De'Aaron Fox, PG, Sacramento Kings

FanDuel Price: $4,800
Projected FanDuel Points: 23.9
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.99

After a brief lull in production in late-March -- along with the resulting price drop under $5,000 -- De'Aaron Fox has picked up his game over the last two contests, averaging 14.5 points, 7.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks for 33.6 FanDuel points per game. The Sacramento Kings' rookie has been seeing over 27 minutes per game the last couple of weeks, and with Tuesday's opponent, the Phoenix Suns, playing some of the worst basketball in the NBA, Fox is set up to pay off big.

The Suns are currently mired in a horrific tanking slump, winning just one game in their last 26 contests (1-25). During that stretch, they are, by far, the worst defense in the NBA with the 30th-ranked defensive rating (113.4) and the most points per game allowed (117.2) among all teams. For fantasy purposes, they have given up the fourth-most FanDuel points per game to point guards, leaving Fox with a dream matchup to exploit.
