Tyler Johnson, PG, Miami Heat

FanDuel Price: $4,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 24.2
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.14

Over his last 10 games, Tyler Johnson has averaged 22.3 FanDuel points on 50.0% shooting while playing 26.9 minutes a game. And since the calendar turned to December he's been even better. Playing 27.8 minutes per night, the combo-guard has produced 24.3 FD points with 16.8 points on an outstanding 62% clip from the floor. It's really an unsustainable pace.

To be a good value play tonight, Johnson doesn't have to continue his unbelievable shooting. Over the course of the year, he's averaging 20.6 FanDuel points and just two days ago he returned 24.5 FanDuel points on just five field goals and 10 shot attempts. As his averages bear out, he is more than capable of grabbing three or more rebounds with a couple of assists, and if he sees the 29-plus minutes we project him to log against the Portland Trail Blazers he could do much more than that. And if he's on fire once again from the field, that's just icing on top of the cake.
