FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Helper: Friday 1/15/21

Our projections update up until tip-off to reflect current news and we also have player news updates.We'll also be coming at you with this primer every day, breaking down a few of the day's top plays at each position.Please note: When I'm referencing a player's value figure, it is the number of fantasy points scored for every $1,000 in salary. Typically, a value figure of 5.0 (meaning, 5.0 FanDuel points for every $1,000 in salary) is the minimum baseline we'll be targeting.Let's take a look at who you should target on tonight's eight-game slate, which locks at 7:30 PM Eastern Time.After playing 38.4 and 36.4 minutes in his last two games, respectively, De'Aaron Fox ($7,300) is seemingly back to full health. Beverley has surpassed 26 fantasy points in three of his last five, and our model projects him to be the best value at the position. Our model projects him for 24.1 FanDuel points and a value figure of 5.35. Brown has had at least 49.8 fantasy points in half of his games this season, and he'd need 45 to achieve our baseline value. Our model projects him to outscore Davis and to be the fourth-best value at the position.The Hawks have allowed the second-most fantasy points to power forwards this season, which is probably why Bojan Bogdanovic ($4,300) is projected to be the second-best value at power forward. Needing 21.5 FanDuel points to achieve a value figure of 5.0, Bogdanovic has posted at least 21.9 in 6 of his 11 outings this season. Collins would need 34 fantasy points to achieve a baseline value figure of 5.0, and he's failed to reach that number in 6 of his 10 games this campaign. The issue is that KAT would need 54 fantasy points to accrue a 5.0 value figure, and that's a number he has yet to reach this season.
