3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/2/17
Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail Blazers
Price: $9,800
A matchup that's good for Portland Trail Blazers guards obviously means this is also a great spot for Damian Lillard, even on the second half of a back-to-back.
Dame D.O.L.L.A. is playing his usual huge role in the offense this year, with a 30.7% usage rate and 30.1% assist rate in 36.3 minutes per game. He's putting up nightly numbers of 25.4 points, 6.0 assists, and 5.4 boards.
He also stands to see an increase in offensive efficiency moving forward, as he's only shooting a .475 effective field goal percentage to start the year, compared to a .516 last season and .505 career-average. When his numbers over a small eight-game sample are so far off from what we're used to seeing from him, it's safe to expect positive regression.
