3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 4/10/18

James Harden, SG, Houston Rockets

Price: $11,300

James Harden is a risky play, as the Houston Rockets have locked up the West's top seed, and they don't have anything to play for tonight against the Los Angeles Lakers. Because of this, he's not someone you'll want to target in cash as his minutes may be volatile, but his upside still makes him very appealing in tournaments.

The Rockets haven't fully taken their foot off the pedal yet, and Harden hasn't played fewer than 33.9 minutes in any of his last five games. His 35.8 minutes per game in that stretch are right in line with his season average of 35.5.

The Lakers allow top-10 fantasy production to guards, and Harden ranks second in the NBA with an average of 1.50 FanDuel points per minute. He's a threat for a big game even if he sees reduced minutes, and he has a huge ceiling if he logs his normal workload.
