3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 1/23/17
Giannis Antetokounmpo, SG, Milwaukee Bucks
FanDuel Price: $10,600
Today's matchup between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Houston Rockets has a big 223 over/under -- the highest on the slate -- and should provide plenty of fantasy goodness on both sides.
The Bucks have been one of the league's slowest-paced teams over the past month, but they will be playing way up in pace today against the Rockets, who rank third in the league in pace this month. That means Bucks players will likely see more possessions than they usually do, giving an additional boost to their fantasy value.
Giannis Antetokounmpo has been an incredibly consistent fantasy producer, with at least 38 FanDuel points in each of his 14 healthy games over the past month (excluding a nine-minute game that he left early due to illness), and he combines that consistent floor with great upside, having topped 60 FanDuel points twice in that span.
The Rockets have also allowed top-10 fantasy production to opposing wing players this season, making this an especially good spot for Giannis.
