Bam Adebayo, C, Miami Heat

FanDuel Price: $3,800
Projected FanDuel Points: 25.1
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.61

The Miami Heat have ruled out Hassan Whiteside (knee) for Monday night, so we should see Bam Adebayo make his first start of the 2018-19 season. The second-year man made 19 starts last year and averaged 19.8 FanDuel points in 24.9 minutes, and in 145 minutes this season, he's averaged 0.92 FanDuel points per minute, according to NBA Wowy.

Whiteside's injury limited him to 16 minutes on Saturday, allowing Adebayo to play 30 minutes, which he turned into 20.4 FanDuel points despite just two points on two shots. He averaged 7.4 points as a starter last year, so the peripherals only boost his floor and ceiling.

Andre Drummond and the Detroit Pistons await him, but they're still giving up 51.35 FanDuel points per game to centers. If Adebayo gets 30-plus minutes, six-times value is in the cards without a doubt.
