Goran Dragic, PG, Miami Heat
FanDuel Price: $4,100
Projected FanDuel Points: 26.3
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.41
It looks like the Goran Dragic we all know and love is close to being back to full strength. After receiving no more than 20 minutes in his previous four games, Dragic scored 19 points with 26.4 FanDuel points in 27 minutes of run in yesterday's 93-75 win over the Charlotte Hornets.
The back-to-back could be an issue here, when the Miami Heat take the court against the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight, but Dragic has already played in one back-to-back since returning from injury, which should quell such fears.
They could certainly use him. At 33-36, the Heat are holding on to just a one-game lead over the Orlando Magic for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. That might as well be nothing with 13 games still to play, so the Heat will need all the help they can get, especially in a game they are projected to lose by five points, even without Russell Westbrook taking the court.
We project Dragic to once again see strong usage. We have him pegged for 26.3 FanDuel points in 26.4 minutes of playing time.
