Nikola Vucevic, C, Orlando Magic

Price: $10,200

If you're not wanting to pay up quite as high or if you are looking for a tournament-oriented pivot, Nikola Vucevic's tough matchup with the Indiana Pacers may scare people off of him, but he's still offering some big upside in this spot.

Vooch has been rolling recently, with at least 5.0 fantasy points per $1,000 in salary in four of his last five games. That's the kind of value we look for, and it's not something we can always count on from the top-priced guys. Vucevic's run includes a big game in a tough matchup his last time out, dropping 53.7 fantasy points on the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Orlando Magic are slight 3.0-point favorites tonight, and that close spread makes it especially likely that we see big minutes out of Vucevic, which is easy to like out of a guy who ranks eighth in the NBA with 1.48 FanDuel points per minute this year.
