Sterling Brown, SG, Milwaukee Bucks

FanDuel Price: $3,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 8.3
Projected FanDuel Value: 2.37

For the Milwaukee Bucks, injuries have become the talk of the town. While Jabari Parker gets set to return from his second ACL surgery tonight, Eric Bledsoe, Malcolm Brogdon, and Giannis Antetokounmpo are all dealing with injuries that could hold them out against the New York Knicks. Last night, Bledsoe sat out, Brogdon left on crutches and Antetokounmpo picked up an ankle issue.

With Brogdon likely to miss multiple games (if not more), Sterling Brown will remain in the rotation, and he could see an uptick in minutes if either Bledsoe or Giannis are ruled out for Friday's game. When the rookie's gotten the run, he's been a pleasant surprise for Milwaukee. In the eight games he's played 20 or more minutes, he's averaged 16.7 FanDuel points in over 26 minutes.

On the year, Brown's averaging 0.73 FanDuel points per minute when both Brogdon and Bledsoe aren't in the lineup. At the lowest price possible, all he needs is 24 minutes to reach that five-times value we're looking for.
