Frank Kaminsky, PF, Charlotte Hornets

FanDuel Price: $4,300
Projected FanDuel Points: 28.5
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.63

Frank Kaminsky's resurgence over the last few weeks shows no sign of slowing down. Since the calendar flipped to March, the Charlotte Hornets' big man has averaged 13.6 points and 5.3 rebounds in 23.4 minutes per game. He has finished with at least 21.9 FanDuel points in five of eight games.

Thanks to an injury to Cody Zeller, Kaminsky was able to stay on the court for more than 30 minutes for the first time this season on Sunday. He finished with a solid 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 21.9 FanDuel points against a tough Miami Heat frontcourt. Zeller is not expected to play again on Tuesday, giving Kaminsky another hefty dose of minutes in a much friendly matchup with the Joel Embiid-less Philadelphia 76ers.

When Embiid is off the court, the Sixers' defensive rating jumps 4.1 points (111.3), and opponent’s effective field goal percentage rises from 49.6% to 52.5%. For the season, the team has allowed 1.12 FanDuel points per minute to centers, and that is with Embiid playing 58 games.

With expanded minutes against a soft defense, it's no wonder Kaminsky comes in as our top value option on Tuesday's six-game slate.
