5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays for 12/27/17

Josh Hart, SG, Los Angeles Lakers

FanDuel Price: $4,400
Projected FanDuel Points: 22.8
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.19

Josh Hart's usability really depends on the status of Brandon Ingram. Ingram sat out for the Lakers on Monday night, and Hart drew the start in his place, but Ingram practiced in full on Tuesday and is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. If he's back in there, Hart could be limited to 20 or so minutes off the bench, even though his play has warranted more playing time of late.

In the last two games, Hart has played an average of 36.7 minutes with 11.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 2.5 assists a night. His production -- including a steal in each game -- returned 29.5 and 24.2 FanDuel points, respectively. His play was good enough for seven-times and six-times value at his low price. But that's nothing new with the rookie.

Hart has played at least 20 or more minutes in seven games, and when he's done so, he's reached 22.8 FanDuel points and six-time value in all but one. The guy's just a flat-out producer -- it's just a matter of whether or not he gets the opportunity in this evening's tilt.
