Bryn Forbes, PG, San Antonio Spurs

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 20.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.78

Over the last three weeks, Bryn Forbes has quietly logged heavy minutes for the San Antonio Spurs. The third-year guard is averaging 33.3 minutes over his previous 11 games. That is a nearly a 25% increase over his 26.9-minute average in his first 34 games played.

With the extra court time, Forbes has produced well in DFS, logging seven games (out of 11) with at least 21.4 FanDuel points, enough to earn 5.0 FanDuel points per $1,000 of salary on Wednesday. He is averaging 22.7 FanDuel points per game during the stretch. Forbes is getting it done with a solid line of 13.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.1 steals per night.

Besides the potential of substantial value on Wednesday, facing the Dallas Mavericks, Forbes will have a favorable matchup as well. The Mavs have allowed the seventh-most FanDuel points per minute (0.99) to point guards and the eight-most (0.89) to shooting guards, the two spots Forbes lines up for the Spurs.
