5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays for 12/14/17

Allen Crabbe, SF, Brooklyn Nets

FanDuel Price: $4,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 21.3
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.53

After recommending him in Tuesday's installment, Allen Crabbe gives us good reason to go back to the well on Thursday. Despite shooting just 3-of-15 from the floor and 3-of-14 from three on Tuesday, Crabbe finished with 13 points and a total of 28.5 FanDuel points against the Washington Wizards. Given his productive outing, Crabbe's price has gone up $200 over the last two days, but he's locked into 30-plus minutes a game and makes for a good-floor, great-upside play against the New York Knicks.

This season, the Knicks have surrendered 20.6 points, 2.2 threes and 39.6 FanDuel points per game to opposing small forwards. They rank in the middle of the pack there, but they're dead last with a three-point attempt rate of 36.2%, per Cleaning the Glass. On the other side, the Brooklyn Nets are fourth in the league, bombing 35.9% of their field goal attempts from beyond the arc this season. Crabbe leads the way with 6.7 three-point attempts a night while taking 62% of his shot attempts from deep.

Crabbe's strengths against the Knicks' weakness sure makes for a juicy target, and the fact that Vegas likes the Nets to score the third-most points (107.25) of tonight's 10 teams in action gives us even more of a reason to send him back out there on Thursday.
