3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/28/18
Lonzo Ball, PG, Los Angeles Lakers
Price: $8,600
Having played at least 42 minutes in each of his last three games, Lonzo Ball is averaging 40.6 minutes per game over the last seven. Even with Brandon Ingram (groin) questionable to return tonight, there should still be plenty of minutes available. The Los Angeles Lakers will likely ease Ingram back into action, with no incentive to rush him as they play for lottery odds. LA will also be without Isaiah Thomas (hip) again, leaving Ball likely to play as many minutes as he can handle at this point.
Even at a higher price point, Ball is easy to like when he's playing 40-plus minutes. He has been very efficient, boasting an average of 1.00 FanDuel point per minute on the year. And he stands to see a nice bump in efficiency as he opposes the Dallas Mavericks.
The Mavs have allowed the sixth-most FanDuel points per game to opposing point guards this season, which makes this a great spot for Ball to continue turning his absurd minutes into strong fantasy production tonight.
