3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/7/16
John Wall has a great matchup against a weak Houston Rockets defense tonight. What other high-priced options should you target in DFS?

Anthony Davis, PF, New Orleans Pelicans

FanDuel Price: $10,900

Anthony Davis has been a little bit up-and-down to start the year, but his fantasy upside is tremendous. His three games with 60-plus FanDuel points to start the year are tied for the most in the league, and his 55.9 FanDuel points per game make him one of only three players averaging above 50.0 to start the year.

He draws a pretty good matchup tonight in the game with the highest over-under (222.5) against the Golden State Warriors.

Golden State has played with the league's fastest pace to start the season, while the New Orleans Pelicans aren't far behind, ranking seventh. Davis has a big 32.3% usage rate on the year, so extra possessions will likely lead to plenty of extra touches for him.

Even with a massive 17-point spread, Davis' ability to contribute fantasy production even when he doesn't have the ball (with 11.7 rebounds, 3.2 blocks, and 2.2 steals per game) makes that fast pace especially good for his fantasy outlook while he is on the floor.
