3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 12/2/16
Karl-Anthony Towns posted a career-best fantasy score against the Knicks on Tuesday, and will run that matchup back tonight. What other high-priced players should be on your radar?

James Harden, SG, Houston Rockets

FanDuel Price: $11,500

He has been a little overshadowed by some other players posting absurd fantasy numbers (see: Westbrook, Russell), but James Harden is turning in a phenomenal season, sporting a big 33.7% usage rate while averaging 28.7 points, 7.7 rebounds and a league-leading 12.0 assists -- good for 53.6 FanDuel Points per game.

He's coming off a big game Thursday night against the Golden State Warriors in which he posted 65.5 FanDuel points, and while that game going to double-overtime makes him a bit of riskier play than usual, that is largely made up for by a terrific matchup against the Denver Nuggets.

Denver is playing at the league's fifth-fastest pace, rank 18th in defensive rating and have allowed the league's second-most fantasy points to opposing point guards this season, and Harden has a good shot at being the night's top fantasy scorer in this one.
