5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 11/12/18
T.J. McConnell could see a boost in minutes with the Sixers shorthanded on Monday night. Which other low-priced players can help round our your lineups?

T.J. McConnell, PG, Philadelphia 76ers

FanDuel Price: $3,900
Projected FanDuel Points: 24.8
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.35

In case you've been living under a rock, Jimmy Butler has been traded to the Philadelphia 76ers, who most notably dealt Robert Covington and Dario Saric back to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the trade. With everything just finalized, Butler will not play until at least Wednesday, which keeps the Sixers rather thin.

Absent Covington and Saric on Saturday, T.J. McConnell -- albeit in an overtime loss -- played over 34 minutes off the bench, tallying 33.1 FanDuel points on 16 points, 7 assists and 3 rebounds. He's now averaging 0.83 FanDuel points per minute, which requires just 23.5 minutes for him to reach value at his sub-$4K price.

Expect to see a lot more of McConnell in three-guard lineups with J.J. Redick and Landry Shamet, a trio that shared the floor for over 14 minutes last time out, according to NBA Stats. So, while we are shorted of Butler, Covington and Saric, just take advantage of the obvious value on tonight's slate.
