3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/2/17
Playing huge minutes this season, Kevin Durant offers a ton of fantasy value against the Spurs. What other high-priced players should you target in daily fantasy on Thursday?

C.J. McCollum, SG, Portland Trail Blazers

Price: $8,000

$8,000 is a bit of a stretch for "stud," but on tonight's two-game slate, we don't have a ton of high-priced options at our disposal.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been a great fantasy matchup this season despite their strong defensive rating. They're playing at a top-5 pace, and are allowing top-10 fantasy numbers to opponents at both guard positions.

Relying primarily on scoring, C.J. McCollum tends to be a fairly volatile fantasy producer, but his offensive prowess does give him a ton of upside. He's averaging 30.3 points per 100 possessions this year while also getting to the free throw line at the highest rate of his career (5.9 free throw attempts per 100 possessions).

With the Lakers allowing those big fantasy numbers to guards and playing at such a high pace, McCollum's ceiling is massive.
