3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 11/2/18

Kevin Durant, SF/PF, Golden State Warriors

DraftKings Price: $9,900

There have been a total of five games since 2000 that have had a total set at 240 or higher, according to SportsDatabase. Tonight's game between the Golden State Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves (which has a total set at 242.5) is the first game since 2010 that has met that mark.

The over was 3-1 in the previous four games, with an average of 250.75 points scored. Needless to say, there is not going to be a lack of fantasy opportunity tonight, which bodes well for just about any player you choose to roster from this game.

The player to benefit most, perhaps, is Warriors forward Kevin Durant. As if you needed reason beyond the total, Durant has scored at least 61 DraftKings points in three of his past four games against the Wolves. In his last two, he's scored at 72 and 69 points, respectively.

We have him projected at the third-highest DraftKings play of the night (Westbrook, Stephen Curry), but he could easily be number one when it's all is said and done.
