FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Helper: Friday 6/18/21

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 two-game playoff slate, which locks at 7:30 PM Eastern.All injury updates are via the NBA's official injury report or numberFire's player news.Mike Conley ($7,500) - ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Conley is working towards a return for this pivotal Game 6, and as we saw with James Harden and the Brooklyn Nets, it's unlikely that he'll be on a restriction if he does suit up. Kevin Huerter ($4,200) - We're going to need some value plays in order to be able to afford tonight's studs, and numberFire's algorithm projects Huerter to be the top point-per-dollar option on the slate. Batum is our algo's top-projected scorer and value at the position tonight.Danilo Gallinari ($5,000) - Gallinari has garnered at least 20 fantasy points in six of his last nine games, including outputs of 26.1 and 34.8 in two of his last four.
