Paul Millsap, PF, Atlanta Hawks

FanDuel Price: $8,100

The Atlanta Hawks are projected for 111.5 points against the Brooklyn Nets, which is 9.2 points higher than their season scoring average. All Atlanta players deserve a sizable boost in this pace-up game against the defensively inept Nets.

Brooklyn ranks 26th in rebounding rate, 27th in defensive efficiency and have allowed the third-most FanDuel points per game to opposing power forwards. They have also been abused out of the pick-and-roll, allowing the fourth-most points to opposing roll-men. Millsap ranks 10th in points out of the pick-and-roll and is clearly Atlanta's preferred big to use in that situation, attempting 75 more shots than Dwight Howard out of the pick-and-roll this season.

In games the Hawks have played in with at least a 215-point over/under (what they have today), Paul Millsap has averaged 40.5 FanDuel points. He checks all the boxes and is a terrific play in all formats.
