3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 2/12/19
With oddsmakers expecting a close game between the Hawks and Lakers, LeBron James offers some of the best upside on the slate. Which other high-priced players can you trust?

Anthony Davis, PF, New Orleans Pelicans

Price: $12,500

This reduced workload may just be enough to knock Anthony Davis down a tier. He may have left the level of "absurd, historically unmatched fantasy production" and fallen down to just "top-tier fantasy stud." And that's okay, particularly with his salary down to $12,500.

He played only 25.8 minutes in his return from a nine-game injury absence, and he still managed 52.8 FanDuel points. AD got a more full workload in his next game (34.0 minutes), and despite putting up only 8 field goal attempts, he still had 52.2 FanDuel points.

It certainly helped his value that he was seeing minutes into the high-30's or low-40's before the injury and trade deadline debacle, but if he's going to still play mid-30's minutes, then we really don't need to be concerned -- especially considering he's on pace for the second-most FanDuel points per minute any player has ever recorded in a season, per StatMuse.

It comes as no surprise that our models project Davis for Tuesday's top fantasy score, and he's a top play in all formats.
