It's another Super Wednesday on FanDuel, and we have 11 games to sift through for tonight. There are a lot of high-priced stars to choose from, such as LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and DeMarcus Cousins. Therefore, it will be essential to find great value players in order to fit in the superstars you would like to roster. With that being said, let's take a look at the top five NBA bargains on FanDuel for Jan. 28.

5. Steven Adams - C - Oklahoma City Thunder ($4,400)

After experiencing some inconsistency with his minutes played, Steven Adams has averaged 30 minutes of court time over his last three games. During that span, he has averaged 26.1 fantasy points and is in a great spot to continue that trend against the New York Knicks tonight. The Knicks have been struggling to defend centers lately, and they're below average at it over the course of the season. Adams should be good for at least 22 to make value.

4. Patrick Beverley - PG - Houston Rockets ($5,300)

I feel like I've written up Patrick Beverley at least 10 times as a bargain pick, and there's good reason for it. He never seems to surpass the $6,000 threshold and has scored under 20 fantasy points in two out of his last 10 games. He gets to face a Dallas Mavericks team tonight that's been struggling mightily to defend PGs lately and have been ranked 23rd in that regard over their last three games. Beverley should score between 25-30.

3. Ryan Anderson - PF - New Orleans Pelicans ($5,100)

The New Orleans Pelicans face the Denver Nuggets tonight, and this is a dream matchup for any Pelicans PF. Clearly, Anthony Davis should have a monster game against Denver's defense that currently ranks 19th against opposing PFs. However, this also makes Ryan Anderson an excellent value option since he should see his fair share of minutes as well. He has averaged 30.5 fantasy points over his last two games and should flirt with 30 again tonight.

2. Louis Williams - SG - Toronto Raptors ($5,300)

Over his last six games, Sweet Lou has averaged 22.9 fantasy points and has settled into a nice groove with the Toronto Raptors. He gets to face the Sacramento Kings tonight, who currently rank 19th against opposing SGs, but they've been ranked dead last in that regard over their last three games. This bodes well for Williams to score at around 25-30 fantasy points, which would justify his current price of $5,300.

1. Wilson Chandler - SF - Denver Nuggets ($5,900)

I don't know what's gotten into Wilson Chandler these days, but I definitely like it. Over his past three games, the former DePaul Blue Demon has averaged 33.8 fantasy points and now gets to face the New Orleans Pelicans, who can't guard SFs at all. They're currently ranked 27th in that regard, and Chandler seems poised for another 30-plus performance, making him my top bargain player for tonight's contests.
