A short five-game slate awaits us for Wednesday as we continue into the month of November. All five games feature projected totals of at least 208 points, but no game sports a spread of less than five and a half. This could make lineup construction a bit trickier than we’d normally see on a Wednesday. Let’s look at a tournament lineup for FanDuel tonight.

Point Guard
Stephen Curry (GS): $9,500 vs. MIN
A juicy matchup awaits Curry tonight, as Minnesota has struggled with opposing point guards this season. Curry and the Warriors are currently double-digit home favorites, but this contest does feature a projected total that is pushing 230 points. The star point guard needs 43 FDP to hit value, so not only is he fairly priced, but he also possesses upside in excess of that threshold, especially in a prime matchup.
Kyrie Irving (BOS): $8,900 vs. LAL
Irving and the Celtics host the Lakers tonight, who are a poor defensive team who also plays at the second-fastest clip in the league. This means that not only will Irving likely take full advantage of a great individual matchup, but he should also be in line for a few extra possessions as well.

Other Notables:
Shooting Guard
Tim Hardaway Jr. (NYK): $6,000 @ ORL
Hardaway is typically reliant on his scoring for his fantasy value, which can oftentimes introduce some risk. With just five games on tap and an absolutely awful shooting guard position to fill twice, this might be a good time to roll the dice in the hopes that Hardaway gets hot. This is a good matchup for him and this contest features the second-highest projected total of the evening, which should translate to some fantasy goodness in Orlando tonight.
Dion Waiters (MIA): $6,000 @ PHO
Waiters is penciled in as a starter tonight after he missed two games to attend the birth of his daughter. He should jump right back into his usual minutes and usage, which makes him a strong option given the nature of this matchup. Not only does Waiters draw a good individual matchup, but this is also a jump in pace for the Heat, so I don’t mind targeting a midrange option like Waiters tonight.
Other Notables:
Small Forward
Jaylen Brown (BOS): $5,500 vs. LAL
Back to Boston we go, as Brown sticks out as a solid value given his matchup in what should be a prime scoring environment. Brown has emerged as a strong scoring option alongside Kyrie Irving, and his ability to add rebounds to his statistical output only boosts his fantasy stock.
Reggie Bullock (DET): $3,000 vs. IND
With Stanley Johnson and Jon Leuer out, there are going to be some minutes open up tonight for several Pistons. After today’s shootaround, Stan Van Gundy hinted that he might employ some three-guard looks tonight against the Pacers, which should open up some chances for Bullock to produce. At minimum price, he only needs 17 FDP to hit value, and he creates a ton of flexibility to spend elsewhere.
Other Notables:
Power Forward
Kristaps Porzingis (NYK): $9,800 @ ORL
The Magic are a poor rebounding team, and I think Porzingis creates all sorts of mismatches against them tonight. Porzingis continues to thrive as the alpha option on this team, and he’s easily the top projected option at the position tonight.
Anthony Tolliver (DET): $3,000 vs. IND
As I stated earlier, the Pistons will be short a couple of bodies tonight, which should ensure Tolliver sees a boost in playing time tonight. While the distinct possibility that the Pistons employ a guard-heavy approach as mentioned above exists, Tolliver doesn’t need to do a ton to justify using him at minimum price tonight.
Other Notables:
Center
Nikola Vucevic (ORL): $8,200 vs. NY
The Knicks rank in the bottom third of the league against opposing centers, and with a good possibility that Vucevic gets overlooked, I think he makes for a great GPP play tonight. The big man continues to be a double-double threat on a nightly basis, and a newly added three-point shot has boosted his scoring ability a bit this season.
