Evan Turner, SF, Portland Trail Blazers

FanDuel Price: $4,600
Projected FanDuel Points: 20.4
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.43

In the game with the second-highest total (226.5) of the night, the Portland Trail Blazers play host to the Los Angeles Clippers at Moda Center. The Blazers, as 5.0-point favorites, carry a 115.75-point implied total, which should be reason enough to try to fit in Evan Turner.

If that isn't enough, Turner is playing well this season, averaging 24.75 FanDuel points per night with 10.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game (and shooting a career-best 51.6%). He's also coming off his best game of the season -- a contest in which he double-doubled, tallied 38.2 FanDuel points and played a season-high 31.5 minutes against the Bucks. Yet his price is just $200 more than it was two days ago.

Turner is always more of a tournament play, especially with the Blazers' tendency to rotate guys at spots one through three. However, if you end up with him as your last guy in cash, he's proven to have about a 16-point floor this year, and at worst, he's your score to drop. The reward outweighs the risk.
