3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/24/17
Steph Curry has elite upside tonight in a matchup with a Chicago defense that has struggled to defend the three. Which other high-priced players should be on your radar?

Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors

Price: $10,000

The Chicago Bulls have really struggled defending the three-point shot this season, allowing the NBA's fifth-highest three-point percentage on the ninth-most three-point attempts per 100 possessions. That has them allowing the seventh-most made three-pointers per game. The Bulls have also posted shaky defensive numbers in general, ranking 25th in defensive rating, and they are allowing top-10 fantasy production to opposing point guards.

All of those factors combine to make this an outstanding matchup for Stephen Curry.

Curry's 9.2 three-point attempts per game rank third in the NBA this season, and he is very consistent in getting that shot up, attempting at least eight treys in seven of his last eight games.

Steph stands to see a bump in peripheral numbers in this matchup. Chicago is allowing the third-most assists per 100 possessions while turning the ball over at an above-average rate and ranking in the bottom 10 in rebound rate. That gives a boost to Curry's floor and ceiling in what is already a great matchup for scoring.
