Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 2/2/17
Dennis Schroder, PG, Atlanta Hawks
FanDuel Price: $6,700
Despite being listed as heavy underdogs against the Houston Rockets, the Atlanta Hawks are still expected to exceed their season scoring average by nearly three points. They have an implied team total of 107.25 points in the game with the second-highest over/under on the slate (223.5 points).
Dennis Schroder has seen big improvements in his numbers when playing in shootouts this season. He hasn't played in any games with an over/under this high, but in games with an over/under above 215, he has averaged 36.2 FanDuel points, as opposed to 28.8 in all other games. In games the Hawks have been projected for at least 105 points, he has averaged 31.8 FanDuel points.
A look at his past performances would suggest that Schroder will thrive if game script holds up and Atlanta is able to keep this game competitive.
