FanDuel daily picks: Fantasy basketball sleepers-December 14
SF—Bojan Bogdanovic ($3,900)
With Rondae Hollis-Jefferson out for the Brooklyn Nets, the starting job at the three belongs all to Bojan Bogdanovic. Given his potential as both a scorer and rebounder from the position and the fact that he’s priced below $4,000 on Monday night, there’s legitimately no reason not to have Bogdanovic in your lineup on Monday night.
Over his last three games—the time since he took over the role for the injured rookie Hollis-Jefferson—Bogdanovic hasn’t been the picture of consistency as his scores have ranged from 17.1 fantasy points to 30.5 fantasy points. However, two of those three games he has been over 26 points. At that price, having that kind of upside certainly makes him a quality sleeper pick.
Moreover, the matchup against the Orlando Magic is actually quite nice. As of late, the Magic have been giving up a ton of fantasy points to opposing small forwards, over 40 per game in their last 10 games. Considering the lack of depth in Brooklyn at the position, many of those points could go Bogdanovic’s way and he could score among the higher salary players at a great value.
