Dragan Bender, PF, Phoenix Suns

FanDuel Price: $4,600
Projected FanDuel Points: 20.3
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.42

Phoenix Suns big Dragan Bender's value tonight is predicated on the absence of two of his teammates: Deandre Ayton and Richaun Holmes.

Ayton and Holmes have each missed the past two games, Ayton with an ankle injury and Holmes with a sprained foot. Neither practiced on Wednesday, and both are questionable for tonight. Even if one of the two is able to take the court, Bender's value could remain strong as T.J. Warren has already been ruled out for tonight's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Bender has worked his way to double-doubles in each of the past two games, allowing him to finish with 29.0 and 27.0 FanDuel points over the last two. While our models don't have Bender projected for quite that level of output tonight, that could change if Holmes and/or Ayton is ruled out. For now, we have him projected for 20.3 FanDuel points, a value of 4.42 points per $1,000.
