3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 2/8/18
Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors
Price: $9,800
It comes as no surprise, but Stephen Curry has been an absolute killer on offense over the past month. He's seventh in points per game in that time (26.3) despite not cracking the top 25 in field goal attempts per game (16.6). His volume from three-point range has remained elite, though, with his 10.5 attempted threes per game ranking first.
His fantasy production is down a bit lately, but that comes largely thanks to a .508 effective field goal percentage over his last four games that is, by Curry's standards, pretty weak. For context, he has a .612 effective field goal percentage on the year and posted a .580 mark last year. So those four games are likely just a bit of variance.
The Dallas Mavericks also represent a good spot for a bounceback, as they're allowing the league's 11th-most FanDuel points per game to opposing point guards while allowing an above-average three-point percentage.
Potentially making things even better for Curry, Kevin Durant is questionable tonight, and Curry has seen a huge 20.4% jump in fantasy points per game in seven contests with Durant sidelined this year, compared to the 32 they have played together.
