Allen Crabbe, SF, Brooklyn Nets

FanDuel Price: $4,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 21.7
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.83

Allen Crabbe hasn't been very consistent so far this season. He's dealt with injuries and inconsistent minutes in a crowded Nets frontcourt, but he's coming off a nice game Wednesday where he went for 14 points and 23 FanDuel points against the Philadelphia 76ers.

His opponent, the Los Angeles Lakers, rank 29th on the year against the small forward position. Their up-tempo pace (100.9 possessions per 48 minutes) and middle-of-the-road defense (107.8 points allowed per 100 possessions) have provided opponents with a golden opportunity for fantasy production. Take Crabbe's last game against them as an example -- in 29-plus minutes, he hit 6-of-12 shots for 25 points and 31.7 FanDuel points.

On Friday, the Brooklyn Nets' implied total of 109.5 points places them in a tie for third on the slate. In the two teams' only other matchup of the season, the Nets scored 112 points as they combined for 236 points. There's no reason to believe this game will be any different.
