Allen Crabbe
Last Friday, Crabbe delivered one of his finest games of the 2015-16 campaign, dropping 20 points on an unsuspecting Charlotte Hornets squad. Keep Allen in mind for that aforementioned Houston clash: Last time the Blazers and the Rockets met, he racked up 15 points, five rebounds and a couple of steals, just the kind of stat line FanDuel players crave from a value play.
Ed Davis
As of late, Ed’s numbers haven’t been mind-blowing, but the digits FanDuel players appreciate are his minutes. In January, he’s seen the floor 21 minutes a night, and if he gets that kind of burn in Houston, he could be in for a nice night against a team who ranks near the bottom of the NBA in FanDuel points allowed to opposing power forwards.

(It’s probably no coincidence that all four of those games have been victories.) FanDuel players and Blazers fans alike are eager to see more time on the hardwood for Mr. Henderson.
Meyers Leonard
On too many nights, FanDuel players don’t have enough quality low-end options at center from which to choose. Enter Meyers Leonard, who’s topped 20 FanDuel points in five of his last seven games.

He’s put up 33-plus FanDuel points in each of his last five games, including a 44.7 masterpiece on January 23 against the Lakers. As of late, Lillard is one of the safer high-end players in all of FanDuelLand, so he can be deployed in your lineup early and often
