Tyler Dorsey, SG, Memphis Grizzlies

FanDuel Price: $4,000
Projected FanDuel Points: 23.3
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.82

As the Memphis Grizzlies conclude their season, they will be without Mike Conley and Avery Bradley once again on Tuesday. Bradley has been out of the lineup for the last 10 games, while Conley has played just three of the previous nine games. In those last nine games, all starts, Tyler Dorsey has racked up some heavy minutes.

The guard has averaged 14.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.2 assists in 31.4 minutes per game. Dorsey has played a significant role in the Grizzlies offense in those games too, attempting at least 11 shots in 7 of the 9 games. The increased role has left Dorsey as an excellent value play in DFS more times than not as he has posted at least 21.1 FanDuel points in 55% of his starts (5 times).

While Dorsey may not be a high-ceiling play, he still costs just $4,000, is staring at 30-plus minutes of action, and has posted a 23.8% usage rate in the last four games. That leaves him with a high-floor, something hard to find in the chaos of the NBA’s final regular season games.
