Jaylen Brown, SF, Boston Celtics

FanDuel Price: $4,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 29.8
Projected FanDuel Value: 6.62

With the four seed in the Eastern Conference wrapped up, the Boston Celtics are treating Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards as a bench game as they are resting six of their top seven players. The only player averaging over 25 minutes a game this season, that will suit up tonight, will be Jaylen Brown.

Brown is coming off a multi-game absence due to a back injury but was able to play nearly 26 minutes on Sunday. With the short bench on Tuesday, Brown is likley to play around 30 minutes in a starting role against the Wizards. In 15 games this season that he has played at least 30 minutes, Brown racked up 22.5 FanDuel points -- the total he needs to achieve optimal value on Tuesday (5.0 FanDuel points per $1,000 of salary) -- 13 times. In those 15 games, he averaged over 1.0 FanDuel points per minute while amassing 30.4 FanDuel points per game.

He should be able to have his way with the Wizards’ defense too as they have ranked 25th in points allowed and 28th in field goal percentage allowed since the All-Star break.
