Edmond Sumner, PG, Indiana Pacers
FanDuel Price: $3,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 13.7
Projected FanDuel Value: 3.92
With both Tyreke Evans and Victor Oladipo out, the Indiana Pacers have had to be creative to find another starter at shooting guards. Their decision? To shift Edmond Sumner -- who had previously played no more than five minutes and four seconds in a game -- into the starting five.
Sumner has actually been in the starting
lineup for each of the Pacers' past two games, and as you'd
expect there has been a steep learning curve. He is a combined 3-for-17
(ouch) from the field and has just nine points.
His
saving grace, however, has been on defense, where his four steals and
two blocks across two games has resulted in him being able to
achieve a value of at least 5.0 FanDuel points per $1,000 in both
starts.
