Chris Paul, PG, Los Angeles Clippers

Price: $9,700

Even with Blake Griffin finally back in the lineup, Chris Paul remains an elite fantasy option. Griffin didn't see a full load of minutes in his first game back, and playing in the first half of a back-to-back here, it would be no surprise if his minutes were limited again.

With Paul's recent production and an ideal matchup tonight, even if Griffin isn't limited, Paul should be able to do some serious damage. Over the past month, he's averaging 43.7 FanDuel points, posting 19.7 points, 11.2 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game.

The Lakers' defense isn't going to give anybody trouble this season. They're sitting in last place with a 111.5 Defensive Rating, while allowing the league's fifth-highest Effective Field Goal Percentage and the fourth-most points per game.

They've been especially awful against point guards, allowing the most fantasy points per game to opponents at the position, and Paul should exploit that with big-time fantasy production.
