3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/9/16
Kawhi Leonard is off to a hot start this season, and he draws a great matchup tonight against the Houston Rockets. What other high-priced players should you target in DFS?

Kawhi Leonard, SF, San Antonio Spurs

FanDuel Price: $8,800

While Kawhi Leonard's minutes per game have hovered around 31 since his second year, what he has done with those minutes has changed drastically.

With each season he has been in the league, he has seen an increase in usage rate, FanDuel points per game and FanDuel points per minute. He has also improved his player efficiency rating in all but one season. Through seven games this season, Leonard is putting up 42.1 FanDuel points per game (1.3 per minute) with a 32.8% usage rate and league-leading 35.0 player efficiency rating. His .630 true shooting percentage is also a career-best clip.

He brings those strong numbers into a great matchup as the San Antonio Spurs take on a Houston Rockets team that ranks 27th in defensive rating and has allowed top-10 fantasy production to opponents at both forward positions.
