FanDuel Price: $8,400
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
There are 22 NBA teams playing tonight. Your FanDuel lineup can only contain one center. So, it should come as no surprise that ownership will be spread thin.
Nikola Vucevic's ownership specifically will be knocked down due to the fact that he is priced right in between Rudy Gobert and Brook Lopez, who should be two of the most popular center plays on the board.
Also, Aaron Gordon has put up some huge numbers recently and is still priced conservatively. If he ends up being a chalky option, it would further depress Vucevic's ownership, because people will be inclined to avoid frontcourt teammates on such a large slate.
Why You Should Use Him:
Vucevic has played incredibly lately, outside of a game he got into early foul trouble against the Boston Celtics. If you take out that foul-ridden dud, he's averaged 41.9 FanDuel points in his past seven games.
He will take on the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight, who have really struggled defensively in the second half of the season. They've fallen all the way to 24th in defensive efficiency as a team after ranking dead last in the month of March.
The last time Vucevic faced Cleveland's struggling defensive unit, he was limited to just 28 minutes because it was his first game back from an Achilles injury. That was plenty of time for the big man to make his presence felt, though, as he posted 20 points, 15 rebounds, and 38 FanDuel points.
Vucevic has similar upside on Tuesday and should see more minutes as long as this game remains competitive. He is a terrific tournament pivot off the chalkier options at center.
