3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/16/17
Steph Curry has a 35.1% usage rate in 35.8 minutes per game since Kevin Durant went down and draws a great matchup tonight against Orlando. Which other high-priced NBA players should you target for Thursday's DFS contests?

Nikola Jokic, PF, Denver Nuggets

FanDuel Price: $10,600

Nikola Jokic saw fairly limited minutes on Sunday as the Denver Nuggets gave their backups plenty of run in a blowout win. He was still very efficient, though, producing 35.8 FanDuel points in only 24 minutes. He's averaged 1.4 FanDuel points per minute since the All-Star break, which ranks 5th among players who have seen at least 100 minutes of action since then.

He had played 30-plus minutes in 4 of his 6 games leading up to Sunday's blowout, and we're likely to see a close game on Thursday. The Nuggets are sitting as only 2.5-point underdogs against the Los Angeles Clippers, who will be on the road for the second half of a back-to-back.

Jokic should get plenty of run tonight.
