Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 2/2/17
Blake Griffin, PF, Los Angeles Clippers
FanDuel Price: $9,200
Blake Griffin appears to be back at full strength after an extended absence, posting 49.1 FanDuel points in 34 minutes of action last night against the Phoenix Suns. He's shooting an absurd 68 percent from the field over the past two games, including a matchup against the very Golden State Warriors he faces tonight, whom he scored 20 points against in just 23 minutes of playing time.
This game has the highest over/under on the slate (226.5 points), and despite a seemingly large 8-point spread, it is actually expected to be the most competitive game tonight. Los Angeles is projected for 109.25 points, which is the fifth-highest implied team total on the slate.
A look at the RotoViz Game Splits App shows that Griffin has thrived in scenarios similar to this over the past few years. He's played in only three games with an over/under above 220, but in games with an over/under of at least 215 over the past three seasons, he has averaged 43.2 FanDuel points, as opposed to 38.9 in all other games. In games the Los Angeles Clippers have had an implied team total of at least 108 points, he has averaged 41.2 FanDuel points.
Assuming there aren't any limitations for Griffin on the back end of a back to back, he profiles as one of the best plays on the board tonight. If this game script holds up, he should be in store for a monster performance.
