3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 1/28/19

Kemba Walker, PG, Charlotte Hornets

Price: $9,200

Kemba Walker made an early exit from the Charlotte Hornets' last game with a neck injury, but it was reported that he could have returned to that game if it went any longer, and he's being listed as probable to suit up tonight, so there's no real need for concern on that front.

He's been playing some serious minutes lately, topping 35.5 minutes in each of his last three (despite leaving with just over two minutes left in his last one), averaging 37.1 per game in that stretch. Had he played out the final two minutes on Friday, he'd be up to 37.7 per game over those three.

His fantasy production in that time has been nothing special (41.3, 45.9 and 29.1 FanDuel points), but with an average of a career-best 1.19 FanDuel points per minute on the year, a three-game run of inefficiency is hard to chalk up as much more than variance.

Efficiency also shouldn't be any sort of a concern tonight, as he draws an outstanding matchup against the New York Knicks, who rank 29th in defensive rating and allow top-10 fantasy efficiency to opposing point guards.
