Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 3/21/17

Goran Dragic, PG, Miami Heat

FanDuel Price: $8,200

Goran Dragic continues to be one of the more underrated fantasy options on a nightly basis. While he isn't the flashiest of point guards, he does provide a solid floor, and in his last eight games, he has taken it up a notch.

Since March 3rd, the Miami Heat's point guard is averaging 20.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.8 steals per game. That includes a game in which he played only 17 minutes after being elbowed in the eye. During that almost three-week stretch, he has scored at least 30 fantasy points seven times with three games of 40-plus FanDuel points.

Overall, Dragic averaged 35.2 fantasy points per night in those games. With the game script he has in front of him on Tuesday, the point guard has a chance to pay off handsomely in DFS.

His opponent, the Phoenix Suns, plays at the third-fastest pace in the league and gives up over 112 points per game. That leads to the Heat having the second-highest implied total of the night at 114.0 points. With Dion Waiters sitting out, Dragic will likely be asked to do a bit more. When Waiters missed three games back in early February, Dragic saw his scoring increase by 2.0 points per game while his usage rate increase by 1.5% (up to 28.5%).

Dragic will also be having a bit of a revenge game as he spent parts of six season in Phoenix. In his only other meeting with the Suns this year, Dragic dropped 40.1 FanDuel points with 23 points and 9 assists.
