Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 3/21/17
Goran Dragic gets a fantasy-friendly matchup against the Phoenix Suns. Which other game scripts should you target?

Andre Drummond, C, Detroit Pistons

FanDuel Price: $7,800

When compared to his breakout season in 2015-16, Andre Drummond has been a bit disappointing this year. He is averaging 14.6 points, 13.9 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks per game -- nice totals but a step back from his All-Star campaign one year ago. However, over the last six weeks, the 23-year-old big man has become a fantasy force once again.

In his last 19 games, he has surpassed 30 FanDuel points 14 times while putting up six performances of 42-plus fantasy points. Since February 6th, he is averaging 36.4 fantasy points per night.

In a plus matchup with the Phoenix Suns on Saturday, he posted 18 points and 18 rebounds for 43.6 FanDuel points. The game on Tuesday against the Brooklyn Nets -- who boast the 27th-ranked defense against opposing centers -- looks even tastier.

Overall, the Nets own the worst defense in the Association, allowing 113.9 points per game while operating at the fastest pace in the league. Both factors contribute heavily to the Detroit Pistons being projected for a 109.75 implied point total -- slightly more than 8 points over their season average.

The game is projected to be one of the higher scoring ones of the night with an over/under of 214. In games with similar scripts -- according to the Rotoviz games splits app -- Drummond has averaged 42.8 FanDuel points per night, a 6.5-point increase over his season-long average.
