5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 3/2/18
The Clippers are expected to be one of the night's highest-scoring teams, with Milos Teodosic in line to reap the benefits. Which other players make for intriguing plays at sub-$5,000 salaries?

Marvin Williams, PF, Charlotte Hornets

FanDuel Price: $3,800
Projected FanDuel Points: 19.9
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.24

In a vacuum, there isn't much to love about Marvin Williams. He plays a key part in the Hornets' starting lineup, but he's averaging only 25.9 minutes per game. And over the last five, he's down to 24.7 minutes, which helps to explain his sub-$4K price tag.

At this moment in time, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is listed as questionable to play Friday. He suffered a hamstring injury two games ago and could certainly be sidelined once again tonight. That could mean more minutes and production from Williams. In the eight games MKG's missed to date, Williams is playing 28.1 minutes and he's averaged 0.66 FanDuel points, according to NBAWowy.

The efficiency doesn't bring a ceiling for tournaments. The minutes are there for cash games, though. And, against the 76ers and forwards like Dario Saric and Ben Simmons, Williams should be a lock for big minutes in a close (4-point spread) game.
