3 Daily Fantasy Basketball Value Plays for 4/26/17

Gerald Green, SG, Boston Celtics

FanDuel Price: $3,100
Projected FanDuel Points: 12.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.06

After giving him just six minutes in the first two games of the series, the Boston Celtics shook up things in Game 3, inserting Gerald Green into the starting lineup for Amir Johnson. The small-ball lineup helped Boston jump out to an early lead and grab their first win of the series, but Green wasn't productive in his 20 minutes of playing time.

Game 4 was a different story. Green came out firing in another near must-win game for the Celtics, taking the second-most shots on the team (13) and tying Isaiah Thomas for the team lead in three-point attempts (9). The result was 18 points, 25.4 FanDuel points, and perhaps most importantly, a spark for the Celtics, which may keep him in the starting five for tonight's pivotal Game 5.

Green is a streaky, scoring-dependent player, so don't assume he is a lock for 25-plus FanDuel points again tonight. However, at his price tag, he only needs 15.5 FanDuel points to reach five-times his salary implied total. He is a terrific tournament play and a fringe cash game consideration, if you're into that sort of thing on two-game slates.
