5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays for 1/2/18
The Kings could be really depleted tonight in the backcourt, which would make George Hill a smashing value. Where else can we find salary relief on Tuesday's slate?

Jae Crowder, PF, Cleveland Cavaliers

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 16.0
Projected FanDuel Value: 3.71

Jae Crowder hasn't gotten off to a great start with his new team. Averaging 26 minutes per game, he's scoring just 8.6 real-world points per game on an effective field goal percentage of 48.3%, including 31.8% from downtown.

With Crowder's struggles, he's averaged a mere 15.8 FanDuel points per night after accounting for 27.0 per game with the Boston Celtics a year ago. Lately, he's shown signs of his former self, though. In the last five, he's hit at least 22.2 FanDuel points on three occasions despite continued struggles from the field (40%).

It's been the peripheral stats that have helped Crowder to become a fantasy-relevant figure. In addition to 4.6 boards a night, Crowder has yielded 1.2 steals and 1.0 assists. If he sees the same 28-plus minutes he's been getting, the opportunity is there with Cleveland expected to tally 110.25 points against the Portland Trail Blazers.
