Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail Blazers

FanDuel Price: $8,900

It's probably safe to assume Damian Lillard isn't suffering any lingering issues from the ankle injury that forced him to miss five games in December, as he has played 35.9 and 43.5 minutes in his two games since returning to the Portland Trail Blazers' lineup.

Lillard is averaging a career-high 40.9 FanDuel points per game this season, and he's playing 36.0 minutes per game with a 30.8% usage rate -- not quite elite numbers but still very solid.

He shouldn't have much trouble beating those numbers tonight in a sweet matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers play with a top-five pace, rank in the bottom three in defensive rating and have allowed top-five fantasy production to point guards this season, putting Lillard in a great spot to turn his huge workload into fantasy points.
