Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail Blazers

Price: $10,000

As has been the case for a couple of years now, the Brooklyn Nets have opened the season as one of the best matchups for fantasy purposes.

They are playing at the league's fastest pace, they rank bottom-10 in defensive rating, they sit 24th in rebound rate, and they've allowed above-average fantasy numbers to opponents at every position. This includes the league's seventh-most FanDuel points per game to point guards.

Damian Lillard is coming off a dud in a rough matchup against Memphis in his last outing, but before that, he had five-straight games of 40-plus FanDuel points, topping 60 twice in that span, and averaging 52.1 per game.

Thanks to the hiccup on Tuesday, his price tag doesn't capture that recent success, and with one of the better matchups on the slate, he makes for a terrific play tonight.
