Kelly Oubre, SF, Washington Wizards

FanDuel Price: $4,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 21.1
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.49

Excluding an anomaly of a game against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday -- one in which he played only 16 minutes, Kelly Oubre has eclipsed 20 FanDuel points eight times in his last nine games played, averaging 25.3 FanDuel points per night (including the dismal 3.5 fantasy point showing against the Bulls). He is shooting less than 40% from the floor during the stretch but making it up for it in other ways, posting 12.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.1 steals, and 0.7 blocks in 27.0 minutes per game as the Washington Wizards' sixth-man.

Thursday's matchup against a Cleveland Cavaliers team allowing the fifth-most FanDuel points to small forwards is a dream scenario for Oubre. In addition, Cavs' opponents have drained 11.7 treys per game while Cleveland owns a 109.3 defensive rating, leaving them ranked 28th in both categories. Oubre has had success against LeBron James and company, too, averaging 28.8 FanDuel points in the two teams' three previous meetings.
