3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 12/1/17
Stephen Curry has a potentially great matchup tonight against the Orlando Magic. What other high-priced players should you target in daily fantasy?

Russell Westbrook, PG, Oklahoma City Thunder

Price: $11,300

Russell Westbrook had X-rays on his hand on Wednesday, but he was back practicing in full on Thursday, so we can expect him to be full-go tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

After an early-November slump, Westbrook has bounced back with an absurd stretch of fantasy performances, topping 60 FanDuel points in four of his last five games, with three games north of 65 and the only sub-60 game being a still-strong 54.9.

Westbrook is seeing a ton of playing time, averaging 38.4 minutes per game in that span. He's turned his huge 35.4% usage rate into 29.6 points, 12.0 rebounds, 9.2 assists, and 3.2 steals per game.

The Wolves aren't much of a threat to slow him down, ranking 23rd in defensive rating this season, and it's no surprise that numberFire's models project Westbrook as the day's top fantasy producer.
