Terrence Ross, SG, Orlando Magic

FanDuel Price: $4,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 25.7
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.47

Usual starting small forward Jonathan Isaac has been ruled out for Monday's game with a right ankle sprain. Wesley Iwundu started in his stead, but it was Terrence Ross who saw the big bump, playing 31 minutes and putting up 26.6 FanDuel points with the opportunity. With that performance, he is now averaging 28.7 FanDuel points and 1.03 points per minute in the 5 games he's played at least 25 minutes this season.

In case you didn't already know, the Cleveland Cavaliers are a really bad defensive team. They rank dead last in defensive rating (120.2 points allowed per 100 possessions), while also ranking 28th against shooting guards and 14th against small forwards from a fantasy standpoint

. Ross is a combo guard/forward, but it doesn't really matter where he slots in the most, especially at this price.

Orlando -- a team that averages 101.8 points per game -- heads into tonight with a 108.75 implied total against the Cavs. Ross should be highly-owned, but he's a great play in this matchup. His projected value of 5.47 points per $1,000 ranks fifth among all players on the slate.
