3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/14/18

Kevin Durant, SF, Golden State Warriors

Price: $10,500

With Stephen Curry remaining on the sidelines for a few more games, Kevin Durant will continue to shoulder an increased workload for the Warriors.

KD has played 16 games without Curry this year, boasting a huge 35.1% usage rate in 35.2 minutes per game, compared to only 28.2% in 34.4 minutes with Curry. For context, only one player has a usage rate north of 35% over the whole season (minimum 100 minutes played).

Unsurprisingly, that increased workload has meant big things for his fantasy production -- he's averaging 53.8 FanDuel points per game without Curry -- a jump of 11.5 fantasy points from when his teammate is on the floor.

His price tag still hasn't climbed far enough to reflect this elite production, and he draws a terrific matchup against a Los Angeles Lakers team that has allowed top-five fantasy production to opponents at both forward positions.
