This article is part of our FanDuel NBA series.
After three straight days with seven games, the NBA steps up the schedule Wednesday with 10 games on the docket. The increased amount of games leaves plenty of opportunities for lineup combinations on FanDuel, so let's dive right in and look at some value plays that could help put your squad over the top.
Point Guard
Matthew Dellavedova, $4,200, CLE: Dellavedova averaged 19.0 minutes a game for the first two contests this season, but has since averaged 30.5 minutes in his last two games. His increased playing time has led to increased production as he has posted at least 28.0 FanDuel points in both of the last two games. Wednesday brings him a favorable matchup at home against the Knicks, making him a nice value option.
Shooting Guard
Kent Bazemore, $4,700, ATL: I'm going to the well again with Bazemore as he didn't disappoint Tuesday by posting 20.5 FanDuel points against the Heat. You can't expect big production when spending this little on a player, so anything over 20 points has to be considered a win. The Hawks have a favorable matchup at home Wednesday against the Nets, so don't overlook Bazemore.
Evan Fournier, $4,500, ORL: Fournier exploded Tuesday against the Pelicans by scoring 30 points to go along with five rebounds, four assists and two steals in 43 minutes. It's important to note that Fournier has played at least 35 minutes in each of his last three games, resulting in no fewer than 27.0 FanDuel points in any of those contests. He might not last at this price point for much longer, so take advantage while you still can.
Small Forward
Al-Farouq Aminu, $5,700, POR: Aminu continues to fly under the radar on a bad Portland squad, but daily owners shouldn't overlook his production. He has played at least 31 minutes in all four games this season and has produced at least 26.0 FanDuel points in each of his last three games. Known for his defensive abilities, Aminu has taken on a scoring role by averaging 16.3 points over his last three games. The price is right to consider Aminu again Wednesday against the Jazz.
Harrison Barnes, $4,800, GS: Like Bazemore, Barnes doesn't usually disappoint when considering how little he will cost to be a member of your lineup. Even though he is not a focal point of the Warriors talented roster, he has been able to post at least 21.0 FanDuel points in three of four games this season. Being able to book almost 20 points for this cheap can go a long way to a winning night.
Power Forward
Markieff Morris, $5,900, PHO: Morris has been playing well of late as he has averaged 15.7 points and 8.3 rebounds over his last three games. The Suns are playing the Kings at home Wednesday and don't be surprised if the Kings try to play Rudy Gay at power forward for parts of this game with DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) out of action, leaving Morris with a nice matchup. Morris has recorded at least 28.3 FanDuel points in each of his last three games and it's fair to expect similar production from him in this contest.
Thaddeus Young, $5,500, BKN: Young had a rough start to the season, but has rebounded nicely by averaging 12.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.0 steals in his last two games. Having a player like Young is intriguing because he can provide value even if his shot isn't falling because of his ability to contribute in other categories. By posting at least 28.7 FanDuel points in both of his last two games, he makes for an intriguing play Wednesday on the road against the Hawks.
Center
Robin Lopez, $4,500, NYK: Lopez is not an offensive juggernaut by any stretch of the imagination, but he has been solid by averaging 11.0 points a game this season. Although he is not logging heavy minutes, he has still managed to produce at least 21.3 FanDuel points in each of his last three games. Don't expect him to give you big production at a discount price, but he still can provide value.
