5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays for 11/3/17
Jordan Clarkson, SG, Los Angeles Lakers
FanDuel Price: $3,900
Projected FanDuel Points: 24.9
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.37
In a game with an over/under of 225 points, the Los Angeles Lakers own the second-highest implied total, at 113.75 points. In fact, both of those numbers have jumped from an open of 224 and 113, respectively. And it has everything to do with the Lakers and Nets' lightning-fast paces.
To this point in the season, the Lakers and Nets rank first and fourth in pace, per Basketball Reference. The Lakers are even juicier because the Nets are 27th in the NBA with a defensive rating of 112.2 points allowed per 100 possessions.
Why Jordan Clarkson then? He's a bench player, yes, but over the last three games his minutes have stabilized at 21. During that same time, he's operated with a 24.2% usage rate, which ranks fourth among Lakers to play 50 or more minutes. He should be able to take advantage of this ideal spot.
