3 NBA FanDuel Value Plays for 12/21/17

Isaiah Canaan, PG, Phoenix Suns

FanDuel Price: $3,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 8.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 2.33

Isaiah Canaan has bumped around from team to team throughout the offseason and early part of the year. He seems to have finally found a landing spot with the Phoenix Suns, and he's making the most of his opportunity.

Coming off of the bench in each of the three games with his new team, he's seen at least 22 minutes of run in each game, supplanting Mike James, who has been on the court for only 20 minutes since Canaan has joined the team. Canaan been productive with those minutes, too, averaging 14.0 points, 5.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds, and 27.73 FanDuel points per game. This strong play propelled his salary from $3,500 to $4,100, but it has fallen back to $3,700 for tonight's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Memphis is a tough matchup, mind you. They are giving up only 42.58 FanDuel points per game to opposing point guards, sixth-fewest in the league. However, the Grizz are on the second night of a back-to-back, and Canaan is still fresh into his season.

Canaan's recent play coupled with his cheap salary make him a player to strongly consider in all formats tonight.
