Alex Len, C, Atlanta Hawks

FanDuel Price: $4,100
Projected FanDuel Points: 32.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 7.91

While Alex Len was a favorite value play on Monday in a start against the Miami Heat, the big man ended up being a flop with just 8.8 FanDuel points. Despite the bad outing, we are moving all-in with Len again on Wednesday as he is in line to earn another start for the Atlanta Hawks, this time in place of Dewayne Dedmon against the San Antonio Spurs.

The reason we can't quit Len is his enormous production potential when he plays significant minutes. In games that Len has played at least 24 minutes this season (12), the big man finished with over 40 FanDuel points in seven of them. He ended up with at least 22.9 FanDuel points -- enough to reach optimal value on Wednesday -- in all but one game.

For the season, Len is averaging 20.5 FanDuel points in 19.1 minutes per game, for a solid 1.07 FanDuel points per minute. That is one reason we have Len as far and away the best value option of Wednesday's 10-team slate.
