Price: $11,200
On Wednesday night, everyone and their brother will be gravitating to Damian Lillard sans C.J. McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic. But, while the Trail Blazers' point guard will get all the shots he can get up, Russell Westbrook's price is so low that he's a mere $200 more than Dame.
To find the last time Brodie was this affordable, you have to go all the way back to December 15, a game in which the Oklahoma City Thunder star went for 55.8 FanDuel points. As a matter of fact, he's averaged 56.0 FanDuel points in the seven instances he's been priced at or below $11,200. That's a value of exactly 5.0 points per $1,000 at tonight's asking price.
It's hard to understand the substantial drop in price, too. Prior to Monday's 31.5-point outing, Westbrook had put up at least 51.2 FanDuel points in six of seven games, including three with at least 63.9.
This evening's matchup isn't great by the numbers. The Indiana Pacers are first against the point guard position, and their implied total (110.5) is 3.8 short of their season average. However, Westbrook could certainly build off the 66.3 FanDuel points he turned in during the teams' only other meeting this season. He's our top projected player of the night.
