3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/23/17
Kawhi Leonard, SF, San Antonio Spurs
FanDuel Price: $9,300
Our highest-projected fantasy scorer of the day, Kawhi Leonard draws what looks like a tough matchup on the surface lately. He's likely to go a little overlooked because of his recent struggles, which makes him a great tournament option.
The Memphis Grizzlies' slow pace and solid defense has earned them a reputation as a team you want to avoid in fantasy, but that really hasn't been the case since the All-Star break, ranking only 25th with a 112.4 defensive rating in that time.
Even with a couple of duds mixed in (including a game he left early with a head injury and a blowout in which he played only 26 minutes), Leonard is averaging 44.9 FanDuel points with a strong 32.3% usage rate in 35.2 minutes. We can expect an above-average performance out of him in what is quietly a solid matchup.
