5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 3/23/18
Marcin Gortat, C, Washington Wizards
FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 19.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.54
Marcin Gortat will rarely wow you with his box score these days, but he's been rather dependable all season, with per-36 averages of 12.0 points, 10.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.1 blocks. Though Gortat's minutes have fluctuated, the Washington Wizards are now jockeying for playoff positioning, so they could call upon Gortat's services more as the regular season winds to a close.
Gortat is projected to provide the second-highest value among all centers on Friday night. Being matched up against the more traditional frontcourt of the Denver Nuggets -- including opposing center Nikola Jokic -- Gortat could see an uptick in minutes, and the production should follow.
