Bradley Beal, SG, Washington Wizards

FanDuel Price: $7,200

Bradley Beal has at least 35 FanDuel points in four of his past six games, and he should remain hot in tonight's matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers. Beal's Washington Wizards are projected for 114.75 points against Los Angeles, in a game that has an over/under set at 218.5 points. Washington is currently listed as an 11-point home favorite, so blowout is definitely a concern, but on tonight's four-game slate with several large spreads, it's not something to worry too much about.

Few players have benefited from positive game scripts more than Beal this year, who has been money in the bank in shootouts. In games with over/unders of at least 215 points, the shooting guard has averaged 35.9 FanDuel points, as opposed to 29.7 in all other games. In games with an implied team total of at least 111 points, that average has ballooned to 40.3 FanDuel points.

The Lakers rank dead last in defensive efficiency this season and have allowed the sixth-most FanDuel points per game to opposing shooting guards. The only thing that should be able to keep Beal from a huge game tonight is a blowout.
