5 NBA FanDuel Value Plays to Target on 2/27/19
Bruno Caboclo, SF, Memphis Grizzlies
FanDuel Price: $3,600
Projected FanDuel Points: 17.2
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.79
With Ivan Rabb doubtful to play on Wednesday with a heel injury, Bruno Caboclo is poised to see extended minutes in the Memphis Grizzlies' rotation, and possibly even a start. The versatile forward has played more than 20 minutes in a game eight times this season and is likely to do so again against the Chicago Bulls. In those eight games, Caboclo finished with at least 18.5 FanDuel points six times while averaging 19.8 FanDuel points per game. That would give the Grizzlies forward 5.5 FanDuel points per $1,000 of salary on Wednesday.
In his brief time with Memphis, Caboclo has already faced the Bulls and done exceptionally well. While he played just 10.4 minutes back on February 13, he finished with 8 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists for 17 FanDuel points. On Wednesday, he is likely to see the bulk of his minutes at power forward with Rabb likely out. The Bulls have struggled to defend the position, allowing above average FanDuel points per minute, with Lauri Markkanen allowing those he defends to shooting over 48% from the field.
