Kevin Durant, SF, Golden State Warriors

Price: $11,000

Kevin Durant's price-tag has climbed significantly, but he's still cheap enough to offer a ton of fantasy appeal with Stephen Curry (ankle) on the shelf.

Excluding a game in which he was ejected in the first half, and including a game that Curry left after playing only 2 minutes, Durant has topped 55 FanDuel points in five of his last seven games without Curry. His 56.6 FanDuel points per game are right in line with his season average (53.8) sans Curry as well.

KD has also seen his usage rate jump from 26.6% to 34.1% and his FanDuel points per minute increase from 1.29 to 1.49 in minutes with Curry off the floor this season.

We don't get to be especially picky about matchups on a short six-game slate like tonight's, so even in a middling spot against the Indiana Pacers, playing without Curry leaves Durant as a top play in all formats.
