3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/8/18
Stephen Curry offers elite upside against a Bucks team that allows the most three-pointers per game this season. Which other high-priced studs can you trust tonight?

Giannis Antetokounmpo, SF, Milwaukee Bucks

Price: $12,500

With 51.9 FanDuel points per game on the year, Giannis Antetokounmpo ranks third in the NBA as well as first among players in action on tonight's short four-game slate.

Few players have been as consistent as he has, with his 6 games of 50-plus FanDuel points also ranking 3rd in the NBA. He has failed to hit 50 only 3 times, while he has also gone over the 60 FanDuel point mark twice, which includes a game with 78.6 -- which is the fourth-highest single-game mark in the NBA this year.

He has continued the trend of an increasing usage rate with each season in the league, and this year it sits at 34.4%, which he combines with a 32.0% assist rate and 19.9% rebound rate (both career-highs). He's not producing steals and blocks the way we're used to seeing but has still notched a combined 2.2 per game.

Tonight's matchup with the Golden State Warriors has a massive 234.5-point over/under, and while a matchup with the Warriors usually creates some concern with the blowout risk, the Milwaukee Bucks are only 7.5-point underdogs here, meaning Giannis is likely to see a full complement of minutes in what promises to be a shootout.
