Markieff Morris, PF, Washington Wizards

FanDuel Price: $4,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 22.4
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.97

If the last six games are any indication, Markieff Morris might be as close to 100% as he's been all year. In four of those games, he's scored in double-digits and knocked down a three. Over that same span, he's shooting 54% from the floor and a very nice 50% from three. He's also grabbed at least four boards in all but one while contributing a little more than an assist in 25.2 minutes a game.

Those numbers aren't mind-blowing, but Morris' price doesn't require him to be mind-blowing. Really, we're just looking for him to play around 25-to-29 minutes of efficient basketball -- and he's shown that he can do that.

Tonight, he travels with the Wizards to face the Atlanta Hawks, who rank near or at the very bottom of the league in basically all rebounding categories. Combine that with their league-worst 111.6 defensive rating and you get a prime spot for a guy looking to do damage in fewer than 30 minutes.
