FanDuel Price: $4,500
The Kings have pretty much shut down Kosta Koufos, instead giving more minutes to youngsters Skal Labissiere, Willie Cauley-Stein, and Georgios Papagiannis. While all have played well, perhaps none have done more for their stock than Labissiere. The athletic young forward has topped 30 minutes in five of his past six games and has shown the ability to put up big totals -- he's posted performances of of 34.0, 40.7, and 46.2 FanDuel points over the past month.
He should get plenty of chances to shine as his Kings host the fast-paced Suns and are owners of the highest implied team total on the slate (111.5 points). That is nearly a 10-point boost from their season scoring average, which is the largest boost any team is expected to see tonight.
Labissiere should also benefit from the soft interior defense of the Suns, who have allowed the fifth-most FanDuel points to opposing power forwards and the third-most to centers.
With an expanded role, a favorable game script and a great matchup, Labissiere profiles as one of the slate's top power forward plays.
