Jimmy Butler, SF, Chicago Bulls

FanDuel Price: $9,900

Jimmy Butler is one of the three players who has seen more playing time than Towns over the past month and is averaging 38.3 minutes per game -- the highest mark for any player with at least two games played in that time.

His workload has been especially big since Dwyane Wade went down for the season. He has averaged 39.4 minutes per game over those 10 contests -- which he has turned into an average of 50.5 FanDuel points per game.

He draws a plus matchup tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers, a team that ranks bottom-10 in defensive rating since the All-Star break.

While he's a very strong play regardless of whether or not Rajon Rondo suits up, Rondo sitting would make him an especially valuable fantasy asset, as Butler a huge 37.1% usage rate in the 602 minutes he has played with both Wade and Rondo off the floor this season, averaging 1.5 FanDuel points per minute in that time.
