5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 3/27/18

Patty Mills, PG, San Antonio Spurs

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 22.2
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.15

As the San Antonio Spurs continue to wait on the potential return of Kawhi Leonard, they'll rely on others to step up and provide offensive production in his stead. While LaMarcus Aldridge is undoubtedly the offensive focal point, guys like Patty Mills have been really good in recent games.

Over the past five games, Mills is averaging 12.0 points, 3.2 assists and 2.0 rebounds across 33.7 minutes per night. That includes 2.0 three-point makes on 5.8 attempts, which, over that span, trails only Danny Green among all Spurs. Mills' uptick in minutes and volume have translated to an average of 21.0 FanDuel points per game across his last five (3.9 above his season average) despite a nearly nonexistent 6.0-FanDuel-point performance against the Milwaukee Bucks in that span.

Tonight's matchup with the Washington Wizards doesn't present giant upside. On the road, the Spurs have an implied total of 101.75, which ranks 12th of the 16 teams on Tuesday's slate. But given Mills' role and recent play, he's a solid budget play as a top-five point-per-dollar guy at his position, per our projections.
