Jonathan Isaac, PF, Orlando Magic

FanDuel Price: $4,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 14.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 3.24

Staying with the shorthanded Magic, Jonathan Isaac is another guy that's been forced to play a different role as a starter. He and Mario Hezonja have interchangeably started at small forward and power forward, though Isaac's played 97% of his minutes at power forward this season (per Basketball Reference). And while Aaron Gordon's yet to be cleared to play after suffering a concussion, the Magic are playing for the future. It's certainly possibly that they play Isaac and Gordon beside one another down the stretch.

The two versatile forwards have played just 67 minutes together, but in the 13 games they've appeared, the Magic are 8-5 with a net rating of 6.7. In the three games Gordon's been sidelined, Isaac has averaged 25 minutes and 20.3 FanDuel points per game. Just two days ago, though, he flashed some upside with 31.5 FanDuel points against the Los Angeles Clippers.

If Gordon's out, Isaac's a very good play. If he's in, the rookie's a tournament-only option in hopes that he -- not Hezonja -- gets Evan Fournier's vacant minutes. Either way, he could take advantage of a Bucks team allowing 54.9 FanDuel points per game to power forwards over their last 10.
