Top Four Point Guards

  1. Russell Westbrook ($13,500) vs. Toronto Raptors
  2. Stephen Curry ($10,100) vs. Orlando Magic
  3. Dennis Schroder ($7,400) vs. Memphis Grizzlies
  4. Jeremy Lin ($5,900) vs. New York Knicks

Rationale:

  • Stephen Curry snapped out of his shooting slump by connecting five times from 3-point range on his 29th birthday, helping the Warriors clinch a 106-104 victory over Philadelphia. Throughout his career, Curry has thrived shooting against Orlando, converting 50 of 100 attempts from 3-point range against the Magic in 13 career games. Curry is shooting 50 percent or better from beyond the arc against two other opponents in his career: Washington and New York.
  • March has easily been the most productive month of the season for Jeremy Lin. Any FanDuel NBA lineups searching for a value play should take an extended look at Lin, as he has averaged 16.4 points, 3.9 assists, 3.3 rebounds and is connecting 2.1 times from long range. Tuesday against the Thunder, Lin scored a season-high 24 points, along with five assists, two rebounds, a steal and a block.
