Bradley Beal, SG, Washington Wizards

FanDuel Price: $7,600

After pouring in 72 points and 100.2 FanDuel points in a ridiculous 2-game stretch, Bradley Beal has returned to the land of the living, averaging a more sustainable 21 points per game in his last 2. His minutes were limited in his most recent game due to a 22-point blowout win, but he remained scorching hot by hitting 7 of 8 shots, including 6 of 7 from downtown.

That game pushed his three-point percentage to 48.6% over his past 4 games, during which he has averaged 4.5 triples per contest. Tonight's matchup against the Pacers provides him with an opportunity to keep stroking it from beyond the arc, as Indiana has allowed the fifth-most made three-pointers per game.

He should also benefit from the game script -- he's averaged 35.9 FanDuel points when playing in games with an over/under above 215 points this season, as opposed to 29.7 in all other games. He's averaged 34.3 FanDuel points when Washington has had an implied team total of at least 108 points.

Beal has shown his upside when playing in shootouts and should thrive in tonight's up-tempo game. He is an excellent target in all formats.
