Caris LeVert, SG, Brooklyn Nets

FanDuel Price: $4,600
Projected FanDuel Points: 22.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.90

In his fourth game back from injury, Caris LeVert put up 47.5 FanDuel points with 27 points in 29.4 minutes against the aforementioned Clippers. It would appear that he's close to 100% and will return to his role as a playmaker for the Brooklyn Nets.

The Nets went to a lot of small lineups in Sunday's loss. One of the key lineup changes was inserting LeVert into the game for D'Angelo Russell, who struggled from the field (1-of-6) and committed two turnovers to three assists. Meanwhile, LeVert played his most minutes since January 26th, using 29.5% of the offensive possessions and assisting on more than 37% of his team's made buckets while on the floor. But can we expect something similar on Tuesday against the Warriors?

On the year, LeVert is averaging 24.3 FanDuel points per game and 0.94 FanDuel points per minute. His opponent allows 2.3 fewer points per 100 possessions than the Clippers and they're 15th versus shooting guards. It's not an ideal spot, but if LeVert gets 25 or more minutes, he could return value with this game expected to reach 230 total points.
