Norman Powell, SG, Toronto Raptors

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 12.1
Projected FanDuel Value: 2.82

The Toronto Raptors inserted Norman Powell back into the starting lineup for Game 2, and the result was a 22-point loss. Powell was fairly productive in his 27 minutes of court time, putting up 18 FanDuel points, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him in the starting lineup, but it is anyone's guess as to what Coach Dwayne Casey is going to do with his lineups at this point.

Be sure to keep an eye on the news leading up to tipoff. Powell has averaged 22.3 FanDuel points in four playoff starts and is taking on a Cleveland Cavaliers team that allowed the second-most FanDuel points to opposing shooting guards and the fifth-most to small forwards this season. If starting again, he should have no problem being productive, especially considering there is just a 2.5-point spread in what is expected to be a more competitive game.
