3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/8/18
Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors
Price: $10,700
Last season, Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry were neck-and-neck in usage rate. Curry led the Warriors with a mark of 30.9%, but Durant was right behind him at 30.3%.
This yea,r we've seen a bigger gap so far, with Curry sitting at 31.8% while Durant checks in at 28.1%. That puts Durant closer to Klay Thompson (26.2%) than Curry.
It has been a consistent trend, too, as Curry has posted a usage rate higher than Durant's in each of the last five games. In that stretch, Curry has posted a mark of at least 30% four times, while Durant has only done so twice. KD also has three games in that stretch lower than 22.1%, which is Curry's lowest in the five games.
This domination of the Dubs' offensive workload gives Curry a ton of value in tonight's game, where their 121.0-point implied total is by far the highest on the slate.
Making this spot even more appealing for Curry, no team allows more 3-point attempts or made 3-pointers per game than the Bucks.
