FanDuel Price: $3,800

Projected FanDuel Value: 6.33

There are plenty of players on NBA benches who can shine when given an opportunity. After all, they're all in the best basketball league in the world. One such player who will get his chance to shine tonight and for the foreseeable future is Brooklyn Nets guard Shabazz Napier.

The journeyman guard should see a big bump in minutes tonight as the Nets will be without Spencer Dinwiddie, who will likely miss several weeks of action due to ligament tears in his thumb. Napier, who is averaging 16.5 minutes per game this season, should see closer to 25 tonight (we project him to see the court for just over 24 minutes).

While that increase might not seem huge on the surface, it is for a player who is averaging 0.97 FanDuel points per minute this season. We see him continuing that strong per-minute output, projecting him for 24.1 FanDuel points tonight.
