PG - Ish Smith (DET@OKC) - (FPPG: 24.2 & Salary: $5,200):

Ish Smith has now averaged just under 30 FPPG (29.9) in four out of his past six games thanks in large part to the amount of points, assists, rebounds, steals and three-pointers he accumulated in that time. He was also getting 30+ MPG in that stretch of play (his average this year is 29.2 MPG), which helped him keep his FP totals up and he should be in line for another heavy workload of minutes facing a Thunder team next that allows the 3rd most FPPG to opposing PG's this season. Smith also has a very low price tag at the moment, so he's a value play at this time who's an appealing start in all types of FanDuel contests today, especially in GPP/tourny play.

SG - Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (DET@OKC) - (FPPG: 23.6 & Salary: $5,100):

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has now impressively sported back-to-back-to-back 30+ FP games (averaging 21.3 PPG, 4.7 APG, 3 3PMPG, 2.3 RPG and 1.3 SPG in 34 MPG in that time) and next goes up against an Oklahoma City team that's defense has been average to just below average in the NBA in terms of the amount of FPPG they've given up to opposing shooting guards in their last 10 contests (when compared to all other NBA D's in that same span of contests). Caldwell-Pope is really locked in right now offensively and playing at a very high level, so it's a smart time to take advantage of that continuing development from a player who is pretty much a sure thing to get another high volume of minutes in this one (he has maintained a 33 MPG average on the season). He's another solid value play who is also ideal to give a go in any format later this evening on FD.

PG - Tyler Johnson (MEM@MIA) - (FPPG: 24.6 & Salary: $4,700):

If Goran Dragic (elbow) is out again, Tyler Johnson comes in as an extremely solid option to go with today if you're looking for a worthy cheap buy at the point guard position (and/or cheap buy, in general). In his last two games, Johnson has notably put up 19.5 PPG, 3.5 APG, 3.5 RPG, 1.5 SPG and 1 BPG (he's had 33.5 FPPG this stretch of contests) in 32.5 MPG. He goes up against a Memphis team next that's been one of the top 10 best teams in the league at minimizing opposing PG's FPPG, but they're closer to being one of latter 10 squads in that stat category than one of the better ones, so Johnson not doing well in this contest isn't a strong likelihood. Seemingly, he's also worth taking a chance on later today since he's coming in at a very nice price tag at the moment and when you factor that into his stellar play of late, he becomes a very tough player to pass up on right now in GPP/tourny play. This pick is my FanDuel NBA Sleeper Picks Bargain Bin Player of the Day.
