5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 12/10/18
Jalen Brunson looks to keep it going in the absence of Dennis Smith Jr. tonight. Which other low-cost players are in good spots tonight?

James Johnson, PF, Miami Heat

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 17.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.07

James Johnson turned in his best game of the season on Saturday with 18 points and 8 rebounds after logging a season-high 30 minutes. He looks to be ramping up after a slow start, as he's averaging 12.3 points, 5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.3 steals over his last three games.

The Miami Heat are still hampered with lingering injuries, as Josh Richardson is listed as questionable and Hassan Whiteside is already ruled out, so Johnson could continue to see ample opportunities.

Based on our metrics, Johnson -- along with teammates Bam Adebayo and Kelly Olynyk -- shares the fourth-best defense-versus-position matchup among tonight's power forwards.
