3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/10/17
Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors
FanDuel Price: $10,200
Stephen Curry hasn't seen the big jump in fantasy value that it seemed like he would get with Kevin Durant out of the lineup. However, he has seen his minutes jump from 33.4 per game to 35.4 per game and his usage rate from 29.3% to 32.5% in games with Durant in the lineup compared to the five Curry has played without Durant this season.
Curry has only shot 42.5% from the field and 31.2% from three-point range in his four games since Durant went down, compared to marks of 46.3% and 39.7% on the season. While part of the decrease may be attributable to the fact that he might not get quite as good looks without Durant on the floor, he topped those marks in each of the last three seasons before Durant joined the Warriors, and we can expect Curry to bounce back a bit moving forward.
Those recent struggles have kept Curry's price-tag low, but that increased workload gives him a ton of upside, and he is an especially strong play in tournaments.
