged 18.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 39.63 DraftKings points in matchups far more difficult than this one (Clippers and Warriors), so don't be surprised if he has a monster night against the hapless Suns.

C: Salah Mejri, Dallas Mavericks
Opponent: vs. Sacramento Kings
Price: $3,600
Andrew Bogut is out, and in the four games he has missed this season, Mejri has averaged 21.78 minutes, 8.5 points, 8.25 rebounds, 1.25 steals and 0.5 blocks. If you look at the two of those games in which he started, the averages jump up to 29.85 minutes, 10.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1.0 blocks. Those are obviously small sample sizes, but he seems to carve out a decent role whenever Bogut is sidelined, and his ability to get rebounds and defensive stats gives him a good chance of hitting value at such a minimal price.

G: Eric Gordon, Houston Rockets
Opponent: vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Price: $5,300
One of the best sixth men in the NBA, Gordon is instant offense off the bench for this up-tempo Rockets squad. Over the last six games, he has attempted double-digit field goals and at least eight three-pointers in each of them, averaging 20.67 points and 30.71 DraftKings points per contest. Making matters even better for Wednesday night, the Lakers, who are hurting for backcourt depth thanks to a slew of injuries, have given up some big games to bench guards lately: 14 points and four assists to Cory Joseph, 31 points and six threes to Troy Daniels, and 10 points and seven assists to Shelvin Mack. Expect Gordon to continue that trend. (Getty)

F: Maurice Harkless, Portland Trail Blazers
Opponent: at Milwaukee Bucks
Price: $5,100
It's rare to see this kind of consistency at this low of a price. Harkless, who scores, hits threes, rebounds and can rack up the defensive stats, has hit at least 27.0 DraftKings points in seven games, and the return of Al-Farouq Aminu didn't hurt him on Wednesday, as he still produced 11 points, eight rebounds, a steal and a block. With many other high-upside players in our lineup, we just need him to keep doing what he's been doing all year. (Getty)

UTIL: Brandon Ingram, Los Angeles Lakers
Opponent: at Houston Rockets
Price: $4,500
With D'Angelo Russell, Nick Young and Jose Calderon out, Ingram got his first career start at point guard on Monday but disappointed to the tune of 25 minutes, four points, two rebounds and two assists. Don't worry about that, though. It was against one of the best defenses in the NBA, and he struggled with foul trouble. He was averaging 35.3 minutes, 10.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in the previous seven games, and he should bounce back against the team with the fifth-worst defensive rating in the league. And for $4,500, there's minimal risk. (Getty)
