It's another Super Wednesday for the NBA on FanDuel, and there is a substantial plate of 10 games to sift through. Usually in larger game slates like this, there are many value players to be found. Keeping the same mindset that a value play is any player that costs under $6000, let's take a look at the top five bargain plays for what should be a very exciting evening.

5. PG Greivis Vasquez - Toronto Raptors - $3900

On Tuesday, Vasquez only needed 19.5 fantasy points to match his price tag and ended the night with 27.3. On Wednesday, he once again has a great matchup against a Utah Jazz team that's progressively getting worse at defending PGs. As a matter of fact, Utah is ranked 28th in that department over their last three games. Choose Vasquez with confidence.

4. SG Danny Green - San Antonio Spurs - $4900

Many people may be off of Danny Green after his 14.8 fantasy point dud in his last outing. However, don't let recency bias get the best of you as Green has a habit of making up for bad nights. The last time that he scored 15 fantasy points, he followed it up with a 35-point performance. The same thing could happen against a Brooklyn Nets team that's ranked last in defending SGs. Green needs 24.5 to reach his value and is a safe pick.

3. SF K.J. McDaniels - Philadelphia 76ers - $4700

With Tony Wroten sidelined and the news that Alexey Shved won't play either, K.J. McDaniels will see as many minutes as he can handle. He has performed very well since being inserted into the starting SG role and has averaged 32.5 fantasy points over his last three game. He needs to score 23.5 against a Minnesota Timberwolves team ranked 29th against SGs. Don't forget that McDaniels plays SG even though he's listed at SF.

2. PF Nikola Mirotic - Chicago Bulls - $4800

Taj Gibson has officially been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets, and this bodes well for the young forward. Over his last eight games, Mirotic has averaged 26.3 fantasy points per contest. This type of production can be expected as long as Gibson remains on the shelf, and Mirotic shouldn't have an issue scoring the 24 points he needs to justify his price against a Hornets team ranked 19th against PFs.

Just because the 76ers can't seem to win a game, it doesn't mean that they don't provide fantasy goodness. Henry Sims is a good example of that statement as he may the top value center for Wednesday. He's been averaging 22.3 fantasy points per game over his last four contests, and gets to face the Minnesota Timberwolves and their league-worst defense against opposing centers. Sims looks poised to at least score 24.5 and justifying his price.
