5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 11/14/18
Jaylen Brown, SG, Boston Celtics
FanDuel Price: $4,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 26.4
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.61
The argument for playing Jaylen Brown is quite simple: he's just too cheap. Immediately before and after a one-game absence (foot injury), Brown was priced at exactly $5,000. Last week, he was all the way up to $5,400, so a 6% decrease is enough to warrant exposure against a weak Chicago Bulls team.
This could be the perfect get-right spot for Brown. Since returning from that short bout with foot soreness, Brown has averaged 13 field goal attempts in five games. The only game in which he's put up fewer than 13 is Boston's last one in Portland. And the volume stretches beyond the shots, as Brown has logged at least 28.6 minutes in each game, while grabbing four or more rebounds in four of five. Outside of a poor 9.2-FanDuel-point showing against the Blazers, he's averaging 22.3 FanDuel points.
If the shot attempts continue to be there, Brown is primed for a good scoring night. Chicago is 21st in points allowed (114.0 per game on the road), 23rd in defensive rating and their 91.6 field goal attempts against per game rank 25th in the NBA. Boston's 110.75 total that sits 7th of the 22 teams in action tonight. Expect Brown to be involved.
