Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves

FanDuel Price: $10,600

Playoff contention or not, the Minnesota Timberwolves have continued to give Karl-Anthony Towns a huge workload down the stretch this season.

In 16 games over the past month, Towns has topped 40 minutes six times (including in each of his last two games), ranking fifth in the NBA with 37.9 minutes per game in that time.

He has turned that workload into a solid 46.9 FanDuel points per game -- flashing some huge upside with a 70-fantasy-point performance just two games ago -- and he should be in for another good game tonight.

The Houston Rockets, always a plus matchup in fantasy due to their high pace, have allowed top-three fantasy production to opposing centers this season. With their playoff spot locked up, Houston probably won't give their starters a ton of run tonight, meaning Towns' big minutes may come largely against backups.
