3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 1/31/17
James Harden, SG, Houston Rockets
FanDuel Price: $12,500
The Houston Rockets' matchup with the Sacramento Kings should be a good one for fantasy production, and it has the one of the highest over/unders on today's slate, while the Rockets currently boast Tuesdays highest implied total.
The Kings also own the league's worst defensive rating this month, which bodes well for Mike D'Antoni's squad.
James Harden has been playing a big role recently with a usage rate above 38.0% in each of his last three games. This has been going on all month, as his usage rate is currently sitting at 35.8% in 36.9 minutes per game in January. That's led to the Beard averaging 29.4 points, 10.6 assists and 8.2 rebounds per game.
That workload has him producing very consistent fantasy numbers, with 50-plus FanDuel points in 11 of his 16 games in January, and the Kings don't have a defense that's likely to slow him down.
