FanDuel NBA: Wednesday Value Plays

FanDuel NBA: Wednesday Value Plays

This article is part of our FanDuel NBA series.

Wednesday's schedule in the NBA is packed with 10 games to be played. Lots of games means lots of different lineup possibilities on FanDuel, so here are some bargain plays you might want to consider.

Point Guard
Cory Joseph, $4,400, TOR:
Joseph might be playing with extra motivation Wednesday as the Raptors will play his old team the Spurs. Joseph has been a key member off the bench for the Raptors and has played at least 30 minutes in five of his last six games. He has recorded at least 20.5 FanDuel points in five of his last six games as well, making him a solid option at this price.

Patrick Beverley, $4,100, HOU: I recommended Beverley Tuesday against the Nets and he didn't disappoint with 22.5 FanDuel points. He continues to provide tremendous value defensively by combining for 17 steals over his last seven games. While a huge night is unlikely, he does have good value at this price Wednesday against the Wizards.

Shooting Guard
Gary Neal, $4,100, WAS:
Neal can pack a punch off of the bench for the Wizards and he has done just that by scoring at least 18 points in both of his last two games. He has been solid on the glass and distributing the ball as well, resulting in at least 26.1 FanDuel points in both of those games. The price is right to take a chance on Neal Wednesday against the Rockets.

Small Forward
Jae Crowder, $5,200, BOS:
Crowder plays a lot for the Celtics as he has played at least 31 minutes in each of his last five games. Although his ceiling isn't crazy high, his floor is relatively high as he has posted at least 21.7 FanDuel points in each of his last seven games. Look for him to be solid yet again Wednesday against the Bulls.

Power Forward
Jared Sullinger, $6,000, BOS:
When in doubt, play a big man against the Bulls as they just don't seem to defend well against power forwards and centers. Enter Sullinger, who produced 36.5 FanDuel points Monday against the Pelicans. Sullinger is not only a good rebounder, but he provides defensive numbers as well as he has recorded at least one block or steal in each of his last seven games. This is a favorable matchup at home, making him worth this price.

Cody Zeller, $4,000, CHA: Zeller has stepped up with Al Jefferson (calf) out of action by posting at least 29.7 FanDuel points in both of his last two games. Not only can he score and rebound, but he can contribute defensively - as he combined for three blocks and one steal in those two games. Consider playing Zeller Wednesday against the Heat at this cheap price.

Center
Gorgui Dieng, $4,600, MIN:
Dieng has seen consistent playing time of late and has rewarded those who have played him in daily of late by posting at least 20.5 FanDuel points in each of his last seven games. He has seen his role decrease some this year with the addition of Karl-Anthony Towns, but it's hard to keep him on the bench with the kind of talent that he has. He gets a nice matchup Wednesday against the Lakers and should likely have a successful night based on his price.
