5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 3/21/18
With Hassan Whiteside set to sit out a sixth straight game, is Bam Adebayo a must-play Wednesday against the Knicks?

E'Twaun Moore, SF, New Orleans Pelicans

FanDuel Price: $4,400
Projected FanDuel Points: 20.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.65

The New Orleans Pelicans have recently added some depth in the form of a healthy Solomon Hill. After missing the majority of the season recovering from hamstring surgery, Hill's returned to play in New Orleans' last two games, albeit in a limited capacity. If his limitations are any indication, he could be sidelined for the second half of the back-to-back tonight, meaning more minutes for E'Twaun Moore on the wing.

On Tuesday, Jrue Holiday sat, so Moore wasn't as impacted by Hill's minutes. Either way, Moore should be in for around 30 minutes a game, given his play of late. While Moore has averaged 20.9 FanDuel points with 12.2 points on 49.9% shooting on the year, he's gone for an average of 22 FanDuel points with 12 points on 46.5% shooting over the last five. But it's been the peripherals that have made Moore a solid fantasy play. He has four games of at least three rebounds and three straight of at least four assists. For a guy averaging below three in each category, that's a big boost.

The Indiana Pacers don't provide much of a boost to small forwards, ranking in the top-10 against them this season. But you're not in search of big points from a guy like Moore. He's someone you're looking to reach value and allow you to roster someone like his teammate, Anthony Davis. In fact, stacking the two would be a unique way to construct your lineup on Wednesday night.
