#2 Ola Kamara– $7.6 M – Average Points: 4.8

Ola Kamara is a great MLS fantasy value pick-up at the striker position.

D.C. United will be up against Inter Miami for the second match week in a row. Kamara scored two goals in the first battle between these two sides and tallied a “hockey assist” in the 3-0 victory.

The game against Inter Miami was Kamara’s first start since recovering from an injury that caused him to miss United’s first three games of the season. However, he has proven he is match fit and able to play a productive full 90 minutes.

Expect him to have more breakout games this season and be D.C. United main offensive target in the upcoming games.

Kamara is currently only owned by1.15% of all MLS fantasy managers.
