Jeff Teague, PG, Indiana Pacers

FanDuel Price: $7,200

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Jeff Teague has really struggled offensively and isn't likely to be a hot commodity with all the options available at point guard.

A few of the names that should end up popular include Eric Bledsoe, Kyrie Irving, Goran Dragic, Mike Conley, Ricky Rubio, Darren Collison, and Jameer Nelson, which should keep Teague's ownership down.

Why You Should Use Him:

Teague's production has been all over the map recently, with 7 of his last 15 games have gone for over 39 FanDuel points, while 4 have gone for less than 25. That's just part of the risk, which is what makes him an attractive tournament option -- he never seems to see ownership that reflects his upside.

If any matchup is going to help Teague realize his massive ceiling, it would be tonight's against Irving and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Cleveland has allowed the third-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards this season, and Irving's defensive real plus-minus (DRPM) of -1.66 ranks 66th among point guards.

In 4 meetings with Irving over the past 2 seasons, Teague has averaged 42.6 FanDuel points, highlighted by a 49-FanDuel-point performance against him just a week ago.

The volatility that comes with Teague takes him out of cash-game consideration on such a large slate, but the potential is huge for him, which makes him an ideal tournament play.
