T.J. McConnell, PG, Philadelphia 76ers

FanDuel Price: $3,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 31.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 9.01

If you are looking at players at the minimum and in line for heavy minutes tonight, look no further than the Philadelphia 76ers. Locked into the 3 seed in the Eastern Conference, the club has ruled out four of their five starters (all but Jimmy Butler) for Wednesday’s regular-season finale. That opens up plenty of value starting with T.J. McConnell.

McConnell is no stranger to big DFS games this season, as the point guard posted four games with at least 29.9 FanDuel points. The common theme in those games has been plenty of minutes; he played at least 28 minutes in each of those big performances. In fact, in the 12 games McConnell has played at least 28 minutes this season, he has collected at least 20 FanDuel points 10 times.

For the season, he is posting an efficient 0.85 FanDuel points per minute. If he can play at least 20.6 minutes tonight -- which he is a lock to do with Ben Simmons out -- McConnell will easily reach ideal value against the soft Chicago Bulls D on Wednesday.
