Ryan Anderson doesn't play on the wing for Houston, but he should benefit from the two aforementioned suspensions. There's now two less guys to spot up around Chris Paul and James Harden. And of Anderson, Tucker and Mbah a Moute, Anderson's 2.2 threes and 37.2% shooting tell us that he's -- by far -- the best available long-range shooter of the trio.

It seems like his skill set has helped him to be more productive with Green and Ariza off the floor. Absent those two, Anderson averages 0.89 FanDuel points per minute, compared to just 0.68 with them on the court. Combine that with a projected 28.9 minutes, per our models, and Anderson should pay off his price.

But there's even more reason to like the sharpshooter in this one. In Thursday's home matchup with Minnesota, the Rockets boast an opening implied total of 113.75 points as a 5-point favorite, per Vegas Insider. There will be opportunities to go around for the Houston offense.
