E'Twaun Moore, SF, New Orleans Pelicans

FanDuel Price: $4,600
Projected FanDuel Points: 23.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.12

The New Orleans Pelicans have the third-largest implied total (116.50) in a game with the highest over/under (237.0) of the night, and by a wide margin -- the next-closest is 220.0 -- at that. So to say targeting this game is ideal is an understatement. And if you want cheap exposure, E'Twaun Moore is the guy.

Moore is the team's starting small forward when everyone is healthy, and he's been playing a lot of shooting guard with Elfrid Payton out and Jrue Holiday sliding to the point. No matter the position, though, he's played at least 30 minutes in all non-blowouts, tallying 33 or more in five of nine. In doing so, he's averaged 22.5 FanDuel points with at least 23 in four games (two in his last three).

Moore is coming off a 15.7-FanDuel-point dud, and he'll be squaring off with Paul George at times. But that matchup hasn't been as bad for fantasy purposes, as OKC has allowed 44.04 FanDuel points per 48 minutes to opposing small forwards -- a number that ranks 21st in the NBA. And it's for that reason that Moore is eighth in projected points per $1,000 at the small forward spot.
