Kelly Oubre, SF, Phoenix Suns

FanDuel Price: $3,700
Projected FanDuel Points: 21.9
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.91

Another player going off on Tuesday was Kelly Oubre. The Phoenix Suns' forward finally had the game everyone was expecting following his trade from the Washington Wizards, as he exploded for a season-high 26 points with 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, and 1 block for a massive 48 FanDuel points. It was his third 40-plus FanDuel point performance of the season and first in a Suns’ uniform.

Oubre took advantage of Devin Booker being out of the Suns’ lineup, playing over 30 minutes for the first time since December 26. Even if Booker can suit up on Wednesday night versus the Dallas Mavericks -- which he is questionable to do -- Oubre’s big game has likely earned himself a larger in the Suns’ rotation.

With a near-minimum price tag, Oubre is worth the punt play on Wednesday as the forward needs just 18.5 FanDuel points to reach value. He has averaged 18.1 FanDuel points in his 10 games with the Suns even before Tuesday’s monster night.
