Mario Hezonja, SG, New York Knicks

FanDuel Price: $4,400
Projected FanDuel Points: 24.2
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.50

Sick of the Knicks yet? That's one thing you have in common with Kristaps Porzingis (Zing!).

Even if it's Trier moving into the starting lineup, there are enough backcourt minutes vacated by Hardaway that Mario Hezonja stands to see a big bump as well. His efficiency gets a big boost without Hardaway, going from 0.73 fantasy points per minute with him on the floor to 0.89 with Hardaway off. He's already been within 0.1 fantasy points of 5-times value on today's salary in two of his last three and six of his last nine games, with 7-times value in three of those nine.

Again, the matchup with the Celtics isn't great and should cause his efficiency to take a hit, but like with Knox and Trier, the potential for expanded minutes more than makes up for that.
