Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 3/10/17
Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves
FanDuel Price: $10,600
Ever since his first day in the NBA, Karl-Anthony Towns has been a player to be reckoned with for the Minnesota Timberwolves. But over his last seven games, he has taken things to another level.
Since February 15, the second-year big man is averaging 27.1 points, 17.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game. He scored at least 44 FanDuel points in each contest while posting a 67.9-point behemoth of a performance two weeks ago. Towns has averaged a cool 51.0 fantasy points during this stretch.
On Friday, he will be in line for another big night, as he plays the Golden State Warriors. While the Warriors are middle-of-the-road in allowing fantasy points to opposing centers -- 14th-worst to be exact -- they've ranked dead last in rebounding rate (46.8%) since Kevin Durant's injury. They have also given up the second-most rebounds to opponents in those five games (46.8 per game). Since the All-Star break, Towns leads the league with 16.7 boards per game.
The over/under of this matchup is 216.5, which can help the big man's fantasy production. According to the Rotoviz game splits app, in the nine games Towns has played this year with a game total of 216 or more, he has averaged 50.1 FanDuel points; a nine-point increase over the rest of his games played.
