Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 4/12/17

Jordan Crawford, SG, New Orleans Pelicans

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Jordan Crawford has shown the ability to get into the upper 20's in terms of FanDuel points with some regularity, doing so in one-third of his games thus far, yet he still remains priced under $4,000. He's been thrust into an even further expanded role for the New Orleans Pelicans to close the season as they rest their primary scoring options, which has resulted in three consecutive games of 25-plus FanDuel points. He has averaged team-high 15 field goal attempts per game during that stretch.

He will likely be looking at nearly 30 minutes of playing time again tonight, as the Pels take on the Portland Trail Blazers, who rank 21st in defensive efficiency. Their implied team total currently sits at just 100 points, but with the potential availability of Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum still very much up in the air, it wouldn't be surprising to see that number rise throughout the day.

The Blazers have also struggled to defend the three-point line this season, allowing the fourth-highest three point percentage. Crawford has chucked 5.1 threes per game in his time with the Pelicans, so he will have every chance to exploit this weakness.
