Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 1/26/17

Eric Bledsoe, PG, Phoenix Suns

FanDuel Price: $9,700

Eric Bledsoe and the Phoenix Suns will take on the Denver Nuggets tonight in a game featuring two teams in the top five in pace and bottom six in defensive efficiency. As a result, Vegas sees this one being very high-scoring, projecting it for a slate-leading 229-point over/under. Phoenix is listed as a 7-point road underdog, but their implied team total of 111 is still the second-highest on this small slate.

Per the RotoViz Game Splits App, Bledsoe has thrived in high-scoring games. In 49 career games played with at least a 110-point implied team total, he has averaged 33.71 FanDuel points, as opposed to 23.61 in all other games.

He's averaged 43.1 FanDuel points in the only two games he's played in with at least a 229-point over/under, a number which stayed fairly consistent when expanding the range for a larger sample size. In games with an over/under of over 220 points, he has averaged 41.1 FanDuel points.

In addition to a beautiful game script, Bledsoe should feast on the defense of the Nuggets, who rank second to last in defensive efficiency and have allowed the second-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards. His price tag has really risen due to his recent hot streak, but on paper, Bledsoe appears to be worth every penny.
