Abdel Nader, SF, Oklahoma City Thunder

FanDuel Price: $3,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 18.7
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.05

Another low-cost option to target in the expected Thunder-Timberwolves shootout is Abdel Nader.

Over the last three games with Paul George sitting out, Nader has seen at least 16.7 minutes in each, with the swingman racking up over 22.7 minutes in both of the previous two nights. Nader has progressively increased his workload in the games, too, as he took 10 shots from the floor on Sunday for 15 real-world points against the Memphis Grizzlies. He finished with 23.9 FanDuel points in the contest. It was his second straight game with at least 15.5 FanDuel points.

In Nader's limited chances to play substantial minutes this season -- he has played at least 17 minutes just six times -- he has produced well in DFS. He dropped at least 23.4 FanDuel points in four of those six games while averaging 20.9 FanDuel points a night in that split.

With George remaining questionable to play on Tuesday, Nader could see extended minutes once again, making him a good punt play if PG13 sits out.
