Unlike Nwaba, Montrezl Harrell is a tournament-play only on Thursday. With the obvious values at other positions, power forward could be a place to pay up for a Ben Simmons ($9,000) or Draymond Green ($8,600). But Harrell makes for an under-the-radar pivot as the Los Angeles Clippers do battle with the Golden State Warriors.
The game script could set up nicely for Harrell. As a traditional big, DeAndre Jordan could be phased out of this one if the Warriors go small for the majority of the game. If that's the case, Harrell would be asked to match up with Green, but even if he isn't, a blowout could benefit him all the same. Coming off the break, the Warriors are 11.0-point favorites at home, and the Clippers might not be at full strength on the wing.
In the event the Warriors run away with this one, Harrell could see 25-plus minutes, and some serious upside could accompany that. Despite Draymond's presence, the Warriors are allowing 48.1 FanDuel points per game to power forwards over their last 10. And it's in a limited sample-size (22 minutes), but Harrell's increased his per-minute fantasy production to 1.65 FanDuel points per minute since Tobias Harris and company joined the squad (per NBA Wowy).
