3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/7/19
It's tough to ignore Russell Westbrook in a solid matchup against Portland on Thursday's two-game slate. Which other high-priced players should be on your radar?

Paul George, SF, Oklahoma City Thunder

Price: $11,000

Paul George has played one game since returning from his three-game injury absence, and he showed no ill-effects. He played just over 38 minutes in his return to action, giving him at least 38 minutes in seven straight games.

Despite struggling with his shot recently, that seven-game stretch has seen him average 56.0 FanDuel points in 41.8 (!) minutes per game. That does include a double-overtime game in late February, but even if you cut 10 minutes off his playing time in that game, he had over 40 minutes in regulation, as well.

Like Westbrook, PG has a relatively strong matchup against Portland. The Blazers allow the 13th-most FanDuel points per minute to opposing small forwards, which is tied for the third-worst ranking for any team on the slate against opponents at any position.
