Kyle O'Quinn, C, Indiana Pacers

FanDuel Price: $3,900
Projected FanDuel Points: 19.9
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.11

Also getting a boost from a player sitting out with injury is Kyle O'Quinn. The Indiana Pacers' big man is expected to see significant minutes on Wednesday night versus the Dallas Mavericks as Domantas Sabonis sits out with an ankle injury. While O’Quinn was a DNP-CD on Monday night, he was in the starting lineup in the previous two games for Indy as he filled in for Myles Turner upfront.

In both games, O’Quinn played at least 20 minutes, finishing with an average of 8.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.5 steals for 26.6 FanDuel points per game. In the six games O’Quinn has played at least 15 minutes this season, the big man has scored at least 19.5 FanDuel points -- the total he needs to reach optimal 5.0-times value -- in every contest. In those games, he is averaging excellent production with 29.6 FanDuel points per game and 1.41 FanDuel points per minute.

Facing the Mavericks on Wednesday will help O’Quinn, too, as Dallas has given up the second-most rebounds (52.0 per game) in the league since the All-Star break. Mavs’ opponents have also dropped an average of 120.0 points in the three games.
