3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 10/27/16
Chris Paul opens the season with a great matchup against Portland. What other high-priced players should be in your lineup tonight?

Kawhi Leonard, SF, San Antonio Spurs

FanDuel Price: $8,200

Kawhi Leonard's role in the San Antonio Spurs' offense has increased with each season he has been in the league, and he posted a solid 25.8% usage rate last year while averaging career-highs with 21.2 points and 2.6 assists per game.

He played a huge role on opening night this year, with a a 36.2% usage rate against the Golden State Warriors, while scoring a career-high 35 points. It appears that he will be even more of a focal point this season, and if that is the case, his price won't remain this low for long.

He is also always a threat to contribute peripheral stats -- averaging 6.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals, and 1.0 block per game last season -- and our models project him for the third-highest fantasy total of the night.
