Jamal Crawford, SG, Los Angeles Clippers ($5,300)

If you can find a shooting guard priced as modestly and that has offered as much consistency and upside as Jamal Crawford has over his past 10 games, let us know.

Crawford is averaging 28.8 FanDuel points per game and has topped 34 FanDuel points three times over this stretch. And now this evening he'll face a Phoenix team that is allowing the fourth-most FanDuel points to opposing shooting guards on the season. Add in Chris Paul's potentially limited availability due to a thigh bruise, and everything is setting up for a solid evening for the veteran.

The price and his recent floor should have Crawford on your radar in cash games this evening. His matchup against Devin Booker and his dreadful defense -- he is ranked 90th out of 92 qualified shooting guards in terms of Defensive Real Plus-Minus ranking -- should help boost his ceiling and also make him a viable option in tournaments as well.
