Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors

Price: $9,500

One of those players with a low floor in a potential blowout, Stephen Curry's upside is huge if this game does stay close. That is always going to make for some interesting tournament value, and with only three games on this slate, it puts him in play for cash games, as well.

The Golden State Warriors are hefty 13.0-point favorites against the Los Angeles Lakers, and that gives the Dubs a slate-high 120.0-point implied total.

Embracing a late-season tank, the Lakers have combined an 18th-ranked defensive rating with the league's 6th-highest pace since March 1. They were a plus matchup in fantasy even when they were putting in some effort as they've allowed the 12th-most FanDuel points per minute to opposing point guards on the year.

With the Dubs still playing to hold on to the top spot in the West, Curry has topped 50 FanDuel points in four of his last eight games. Six of those games were decided by 15 or fewer points, and in those six, he averaged 48.1 FanDuel points in 35.1 minutes per game.

That average is already better than 5.0 fantasy points per $1,000 on today's salary, and in this matchup, we can expect above-average efficiency, as well.
